Five compelling reasons to participate in Malaysia's new solar programme
Reduce your monthly electricity costs by 30-90% depending on your consumption patterns and system size. The typical residential system saves hundreds per month, while commercial systems can save thousands. Your solar panels generate free electricity during daylight hours, directly offsetting what you'd otherwise pay.
Unlike simply wasting excess solar generation, Solar ATAP compensates you fairly for energy you export to the grid. Domestic consumers receive credits at the Energy Charge rate, while non-domestic consumers receive credits at the Average SMP - a transparent, market-based rate that reflects actual electricity value.
Solar ATAP allows you to install systems sized up to 100% of your maximum demand - larger than NEM's 75% limit. This means you can maximize your solar investment and savings potential. Non-domestic consumers can install up to 1MW, making solar viable for factories, large offices, and commercial buildings.
The programme is designed to be sustainable and fair for all electricity consumers. Non-domestic credits are based on transparent SMP rates that reflect actual electricity costs, not subsidized rates that burden other consumers. This ensures the programme can continue long-term without creating cross-subsidies.
By participating in Solar ATAP, you directly contribute to Malaysia's renewable energy goals and climate commitments. Every kilowatt-hour of solar energy you generate reduces the need for fossil fuel generation, cutting carbon emissions and air pollution. You'll be part of Malaysia's transition to cleaner energy.
Properties with solar installations typically command higher values and are more attractive to buyers and tenants. A solar system demonstrates energy independence and lower operating costs, making your property stand out in the market.
