e) Energy management
All loads are only turned on when required.
All the loads in the school buildings are turned
off when there are no occupants in the room,
except for equipment that is required to operate
round–the-clock, such as refrigerators. For
the teachers’ quarters, a load limiter device is
installed to manage the extra load that may be
used. The electricity cuts off automatically when
the maximum allowable electricity power and/or
daily energy use reaches the allocated quota.
The adaptation of the system design concepts
has led CKE to be awarded the ASEAN Energy
Award 2016 under the Renewable Energy: Best
Practice Off-Grid Power category as shown in
