dc.description.abstractLRT System is an accessible urban public transportation in Malaysia, especially in Klang Valley. People can commute easily from one place to another. The operations of the LRT System are entirely dependent on the electric power supply, from the movement of trains between stations to the facilities inside the train itself. High consumption of electric grid has contributed to the increase in environmental pollution. In the long-term, the effect can be seen in the decrease in sea level as well as drop-in water supply. Due to that, renewable energy demand is continuously increasing, and current prediction shows that this trend is going to further continues yearly. Usage of electricity from renewable sources such as the solar panel has been proposed in this project paper in order to reduce the negative effect been encountered. The solar PV is a mechanism that can transform the sunlight into direct current electricity by using semiconductors. Hence, with the use of the solar panel, it will reduce energy pollution and climate change impact due to high consumption of electric grid. This research is meant to explore the possibility of using solar panels as an alternative for generating electricity for the Light Rail Transit (LRT) as renewable energy instead of using the power grid. The goal for this project report is to understand the requirements in implementing solar energy on the LRT System in Malaysia. � Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.en_US
