How to save energy in Car parking lighting-The Mines

The Mines shopping located in Serdang is currently under I Capital Mall management. A lot of face lifting projects within shopping complex had transformed  The Mines as one of the main attraction within Klang Valley region.

Car parking lighting in The Mines also part of their management initiative to save energy and conserve the energy.

From my observation, conventional fluorescent lightings (T8- 45W) in their car parking lighting system are not longer been used and all replaced by T3  energy saving fluorescent lighting (18W).

As we all realized that car parking lighting system are operating in 24 hours basic and replacement of T3 fluorescent lighting contributing energy saving up to 60% in electricity bill can be realized with minimal capital investment.

Furthermore, motion sensors and de-lamp system also incorporated in their car parking bay to allow individual lighting to light up when customers approach to their car parking.

Overall, implementation of energy saving in car parking lighting should also consider safety of customers as their first priority!!

Putting Our Faith Into Actions Educates World's Community

For very simple reason Mr. Rashid Khan will soon going home with big heart to his motherland village in Pakistan, because he now knows what is Solar Power is all about. 

I donated 40W Solar PV to Mr. Rashid Khan so that he could go home delivering green technology to his community.

Mr. Rashid Khan can now light up his children table lamps with energy saving LED bulbs.

Helping out in world's community with little PV can be a small action that makes a big difference to children.

There are many ways to help the communities but these are just some of my favorites.


That was a good initiative for a start. Hope this deed will has a domino or ripple effect for others to follow.

Keep it up and god bless you.

Proposal to raise green loan ceiling to RM100m

PUTRAJAYA: There's a strong interest from the industry that the green loan ceiling for green energy producers be raised to RM100 million, said Malaysian Green Technology Corp acting chief executive officer Ahmad Zairin Ismail.

The Green Technology Financing Scheme, established in 2010, be-nefits companies which are produ-cers (up to RM50 million for 15 years) and users (up to RM10 million for 10 years) of green technologies.

"We receive positive feedback from the industry, particularly the biomass, biogas and biofuel producers. In order to speed up the process of getting more palm oil millers to generate more green power, it is proposed that the ceiling cap of RM50 million on green loans be raised to RM100 million," he said.

Palm oil millers in Malaysia are leading the way in "greening" the palm oil supply chain by capturing greenhouse gases before it enters the atmosphere and turning it into green energy and organic fertiliser.

Under the Palm Oil National Key Economic Area of the Economic Transformation Programme, the country is targeting 500 biogas plants by 2020.

By leveraging on home-grown green technologies, millers trap methane from the sludge and channel it to gas engines to generate electricity.

Zairin noted that palm oil millers, timber processors and rubber glove makers who use biomass to fuel their boilers are also eligible to apply for pioneer status and investment tax allowance.

The pioneer status, granted under the Promotion of Investments Act 1986, provides a 10-year income tax break for renewable energy businesses. 

There is also a full tax allowance on qualifying five-year capital expenditure. Unused allowances can be carried forward until fully absorbed.

All applications for pioneer status, investment tax allowance and exemptions from import duty and sales tax must be submitted to the Malaysian Industrial Development Authority. 

Zairin was speaking to Business Times on the sidelines of the Biomass Industry Networking Se-minar organised by the Malaysia Biomass Industries Confederation here yesterday.

He said the 2013 Budget had raised the target of the Green Technology Financing Scheme to RM3.5 billion and the implementation deadline is extended until the end of 2015.

Under the scheme, the government bears two per cent of the total interest/profit rate and guarantees 60 per cent of the green loan via Credit Guarantee Corp Malaysia Bhd, with the remaining 40 per cent financing risks borne by banks.
