Malaysia as the wind could be harvested every day.

The small wind turbines could


charge itself during windy weather and supplies eletric to minor home appliances
such as light bulbs and fans. In India, some of the rural area does not have
eletrical supplies from the power station. However, people in the rural area
managed to harvest wind energy for home appliances. This shows that wind energy
harvesting by small wind turbines cheap. Besides that, small wind turbines will
helps to reduce the carbon footprint. In London, a well-maintained and sited 6kW
turbine generator can generate around 10000kWh per year which helps to reduce 5.2
tonnes of carbon dioxide a year.
Besides wind harvesting, Malaysia has always been a potential country in the using
and the developing in solar energy. Malaysia is situated nearby to the equatorial.
Thus, Malaysia receives sunlight for 6 hours per day on average and it generates a
annual average solar energy for Peninsular Malaysia is around 24 mega joules per
square metre . Solar harvesting is environmental friendly as it absorb heat from
the sunlight and converts the heat energy into electrical energy. Although in short
term, solar panel is expensive. However, in long term, solar panel is money saving
and environmental friendly as it recharges during sunny days and discharge when in
use. This solar energy panel supplies energy to home appliances.
