This project is a continuation of the centre for education and training in renewable energy and energy efficiency (CETREE) project that was implemented by the Malaysian Government in collaboration with DANIDA under the Malaysia-Danish environmental cooperation programme that began in 2000. The purpose of the project is to increase the level of knowledge and awareness on the role and use of energy efficiency in education. Through this project the concept of renewable energy and energy efficiency could be absorbed into curricular activities in schools and universities.

From 22 to 24 august 2006, CETREE worked with the Ministry of Education Malaysia to organise 3 competitions related to renewable energy and energy efficiency, namely solar car, cooking with solar cookers and renewable energy & energy efficiency beach house. Indoor games were also organised, along with an inaugural exhibition by CETREE. CETREE's main exhibition that featured an energy van in a mobile exhibition was also displayed.

CETREE also ran energy efficiency campaigns in the local newspapers. the campaign was held from 15 December to 19 December 2006. It featured information on choosing energy efficiency equipment such as refrigerators, air conditioners, irons, electric kettles and lights.

Students from schools and public institutes of higher learning from throughout the country went on learning tours to CETREE. To date, 8,260 students and 1,714 teachers and lecturers have visited CETREE, along with 14,109 member of the public. CETREE now hosts an interactive website to disseminate information on energy efficiency and renewable energy.
