Renewable Energy Adoption For Energy Complimentary : Readiness Of Offshore Wind Turbines Application In Malaysia

The rapid industrial growth and dramatic population are the major trends in Malaysia. These trends lead to a serious issue about the extensive use of fossil fuels. The demand for energy is predicted to continuously rise because of the extensive fossil fuels exploitation. If this trend of energy cons...

description The rapid industrial growth and dramatic population are the major trends in Malaysia. These trends lead to a serious issue about the extensive use of fossil fuels. The demand for energy is predicted to continuously rise because of the extensive fossil fuels exploitation. If this trend of energy consumption is continuously uncontrolled, the fossil fuels are running ahead of supply and come to the limit. The renewable energy can provide clean sources of energy which is reliable and secure to society. This study analyzed renewable energy adoption, focusing on the readiness of offshore wind turbine technology adoption in Labuan Island, Sabah. Labuan Island, Sabah has been selected as a potential location to install the offshore wind turbine technology because of geographical advantage of the South China Sea.
