Description
Summary:The global warming arouse the awareness of the public in the energy saving. New energy saving technology is appearing and developing rapidly, at the same time energy regeneration or alternative technology is developing in large scale. Electricity consumption in Universiti Teknologi Mara (campus UiTM Shah Alam) is very high indeed where it has reached a high of bills per month. The consumption of electricity comes from PTAR, Bangunan Canseleri, hostels, Pusat Islam, Bangunan Sains & Teknologi, Bangunan Pendaftaran and street lighting. This paper presents the feasibility study of installing E-Clean Energy Saver indoor unit which is based on semiconductor chip at the Air Handling Unit (AHU). It uses certain wavelength of infrared light to stabilize the vibrating electrons and reduces the heat-emitting and power-robbing collisions which normally occur as the electric current moves from source to the desired load. The installation is to reduce energy consumption for AHU so as to reduce the overall electricity bill contributed in campus UiTM.
