Station Janaeletrik Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz or Kapar Energy Vetures

Located 56km west of Kuala Lumpur , off the coastal road between Port Klang and Kuala
Selangor facing the straits of Malacca.
SJSSAA is the 2nd largest power plant in Malaysia with a generating capacity of 2420MW.
The only power station in Malaysia with triple fuel firing capability(gas, oil and coal)
Planning for the power plant started in late 1970 by NEB while the construction work commenced
in 1981. It was constructed on a reclaimed mangrove swampland.
The plant is officially opened by Sultan Selangor on 14/3/1987.
After about 20year of operation under LLN and TNB, KEV is formed as an IPP on 9th July 2004
and fully run with the equity of 60% TNB and 40% Malakoff.

Safety, Quality, Health &

Environment
KEV Commitment to the EIA process was in place since 1979, long before it became a legal
requirement in 1988
EIA studies were conducted :
Jun 1979 : Phase 1
Sep 1982 : Phase 2
Oct 1989 : Post EIA
Phase 1&2
Aug 1991 : Phase 3 & 4
All environmentally sensitive areas are identified and monitored to ensure all environmental
standards set by the Department of Environment (DOE) are well met
