KUCHING: Sarawak expects to reduce the carbon footprint from land transport here by 15% in 2030 with an eco-friendly integrated transport system, says Tan Sri Abang Johari Tun Openg.

The Sarawak Premier said this was part of the state's commitment to clean energy, limiting global warming and reaching net zero emissions.

"In a business-as-usual scenario, this figure will continue rising to reach one-third of all emissions by 2040," he said when opening the fifth International Digital Economy Conference Sarawak here on Tuesday . He said a hydrogen-powered autonomous rail rapid transit system was also in the process of being introduced in Kuching.

"Traffic data is used to synchronise the traffic lights to reduce congestion, travel time and greenhouse gas emissions," he said.
