Malaysian government to be first government abroad to break the curve
Malaysia is in the process of concluding a Curve Breaker Agreement with the Trust in order to reduce energy consumption in Malaysian government facilities. The collaboration will cover 50 buildings.
Malaysian delegation in Denmark
This unusual collaboration between the Trust and Malaysia began following an official visit to Denmark by a Malaysian government delegation. Following a presentation of the Trust’s tools, the delegation thought it would be a good idea to take them back to Malaysia.
Malaysian Prime Minister taking the lead
Judin Abdul Karim, the Director General of Public Works in Malaysia explained that as a result of the collaboration with the Trust a new branch had been set up with responsibility for saving energy in the Prime Minister’s Office and his own ministry. The Trust has supplied a number of tools including ‘Se Elforbrug’ (View Electricity Consumption) which can help to monitor future progress and benchmark against other buildings.
Plug and play solutions provide solutions for intelligent control
The Trust’s plug and play solutions operate via a normal Internet connection and allow staff to go online to check temperature and humidity, switch on a web camera, or even allow a person in Denmark to switch off the light in the Director General’s office. Judin Abdul Karim is enthusiastic about the collaboration, and is delighted that the Trust will be helping to incentivise his staff to save electricity.
