**7. Conclusion**

Malaysia is a developing country and being able to harness RE would be a great attribute to improve the country. The existing RE in Malaysia includes Solar energy, Hydropower energy, and Biomass energy. Other potential REs in Malaysia could be harvested such as Tidal energy. Solar cells are commonly used to harness solar energy. The technology can be further investigated and improved to increase the efficiency of electricity generation. Hydropower in Malaysia is generating 11% of the country's electricity as Malaysia has many rivers and water bodies that could be exploited. A balanced method of implementing hydropower can be done to always ensure the ecosystem of Malaysia is not disturbed. Malaysia is still relatively new in using Biomass energy. However, the gradual increase of power generation using biofuels has increased the potential of biomass energy in Malaysia as a renewable energy source. Tidal energy has the potential to be harnessed in Malaysia as there are locations such as Selangor and Johor having tides that could generate a decent amount of electricity. Geothermal energy also has the potential in Malaysia as there are multiple hot springs. Sabah has the potential to harness geothermal energy as it originates within young volcanic area. However, more research and investment would be needed to harness geothermal energy in Malaysia. It is quite convincing that Malaysia could harness more RE as the sustainability of energy consumption is crucial in this era.
