Frequently Asked Questions

Solar ATAP (Solar Accelerated Transition Action Programme) is Malaysia’s new rooftop solar scheme introduced in 2025.

Unlike the old one-to-one credit system under NEM, Solar ATAP uses the System Marginal Price (SMP), a wholesale electricity rate updated every 30 minutes, to calculate bill offsets. This makes savings more dynamic and better aligned with real electricity market prices.
The government announced that applications for Solar ATAP will open on December 1, 2025, with full guidelines published on the Energy Commission and SEDA websites.

The programme is open to residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural users, making it more inclusive than previous NEM schemes. To maximize your chances of approval and lock in the best supplier packages, it’s recommended to prepare early and engage with a trusted solar provider.
SelCo, short for Self-Consumption, is a solar setup where you generate and use your own electricity directly — without sending extra power back to TNB.
Not always.

If you or your household are at home most of the day — running appliances, air-conditioning, or other devices between 9 am–6 pm — then a battery isn’t essential. Your solar power will be used directly as it’s generated, giving you great savings without the extra cost of battery storage.

A battery becomes more useful if:

- Most of your electricity usage happens at night
- You want backup power during blackouts
- You own an EV and prefer to charge after sunset
As of today, a typical residential solar system can cost anywhere from RM14,000 to RM46,000. The price varies depending on factors like the type of electricity supply, roof size, and most importantly, how much electricity you want to generate—and ultimately, how much you wish to save on your electricity bill.
You submit your solar form through us, we connect you with our trusted partners, and once your system is fully set up, we’ll process your rebate and transfer it to you within 3 working days.

There are more than 20 solar providers in Malaysia, and their offerings can vary. We suggest considering their reputation, reviews, experience, and the warranties provided for hardware like solar panels and inverters, as these significantly impact the performance of your solar system.

Generally, the performance warranty for solar panels should be at least 30 years, and for inverters, at least 10 years.

However, SolarGuide is here to help you pick the best solar provider based on your needs. Get a free proposal now!

Under the NEM Rakyat Programme, Domestic Consumer(s) who has a solar PV installation on the roof-top of their premises will consume the energy produced first, and any excess will be exported to the TNB grid. The credit to be received for such excess energy will be used to offset part of the electricity bill on a “one-on-one” offset basis for a period of ten (10) years of operation.

Under this program, any excess energy generated will be exported to the utility grid and will be paid on a “one-on-one” offset basis. The priority is for self-consumption, however most of domestic consumers may not be at home during the weekdays and may have excess energy exported to the grid. The credit shall be allowed to roll over for a maximum of 12 months.
You can install solar panels on all types of landed properties, such as terrace houses, semi-detached homes, bungalows, shoplots, or factories, as long as you 'own' the roof.
Unfortunately, the answer is no. The roof is considered part of the building's common property, so it's not owned by you personally.
Solar For Rakyat Incentive Scheme, SolaRIS is an incentive programme launched by the Government aimed at attracting new installations of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in residential premises. This programme supports the government’s goal of increasing renewable energy capacity in the electricity supply system to 70% by the year 2050 and reducing carbon emissions.

A cash rebate of up to RM4,000 will be given to residential customers who submit Net Energy Metering (NEM) application to Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA) Malaysia from 1 April 2024 onwards and successfully commission their solar PV system installations with TNB.
The rebate allocation is on a first-come, first-served basis from until 30 June 2025, or until all SolaRIS rebate quotas are fully distributed, whichever comes first.

Most solar providers will assist with the registration on your behalf.
