Malaysian City to Make LED Lighting Mandatory for New Buildings

A Malaysian city, Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ), new building standards will make LED lighting mandatory in new commercial buildings or mixed developments to meet the city’s goal of becoming a green sustainable city by 2030, according to a report by The Star.

MBPJ’s new building guidelines will require commercial and mixed developments to have rainwater harvesting system, green building index (GBI) compliance, use LED lamps, eco-friendly development manual (Masma) specs and include a landscape area of 10 percent to 15 percent of total development area.

Aside from making LED lamps standard in new buildings, the company has also spent RM100,000 (US$ 30,501) to install LED streetlights in residential areas with back lanes.aPetaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ)
