INGENIEUR building is also reduced by considering the building orientation. This will help to reduce high energy demand in the long run. Apart from new building design, energy-saving awareness programmes and the efficient usage of energy should be implemented so that more savings can be made. There are several methods that can be carried out as shown in the energy- saving recommendations. Energy saving measures ‘without cost’ as proposed in this article can help reduce energy consumption with immediate returns. To get an estimate of the overall energy savings, the savings from both active and passive systems must be accounted for to realize the value of the planned savings programmes. Also the involvement of residents is necessary so that energy saving targets may be achieved. This study also concludes that in order to optimize the cost of electrical energy, the involvement of society in energy saving is important as it will not only benefit every consumer in the country, but will also prepare for future energy saving.
