Program Design in Malaysia
Carbon/Energy Reporting ProgramLow Carbon Society (LCS) Plans in Malaysia• UTM and AIM have collaborated with City of Putrajaya and Iskandar Region
Development Authority to create low carbon society plans (and completed).
• Both of these cities are now moving on to the next stage “implementation”
to realize low carbon society.

Necessity of Monitoring Scheme• In order to accomplish low carbon society certainly, progress and/or
achievement of policies have to be checked periodically.
• Thus, monitoring of policy implementation is indispensable in implementation stage.

Best Practice in Tokyo••Tokyo Metropolitan Government (TMG) has operated Carbon Reduction Reporting
Program for mid-small scale buildings, which aims to enhance mitigation actions.
The program asks buildings to monitor and report their CO2 emission as well as
mitigation actions taken by owners and/or tenants.

1. Energy Consumption and CO2 Emission in Previous FY- Calculate CO2 emissions from previous FY’s fuel, energy, electricity, water and sewerage use

2. Mitigation Actions Taken in Previous FY- Choose measures taken from 255 option menu which has been categorized by TMG

• We works together with Putrajaya Corporation (PJC) and Iskandar Region
Develop-ment Authorities to design and introduce a reporting program inthese cities.
• Trainings, workshops and intensive discussions many times among bothcities’ staffs, TMG’s staffs and experts have been conducted so far.

Putrajaya• In order to introduce the programme smoothly, the target buildings shall be
expanded gradually.
• Expected impacts are estimated according to Putrajaya Green City 2025.

Proposed Scheme and its Impact
Case in Iskandar Malaysia

Proposed Scheme••

IskandarBuilding submits reports summarizing their energy usage, emissions and actions tothe authorities annually.
IRDA and/or 5-Las assess(s) the achievements of actions, provide(s) feedbacks andsupports to encourage building to take actions.

11Expected Impacts of the ProgrammeIskandar• Expected impacts of the programme are estimated according to Low Carbon
Society Blue Print for Iskandar Malaysia towards 2025.
• Expected energy saving amount is around 380 ktoe in 2025 at maximum
which corresponds to around 2,000 kt CO2. Accompanying cost saving willreach around MYR 1.3 (US$ 0.3) billion.

Emission Reduction: abt 2,000 ktCO2
Cost Saving: abt MYR 1.3 (US$ 0.3) billion

Conclusion

Conclusion• UTM and AIM have collaborated with City of Putrajaya andIskandar Region Develop-ment Authority to create low carbon
society plans and completed.
• Both cities are now moving on to the implementation stage tocreate LCS. In implementation stage, monitoring of policy
implementation is indispensable.
• Collaborative team comprised by UTM/TMG/AIM is trying totransfer the reporting program which has been implemented byTMG.
• The proposed Reporting Programs are expected to contributeemission reduction in Putrajaya (abt 600 ktCO2 at maximum)and Iskandar (abt 2,000 ktCO2 at maximum).
• Various positive feedbacks are expected through theimplementation of the Program.
