Ir. Ts. Dr Yahaya, Managing Director of HTS Engineering, believes that as the world grapples with climate change, healthcare facilities must embrace sustainability as a core principle. Malaysian hospitals are aligning their operations with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to ensure environmental responsibility.
Energy Efficiency: Facilities are incorporating LED lighting, innovative HVAC systems, and renewable energy sources to minimise energy consumption. Building designs focus on reducing carbon footprints through innovative technologies.
Carbon Reduction Goals: Tracking and mitigating Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions is a priority. Hospitals are adopting greener practices to meet national and global sustainability targets.
Waste Management: Digital tools monitor water usage, reduce waste, and minimise harmful chemical applications. These measures ensure that hospitals operate responsibly while maintaining high care standards.
