Despite the mounting costs of climate change and inevitably declining oil, natural gas and uranium reserves, the vast majority of cities and urban communities is planned and managed as if such existential crises did not exist. Hence the transition from fossil fuel dominated cities to an urban future marked by a radically new, renewable energy infrastructure requires entirely new tools and frames of decision-making.
BIO BIG VALLEY LOJING - GREEN CITY
Bio Big Valley Lojing, a mega development in Gua Musang, is gearing towards its second phase, which would involve a development cost of about of RM 10 Billion. This phase, due to be completed by 2013, will be undertaken jointly by a local consortium comprising SOLARin Holdings (M) Sdn. Bhd., MOFAZ Group of Companies and Telemont Sdn. Bhd.
The increase in global warming awareness among the world population has pushed the renewable energy industry to another plateau. The race for a conducive and sustainable environment will be the future direction the energy industry is heading for. In the next decade it is anticipated that 50% of the energy usage will come from the renewable sector. Sustainable energy will be applied in areas for motoring, domestic use and even commercial and industry. The idea is to have an almost total renewable energy application within a city.
Lojing is located in the southern most region of kelantan and has been identified as the most suitable due to its high level and the low temperature spring all year round. The environment is conducive to stage any internationally recognized project and will be the one and only concept city in malaysia. This concept will be part of the effort to green the earth and also adhere to the global warming concern.
