| Seminar
on "Energy Audit of
Common Services of Selected HDB Residential Blocks - Findings and Recommendations"
15 Oct 2004 The
seminar was organised by the National Environment Agency (NEA) and PREMAS International
Limited.  | PREMAS
completed its energy audit of the common services of 40 typical HDB blocks in
July 2004.This energy audit project was supported
by NEA's Innovation
for Environmental Sustainability (IES) Fund.
Assoc Prof Koo Tsai Kee,
Chairman of the NEEC, gave the opening address. He emphasised the importance of
managing the energy bill when operating town councils. | | | |
This
was because by improving energy efficiency and reducing electricity consumption,
Town Councils were helping to reduce air pollution produced during power generation,
hence contributing to the national environmental goal of Clean Air.
The
findings from PREMAS' energy audit could suggest ways Town Councils could manage
their estate's energy consumption. Assoc Prof Koo also welcomed more such projects
to apply for IES funding. | | | Dr
Lal Jayamaha, Director of the PREMAS Energy Centre, presented the findings and
recommendations arising from the energy audit to the participants, which included
representatives from the Town Councils. |
