your inverter should have a built-in meter.

on the tnb side, you have to use their own meter

In summary, I don;t believe in FIT. I believe in off grid system solely for maintaining basic electricity for simple stuff like lighting during nite, radio + internet communication. the main problem is the fridge (for food presevation) which consume the most power.

Me too. But i want to know how much the panels actually generated instead just calculation.

I've just setup an off grid floodlight for back lane.. planning to expand to other lighting in my home

Since you mentioned bout off grid system for your house, most small capacity off grid inverter/charger do not come with meter.
Mr fireball is using on-grid inverter and he refer on-grid inverter for build-in energy meter.

yeah... i realized after i google the inverters he's using.

so, is there any meter for measuring off grid systems?

anyone here doing off grid systems or all of you here on grid?

The electric generation bill will sent by postage. The ordinary consumption meter and renewable energy meter are taken reading by different reader.
Once the reading taken, the tnb renewable energy will verify the reading. Once verified, the electric generation bill post to you. Then pass to account dept to credit payment into your account. When payment is made, you will receive your favorite email. May2u credit email notification!

After a day or two, your bank account will be higher figure.

can show the generation bill? never seen one before

It is a Maybank2u credit notification email. Later, TNB finance dept will post a credit notice to you. By the time you received the TNB finance dept credit notice, you already finished spending the money.

Oh... Thanks

So money comes in before notices. Is it regular payment ?

Off topic. I noticed KLIA is installing solar panels on roof. Is it confirmed?
