Solar energy for greener Penang


The solar panels now generate electricity to power the MOCC, reducing its annual carbon emission by 40%.

THE site offices of the Penang South Island (PSI) reclamation project will strive to use renewable resources to meet daily operational needs, starting with the Marine Operation Control Centre (MOCC) in Batu Maung.

SRS Consortium deputy project director Azmi Mohamad said the MOCC, which monitored vessel movements around the PSI site during reclamation, was powered by solar energy.
