Summary: | The addition of renewable energy as the fifth source of Fuel Policy which was formulated under the 8th Malaysia Plan (20012005) to reduce dependency on fossil fuel and to address the rising global concern about climate change. This study is specifically on the GHG emissions from the consumption electricity are considered to be indirect emissions by the GHG Protocol guideline and effectiveness of using solar power Energy in order to calculate the current carbon footprint from electricity consumed at UTM and using Photo Voltaic (PV) as a renewable energy for reduce CO2 emission. |
