Bandar Seri Begawan[a] (BSB) is the capital and largest city of Brunei. It is officially a municipal area (kawasan bandaran) with an area of 100.36 square kilometres (38.75 sq mi) and an estimated population of 64,409 as of 2025.
This milestone represents Brunei Darussalam's largest government-led solar project to date and the first large-scale solar initiative under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP). It underscores the nation's commitment to diversifying its energy mix and pursuing low-carbon development as part of its decarbonisation agenda.
The Marine Department keeps track of use and bills the ship's agent. The Bandar Seri Begawan Municipal Board is credited with the money received from these water sales. Between the city and Victoria Harbour, a passenger boat that also transports mail runs every day (except for Sundays).
“With our extensive experience in providing engineering and construction services in the oil and gas industry, Serikandi is well-positioned to seize emerging opportunities in Brunei Darussalam's growing new and renewable energy sector—opening up job opportunities for Bruneian citizens,” he added.
