Brunei Climate Change Secretariat
This strategy seeks to strengthen Brunei Darussalam''s resilience against climate change risks and increase its capacity to adapt to the impacts of the changing climate. Brunei
The Brunei government has pledged to enhance renewable energy, particularly solar PV, in order to assure the growth of sustainable energy. Brunei also intended to build the Temburong Smart City, which would mostly rely on solar energy and be dubbed the "Green Jewel of Brunei."
New techniques and technologies will be needed to decarbonise these areas. In 2014, Brunei adopted a strategic plan to achieve 10% share of renewables in the national energy mix by 2035. The plan provides the outline to introduce renewable energy policy and regulatory frameworks and to scale-up market deployment of solar PV.
Brunei also intended to build the Temburong Smart City, which would mostly rely on solar energy and be dubbed the "Green Jewel of Brunei." However, Brunei has only put in 1.2 MW of solar as of now as a demonstration project. It's reasonable to assume that the implementation of renewable energy is still in its infancy.
To address this, the government plans to bring new power plants online by 2027–2028 using Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) technology, pushing efficiency past 35%. Alongside infrastructure upgrades, Brunei's climate policy mandates a minimum efficiency of 48% for new plants and aims for 30% renewable energy, primarily solar, by 2035.
