REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA - The plan of state electricity company PLN to export electricity to Singapore is hampered as Singapore Energy Market Authority (SEMA) has not unauthorized the electricity import regulation.

"PLN will wait until SEMA issues the regulation on electricity import," Executive Director of PLN, Nur Pamudji, said on Monday.

He explained that Singapore had different characteristic from Malaysia. PLN has exported electricity to Malaysia through an agreement with Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB). "Singaporean market has a more liberal character," he said.

PLN and TNB have also signed an agreement in October 15 to export electricity to Peninsular Malaysia. The agreement says that PLN will export 600 mega watt electricity to Malaka.
