Like other developing countries with tropical climates, electricity consumption from air conditioning systems contributes a big part to this electricity consumption. The Energy Department of the Prime Minister's Office is considering the implementation of energy label for air-conditioning system; to provide guideline for consumers to compare efficiencies of their systems, encourage manufacturers to improve the energy efficiency of their systems and ultimately, to reduce the overall energy consumption of the country. This paper proposes a suitable energy label for air conditioning system in this country based on an online survey. Data from the survey shall be analysed to come up with consumers� preferred energy label with suggestions used for its improvement. This label is also suitable for other electrical systems without major modification. � 2018 The Authors Final 2023-05-29T06:50:34Z 2023-05-29T06:50:34Z 2018 Article 10.1016/j.egyr.2018.10.003 2-s2.0-85056209860 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85056209860&doi=10.1016%2fj.egyr.2018.10.003&partnerID=40&md5=f5cbd8cc40363eab821734509661b88a https://irepository.uniten.edu.my/handle/123456789/23624 4 671 681 All Open Access, Gold, Green Elsevier Ltd Scopus
