This report documents energy and economic analyses in support of Malaysian efforts to develop an energy standard for buildings. The Malaysian research discussed in this report has been developed exclusively for new commercial buildings. Research on this project has been carried out by a team of Energy Consultants from Malaysia and from Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory in close consultation with the Malaysian Government. Since September 1986, the team has conducted numerous computer simulations and analyses of energy consumption in typical buildings based on Malaysian weather, building construction, and cost data. The energy conservation policies evaluated in this research include criteria for: lighting power and controls; air conditioning (A/C) equipment; building envelope thermal performance; and, credits for the use of daylighting. 16 refs., 18 figs., 10 tabs.
