- Kimanis Power Plant is one of the initiatives under "Power Up Sabah" plan, which is a key component of the Sabah Development Corridor Blueprint 2008-2015.

- KPSB is on track to deliver the first phase of the power plant in December 2013 as the project is currently 80% completed and ahead of schedule.
Upon completion and operation of all 3 blocks in April 2014, this plant is expected to be an important component of the state's electricity supply grid, catering to Sabah's increasing demand for electricity – in tandem with its rapid industrial and economic growth.
Encik Samsudin Miskon
Chairman, Kimanis Power Sdn Bhd
- The project is one of the major spin-offs from the proposed Sabah Oil & Gas Terminal project, also located in Kimanis, which is being implemented by PETRONAS Carigali Sdn Bhd.
The power plant will use the natural gas produced from the offshore fields in Sabah, which will be landed at and supplied by the terminal.
