Peningkatan pengeluaran gas rumah hijau adalah salah satu kebimbangan antarabangsa yang telah mendorong kerajaan Malaysia untuk mengenakan sasaran tinggi untuk pengurangan gas karbon dioksida (CO2) di Malaysia. Firma pengeluaran sebagai pengguna tenaga utama telah ditekan untuk meningkatkan kecekapan penggunaan tenaga dan mengurangkan pelepasan karbon dalam aktiviti operasi mereka. International concern on the rising emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) has prompted action from the Malaysian government to impose ambitious carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions reduction targets for Malaysia. As energy consumption contributes to a majority of carbon dioxide emissions, manufacturing firms as the primary consumer of energy are under pressure to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions in their operational activities.
