This event on 10 of November 2023 featured notable speakers, Sofronio Silang Baual, Rotating Equipment Technical Specialist and Ashwin S Narayanan, Managing Director of IPS Malaysia.

 

The sharing session was graced by the Director of Johor State Forestry Department, Dato' Haji Salim Bin Aman, and other notable guests, including Kolej Yayasan Pelajaran Johor’s School of Engineering head, Puan Hartini Binti Saad, along with 21 students.

 

Representatives from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, the Department of Environment and relevant private sectors were also present.

An overview of The Regulatory Journey

IPS Malaysia has not only established its prominence in sustainable energy practices by taking a primary role as the rotating service provider for the innovative Net-Zero Carbon Initiative, but also signaled its readiness to support other companies with similar aspirations.

 

In his presentation, Ashwin Narayanan commented that industrial equipment was power-hungry and needed much energy to function efficiently.

 

He also discussed the Net-Zero Carbon Initiative which embodies a contemporary, global effort aimed at achieving carbon neutrality.

 

What made it important?

Central to this endeavor is the balance between carbon emissions and their subsequent removal, a dynamic that directly addresses and reduces the far-reaching impact of climate change.

 

By leveraging innovative strategies, adopting sustainable practices and building meaningful alliances, the initiative is poised to substantially decrease greenhouse gas emissions.

 

This comprehensive approach aims to guide industries and organizations towards a greener, more sustainable future, with an emphasis on collective responsibility to ensure the well-being of our planet and a better tomorrow for future generations.

 

With partners like IPS Malaysia, the initiative harnesses specialized expertise to further amplify its impact and pave the way for global sustainability.

The Challenges Ahead

In a world increasingly concerned with climate change and the urgent need for sustainable practices, industrial plants face a critical challenge to achieve net-zero emissions.

 

IPS Malaysia recognizes this crucial issue and brought together industry players for this technical discussion on the role of rotating assets in decarbonization strategies.

 

This technical sharing session offered invaluable insights toward achieving net-zero carbon emissions by optimizing rotating assets within industrial plants.

 

Key topics covered during the technical sharing session included:

      Sustainable practices in rotating equipment maintenance

      Leveraging advanced technologies for energy efficiency

      Implementing predictive maintenance strategies for optimal asset performance

      Strategies for reducing carbon emissions without sacrificing productivity.

The initiative featured engaging presentations, interactive discussions and networking opportunities that provided the attendees with a holistic understanding of the challenges and opportunities related to decarbonization in industrial settings.

 

At the event, Dato' Haji Salim mentioned that there were two basic concepts to achieving Net-Zero carbon, which was to reduce emission and increase absorption of carbon dioxide.

 

“Absorption is mainly done by natural means, by forest, trees and more, but due to limiting factors such as land space, we would definitely benefit from any and all reduction methods, hence efforts like this are very much welcomed,” he said.
