Urban households in Malaysia: Characteristics of electrical energy use and attitudes

Energy consumption in Malaysia has increased considerably as the economy and culture have developed, with an increase of roughly 154 percent in fourteen years and a significant increase from 2019 to 2021. The majority of relevant research focuses on building textiles and household appliances, with l...

Civil engineering (General) Energy consumption in Malaysia has increased considerably as the economy and culture have developed, with an increase of roughly 154 percent in fourteen years and a significant increase from 2019 to 2021. The majority of relevant research focuses on building textiles and household appliances, with little attention paid to inhabitants' energy use attitudes toward energy conservation. As a result, the goal of this research is to look into domestic energy use in Malaysia through a survey that focuses on the characteristics of energy use in urban households, demographics and building information, occupant behavior in cooling occupancy patterns, attitudes toward smart meters, and energy-saving policies. According to the findings of the survey, the ultimate energy consumption in Malaysia is influenced by family annual income. According to this study, high electrical energy users are more likely to have a higher family annual income and use their heating and cooling systems for longer periods of time. Furthermore, it was shown that smart meter acceptability in Malaysia is low because the majority of respondents are unaware of the possibilities of smart meters, implying that an awareness campaign is required if the government wishes to implement the use of smart meters. 2023 Conference or Workshop Item PeerReviewed Wong, Wilson and Mohd.
