New Quota Announced for NEM 3.0 Rakyat

Good news! On 23 May 2025, the Net Energy Metering (NEM) 3.0 Rakyat program has been extended with an additional 100MWac quota, offering more families the opportunity to enjoy long-term savings through solar energy.

This latest extension follows overwhelming demand that quickly exhausted the previous allocations — including the 50MW extension meant to last until June 2025. Now, with the new 100MWac available, you still have time to switch to solar and cut down your electricity bills.

SolaRIS RM4,000 Rebate Has Ended (But There’s Still Good News)

The popular SolaRIS program, which offered a RM4,000 cash rebate, officially ended on 30 April 2025. While this government incentive is no longer available, many solar providers are now offering their own promotions and discounts to make solar even more accessible.

Why You Shouldn’t Miss NEM 3.0

Even without the SolaRIS rebate, NEM 3.0 Rakyat is still a fantastic opportunity to take control of your electricity costs.

✅ Offset Your TNB Bill – Generate your own solar energy and send the excess back to the grid to earn credits
✅ Roll-Over Benefit – Any unused credits can be carried forward until 31 December each year
✅ Sustainable Savings – Enjoy long-term protection from rising electricity tariffs
✅ Last Opportunity? – Based on our experience, even though the official deadline for NEM 3.0 Rakyat is 30 June 2025, the quota is expected to be fully redeemed much earlier. Every previous round of quota was snapped up quickly — and with growing awareness and rising electricity costs, demand is only getting stronger.

Time Is Running Out

This 100MWac extension could be the last under the NEM 3.0 Rakyat program. If you’ve been thinking about going solar, now’s the time to act.
