The newly opened OZO Georgetown not only offers great accommodation at bargain rates, they are also mindful to play their role in safeguarding the environment.
They are among the handful of hotels in Penang to have installed the “Solar PV System” designed to harvest green energy.
This solar PV system is a building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) system which displaces building materials and generates solar power.
In this manner, the solar panels act as a building envelope material.
The solar PV system is capable of generating 51.84 megawatt per hour or MWh of electricity annually.
