Malaysia enacted the Renewable Energy Act in April 2011. One of its important components is the feed-in tariff (FiT) scheme, launched in December 2011. The scheme is managed and administered by the Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA) of M... Read More about Progress of feed-in tariff in Malaysia: a year after.

Rotationally asymmetric optical concentrators for solar PV and BIPV systems (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ramirez-Iniguez, R., Muhammad-Sukki, F., Abu-Bakar, S. R., McMeekin, S. G., Stewart, B. G., Sarmah, N., Mallick, T. K., Munir, A. B., Mohd Yasin, S. R., & Abdul Rahim, R. (2013, October). Rotationally asymmetric optical concentrators for solar PV and BIPV systems. Presented at 2013 IEEE 4th International Conference on Photonics (ICP), Melaka, Malaysia

Building Integrated Concentrated Photovoltaic (BICPV) systems are one of the options to reduce the dependency on fossil fuels and minimise energy consumption in buildings. These systems not only contribute to the generation of electricity, but also t... Read More about Rotationally asymmetric optical concentrators for solar PV and BIPV systems.

Nonlinear control of a DC motor (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
