I read somewhere the ROI is between 9-10 years. ctys2012 liked this post

Unless yr house got a power wall to store extra electric, solar panel is a scam. In theory it will take 10 yr to pay for it self, but ask yr self this question when yr house hold use more electric day time or night time? Night time solar panel working? Morning extra electric go to where? Ludwig., SuperGampang, and 1 other liked this post

SOLAR PANELS deteriorate after a few years. Dont expect the solar panels to be as efficient as it is like on the first day after 4-5 years. The Battery also deteriorates after a few years...and they wont be able to hold the charge long. It is an expensive route to take. Dont bother. nightzstar, smon80, and 4 others liked this post

It’s only useful to power small stuffs. Battery is the worst part of it. Low efficiency in generating electricity. Hard to store. freddy manson liked this post

Installed solar panel for my house.
For warranty: Panel - 20 years Inverter - 5 + 2 years Workmanship - 3 years Cost me around RM 24K for the whole package. Using Maybank 0 interest 24 month installment. So far so good. Can even monitor power panel from apps. |

QUOTE(acbc @ Nov 9 2020, 01:07 PM) If power consumption is low and the solar is able to offset the power bill entirely the solar power is not fully utilised and selling back electricity to TNB is usually at a lower rate, it will have longer ROI.If power consumption is high, then the solar power can be fully utilise, provided the panels are facing the correct direction and scrub wash every 2-3 months for maximum generation efficiency. Without batteries, only power consumption during the day can be offset while residential power consumption are usually higher at night with the A/C switched on. Having batteries will help offset daytime generation to night time consumption, with added cost of course but it will allows better utilisation of power. nabs2205 liked this post

did consider, but risk is too high, not worth the effort. if everything according to plan, it takes 10 years to ROI. and there is no perfect guarantee it will last 10 years, and how much longer it can last after 10 years. cost of the solar panel will keep decreasing and efficiency of panels will keep increasing, in short, the later you install the faster you cover your investment. like maybe 5 years from now, it only take you 2 years to recover your investment(just blindly guess). major part of the investment is the storage, aka batteries, if you able to strike a deal with tnb, allowing you to connect your solar into tnb(reverse the meter when your solar generate more than your usage) and without batteries, it can be alot cheaper, lesser problems, and more worth it. technically still not a good investment for money, unless you have so much money and no where else to spend, better dont do it, price of electricity in malaysia isnt that high yet until you need to do that, if 1 day our electricity cost double, then your ROI will shorten, then you can reconsider. tokdukun, Supreme1394, and 1 other liked this post
