In particular, we want to emphasize that energy conservation efforts are one of the best ways in suppressing energy demand growth rates, energy conservation programs including energy management, implementation of Minimum Energy Performance Standards (SKEM) and the use of energy efficient household appliances, for example, is the implementation of LED lights, both outdoor lights for road lighting (APJ) and indoor lights for commercial and household sectors., "explained Sahid.

Sahid said that after completing the installation of LED-tech grants, efficient energy from the ADLIGHT project in the residential and building sectors, the next project will be the tourism sector.

"We hope that the pilot lighting for this tourist village can then be an inspiration for other tourist villages to continue to improve themselves, to increase added value, especially aesthetics in lighting in order to attract the enthusiasm of both domestic and foreign tourists, as well as encourage saving energy consumption and saving electricity bills which in the end economically can contribute to improving the development of other supporting infrastructure in the tourist village," concluded Sahid.

Through the ADLIGHT project as a continuation of energy conservation measures, the development of the tourism sector as well as the empowerment of the Bumdes tourism village manager, at this event, an MoU was also signed between Bumdes and domestic LED light producers who had collaborated on the ADLIGHT project roadmap.

It is high hope that the establishment of cooperation between the two parties can be an extension for tourist villages as well as people who want to get access to an efficient, energy efficient, and LED technology made by the nation's children. The LED was allocated for lighting for several tourist villages, among others, Kebun Ayu Tourism Village, Batu Kumbung Tourism Village, Dasan Geria Tourism Village, Kuripan Induk Tourism Village, Sedau Tourism Village, East Mareje Tourism Village, Mekarsari Tourism Village, and Sepage Tourism Village.
