Developers advised to embrace RE
The government is urging stakeholders to consider using power and focusing on biodiversity, in housing development projects according to Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.
Minister Fadillah highlighted the importance of boosting the utilization of energy (RE) pointing out that its uptake still needs to improve despite efforts made in recent times.
"He mentioned that as of 2023 the use of energy sources like hydro and bioenergy only made up 4% which is way lower than the 23% goal, for 2050 set by the National Energy Transition Roadmap."
Recently Fadillah gave a speech during the 2024 dinner hosted by the Real Estate and Housing Developers’ Association.
He encouraged developers to improve sustainability by implementing Industrial Building Systems and utilizing eco construction materials.
Bernama reported that Fadillah highlighted the importance of safeguarding the rights of buyers when discussing abandoned housing projects.
