main energy consumption in the airports are in
the form of electricity which is classified under
Airports Council International (ACI) as Scope
2 indirect energy consumption. In comparison
with the fuel usage by airport-owned vehicles for
business operation, electricity makes up more
than 90% of energy consumption. Therefore, our
efforts are directed towards effectively monitoring,
analysing and optimising electricity usage. The
total electricity consumed by our airports has
seen a slight decrease in 2017 despite increased
passenger movements. This indicates the success
of the initiatives towards efficient energy. In fact,
electricity usage per passenger has decreased by
10.4% from 2016 to 2017, which is 2.5 times the
reduction from 2015 to 2016.
ENERGY SAVING INITIATIVES
Managing energy consumption and greenhouse
gas (GHG) emissions is critical in the current
economic and regulatory environment. Before
the implementation of effective solutions to
improve energy performance, Malaysia Airports’
energy consumption was systematically labelled
and monitored both internally and externally.
In compliance with Efficient Management of
Electrical Energy Regulation (EMEER) 2008,
Malaysia Airports implemented the Energy
Management Information System (EMIS) initiated
by the Energy Commission (EC). Through EMIS,
energy performance data can be efficiently
reviewed, verified and managed by the appointed
Energy Manager (EM). Data submission to the EC
is also accelerated as EMIS uses an online system

which allows users to submit energy performance
data online. As a result, manual submission by the
EM is no longer needed.
In managing energy efficiently, internal
monitoring is an effective approach. An e-Energy
Dashboard was introduced by Malaysia Airports
as a tool to monitor abnormalities in energy
consumption trends of airport operations and
database activities. This system also includes
the Operation Information System (OIS) which
serves relevant needs such as graft analysis,
meter status and tariff detail. Data collected
is used for identifying trends in performance
analysis, reporting for all airports, and top
management reviews. The e-Energy Dashboard
also contains details such as electricity bills,
maximum demand performance, monthly energy
profiles and communication between airport and
management. These reports facilitate energy
performance or profile analysis. If an abnormality
is detected, the technical team at airports
can then responded immediately to rectify it.
Information for justifications on energy savings
projects and proposals can be extracted from this
system. The next enhancements to be added are
the live interface of performance indicators versus
actual data for all airports to monitor their own
energy profiles.
To ensure efficient implementation of energy
management, the Airport Energy Management
Committee (AEMC) was established with the
objective to introduce the Airpor t Energy
Efficiency Programme Initiative (AEEPI) at the
airport level. This programme will assist in the
reporting and analysis of energy consumption
using data ex tracted from the e -Energ y
