PETALING JAYA: Energy efficiency retrofit projects can achieve up to 40% or more in energy savings depending on the condition of a building, a previous project by local energy service companies has shown.

Malaysia Association of Energy Service Companies president Zulkifli Zahari said energy service companies had participated and provided input to the Building Sector Energy Efficiency Project (BSEEP), which was co-funded by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and carried out with relevant government and private stakeholders.
