Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: The energy transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy is an urgent global priority, particularly for densely populated urban areas such as Kampung Baru in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. As a Malay heritage area facing the pressures of modernisation and the need to improve energy efficiency, Kampung Baru requires an innovative training approach to empower the community to adopt clean energy technologies. This article discusses the innovation of a web-based virtual smart microgrid simulator as a training solution for the energy transition in the Kampung Baru community. The methodology employed is a literature review, analysing various studies on the development of virtual microgrid training platforms, the needs of traditional urban communities, and the effectiveness of web-based simulations in enhancing the technical capacity of the community. The findings indicate that web-based virtual simulators offer high accessibility, low cost and an interactive learning experience that overcomes the limitations of conventional training. This platform enables the community to learn about microgrid operation, energy management, and responses to various scenarios without the need for costly physical infrastructure. The novelty of this article lies in the integration of a virtual simulation approach with the specific context of Kampung Baru as an urban cultural heritage area. In conclusion, the development of a web-based virtual smart microgrid simulator has the potential to become an inclusive model for energy transition training.
