Procurement Strategy: Energy
Performance Contract (EPC)
Energy Performance Contract (EPC) is an
innovative contract that is entered into
between any Malaysia Airports subsidiary
and an Energy Service Company (ESCO) to
finance a cost-effective energy efficiency
project. There is no capital expenditure
from Malaysia Airports but is shared in
terms of cost savings from the project. In
2015, an EPC Framework was established
and endorsed by management which is

RENEWABLE ENERGY
KLIA has 19MW solar photovoltaic (PV) Systems
located at the KLIA Ground Mount (5MW),
Roof Top Contact Pier and Satellite Building
(4MW) as well as Long Term Car Park (10MW),
commissioned in Nov 2013. The main purpose
of this project is to reduce carbon emissions
and dependency on the electricity grid while
supporting the MAHB’s Energy Policy to reduce
carbon emissions by 40% by 2020, as pledged
by the Prime Minister at the time in Copenhagen
(COP-15), in December 2009. The project
was supported by Ministry of Energy, Green
Technology and Water (KeTTHA) and Sustainable
Energy Development Authority (SEDA) under
Feed In-Tariff (F-i-T) programme. The Solar PV at
KLIA Ground Mount is connected to TNB grid and
14MW is connected to KLIA’s internal grid. Solar
PV systems are able to generate an average of
18,808 MWh, equivalent to a reduction of 13,938
tCO 2 per year and reducing the dependency on
the electricity grid by 7% yearly. This reduction
is equivalent to 2,097 houses that use electrical
energy for one year and reduces 6,989 tonnes

Energy Management System, EnMS 50001:2011
In 2017, the Kota Kinabalu International Airport
became the first airport to be certified with ISO
50001:2011, which is a voluntary standard that
details the continuous improvement of quality
and environmental management through the
development of an Energy Management System
(EnMS). The standard specifies requirements
applicable to energ y use, including the
measurement, documentation and reporting,
design and procurement practices for equipment,
systems, processes and personnel that contribute
to energy performance.
Green Building Recognition
KLIA’s second terminal - KLIA2 was designed
to be an icon among energy efficient buildings
in Malaysia, with a wide range of innovative
initiatives addressing the seven criteria of
Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
(LEED). In achieving these initiatives, the KLIA2
Terminal Building was awarded the LEED Gold
rating and KLIA2’s Integrated Complex was
awarded the LEED Silver rating in June 2017. On
the environmental front, KLIA was awarded the
Airports Council International (ACI) Asia-Pacific
