The Pencawang Elektrik SESB is a key infrastructure asset in Malaysia's power generation grid, located on the continent of Asia. Designated as a fossil fuel electricity generation station, the facility features an installed capacity of 0 MW. Its primary operation relies on harnessing gas energy resources to generate bulk electricity. The plant's operating entity is not publicly declared in national utility registries. An exact commissioning date for the installation is not registered in official historical logs. In terms of domestic production capacity within Malaysia, Pencawang Elektrik SESB occupies the #61 position among all operational gas power plants. Its 0 MW capacity represents a 0.00% share of Malaysia's total installed gas generating capacity, which currently stands at 42,003 MW. The largest operational gas installation in Malaysia is the Kapar Energy Ventures (KEV) with an output of 2,420 MW, making the Pencawang Elektrik SESB approximately 1.0 times smaller by comparison. Across all fuel types and electricity generation technologies country-wide, this facility accounts for 0.0000% of Malaysia's aggregate generation capacity of 79,583 MW. Based on historical capacity factors characteristic of gas power plants (modeled at 40% for analysis), the facility's expected annual electricity generation is calculated at approximately 0 MWh. Applying domestic consumption statistics where an average household in Malaysia consumes 3 MWh of electricity annually, this level of production is sufficient to meet the energy demands of roughly 0 homes. By utilizing traditional thermal power processes, the station delivers reliable dispatchable energy to the grid, supporting grid resilience during periods of low renewable resource availability and satisfying industrial base-load demands. The physical site of the station is located at geographic coordinates 6.3586° latitude and 116.4302° longitude. Analysis of local grid infrastructure shows a density of other assets within a 50-kilometer radius. These nearby facilities include the Ranhill Powertron (IPP) (gas-fired, 190 MW), the Teluk Salut Power Plant (gas-fired, 190 MW), the Rugading Power Plant (gas-fired, 190 MW), representing a cluster of localized power assets. This geographic placement is vital for reinforcing regional distribution infrastructure and minimizing transmission line losses across this sector of Malaysia.
