Energy efficiency through photovoltaic system in the administration building of Johor matriculation college

The extensive fossil fuel exploitation to fulfill almost all human activities for energy consumption has led to some unwanted atmospheric and environmental pollution. Photovoltaic system (PVS) or "solar electricity" converts sunlight {light energy) into electricity is produced with minimal...

Electronics Nuclear engineering The extensive fossil fuel exploitation to fulfill almost all human activities for energy consumption has led to some unwanted atmospheric and environmental pollution. Photovoltaic system (PVS) or "solar electricity" converts sunlight {light energy) into electricity is produced with minimal pollution, minimal maintenance and with the good intention to tap the most powerful renewable natural resources in the galaxy-Sun.

The qualitative method through in-depth interview with twenty two significant respondents was conducted, which took in the management of ABJMC, the technicians and also the vendors of PVS. With the concrete evidence generated from this research, the research outcomes are supporting the worthiness of the PVS adoption in ABJMC. This technology will enhance the energy efficiency, as well as saving monthly electricity bill for ABJMC.
