GEORGE TOWN, — Tenaga Nasional Berhad’s (TNB) monopole transmission tower project is expected to be completed by the end of November.
The RM500 million project, launched in late 2022, features an 8.5km overhead transmission line running parallel to the iconic Penang Bridge.
“The primary objective of this monopole transmission tower project is to strengthen the island’s power supply via overhead line transmission, ensuring reliable and efficient electricity distribution across the state,” TNB’s group corporate communications stated when contacted by Malay Mail.
Upon completion, the monopole transmission towers will transmit 2,000 megawatts (MW) of electricity to Penang.
