Kenanga Tower Wins ‘Energy-Efficient Retrofitted Building’ at National Energy Awards 2023 We are delighted to announce our win of the ‘Energy Efficient Building in the Retrofitted Building’ category at the esteemed National Energy Awards 2023. This prestigious recognition, conferred by the Ministry of Natural Resources, Environment, and Climate Change in collaboration with the Malaysian Green Technology and Climate Change Corporation, marks the culmination of dedicated efforts throughout the last two (2) years. Through a collaborative partnership with a Malaysian-based climatetech company, we implemented an advanced AI solution in the central air conditioning (“AC”) system, which significantly contributes to Kenanga Tower’s energy consumption. This overhaul, along with upgrades to the Air Handling Unit (“AHU”) and installation of energyefficient lighting throughout the premises, resulted in an overall energy reduction in 2022. As we reflect on the progress we have made in such a short period of time, we reaffirm our commitment to continue driving sustainable practices and positive change within our enterprise and industry. We also remain steadfast in our pursuit of excellence and are committed to fostering a greener, more sustainable future for all. FTSE4Good Bursa Malaysia (“F4GBM”) Index December 2023 Review Results
