UTM has implemented the Sustainable Energy Management Program (SEMP) to reduce its energy consumption and carbon footprint. As part of SEMP, UTM conducted energy audits, installed energy meters and energy-efficient lighting, established an energy management committee and policies, and conducted training and awareness campaigns involving the campus community. While initial initiatives lacked organization, SEMP has led to more structured energy management practices across campus. Challenges remain in sustaining efforts and reaching all stakeholders, but a low-cost approach and top management support have already achieved energy and cost savings without compromising operations.

39. Friday, June 10, 2011, 10.36 PM UTM installs energy-saving lamps on campus grounds UNIVERSITI Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) had installed more than 25,000 (from the 70,000 units planned) energy-saving lamps throughout its buildings in a move to cut cost and reduce the emission of greenhouse gases. Its vice-chancellor Professor Datuk Dr ZainiUjang said the university targets a five per cent reduction in gas emission this year and this is in line with UTM's greenhouse gas reduction awareness programme. Minister of Natural Resources and Environment Datuk Seri Douglas UnggahEmbas was the guest-of-honour.Prof Zaini said electricity cost had gone up from 12 to 15 per cent from 2004 to 2009. He added UTM had set up an environment-friendly campus policy

45. Energy Policy Statement ……to establish a sustainable energy management system to enable continuous, effective and widespread implementation of energy efficiency and conservation practices across all PTJs. The process and procedure adopted shall enable the establishment of measurable energy reduction Targets and Energy Index without compromising reliability, comfort and safety. The energy management system will be driven and motivated by creative and innovative initiatives…

46. Immediate goals To conduct training & awareness programme towards establishing a culture of conservation within UTM campus community. To initiate an energy award scheme to encourage creative and innovative energy management solution and sharing of best practices from within UTM To strengthen energy management procedure and organizational structure as well as information and recording systems To implement appropriate measures to reduce energy consumption through the change of behavior, improved housekeeping practices, maintenance, operation and purchasing for new equipment

47. long-term objectives are To establish a sustainable energy management system and a culture of conservation within the campus community To reduce carbon emission through efficient energy management To reduce dependency on fossil fuel To utilize renewable energy To be a leader in energy sustainability and to promote the best practices

48. Methodology 32

49. Methodology (detailed) Appoint Energy Manager Develop a well written energy policy Form an effective energy management committee Set-up energy accounting centres Determine energy efficiency index Develop working manual and tools for EM Develop energy management working procedures Outline investment appraisal for energy efficiency Develop human resource in EMS Prepare comprehensive documentation in EMS 33

65. History on Energy Management Activities on Energy Management were continuously done but only after February 2011, where 30 personnel from most of the EAC/PTJ were sent for Energy Manager Training. There were 3 meetings and 1 workshop on UTM Sustainable Energy Management were done since then. 49
