What is SAVE Programme
SAVE or Sustainability Achieved via Energy Efficiency, is a program spearheaded by the Ministry of Energy, Green Technology and Water (KeTTHA), to improve energy efficiency in Malaysia through several initiatives.
I posted an article two years ago here pertaining to the SAVE Programme and it's benefit. SOGO, a departmental store in Kuala Lumpur saved about RM80,000 monthly in energy bill by replacing the chillers with energy-efficient type.
What is SAVE objectives
Programme appraisal
Energy, Green Technology and Water ministry said that the programme has succeeded in achieving energy-saving targets. The ministry listed the followings as its achievement:-
17 brands of air-conditioner and 16 brands of five-star refrigerator have entered the market after the programme was launched, compared to only 6 brands previously.
TheGreenMechanics: In this perspective, the Programme clearly achieve its objectives. Cool!
Are you one of the lucky buyers of the qualifying energy-efficient air-conditioners or refrigerators, and enjoyed RM200 rebates?

- To accelerate the transformation of consumer electrical appliances market and increase the share of Energy Efficient models in the market.
- As one of the initiatives to mitigate GHG emissions reduction.
Programme appraisal
Energy, Green Technology and Water ministry said that the programme has succeeded in achieving energy-saving targets. The ministry listed the followings as its achievement:-
- Cutting RM64.1 million of the overall cost for three electrical equipment – refrigerator , air conditioner and chiller.
- Since its commencement in 2011, efforts to encourage the use of the five-star rating energy-efficient equipment, had also saved 246.4 GigaWatt hours (GWh) of electricity.
