QUOTE(SurpriseZZZZZ @ Jul 21 2022, 11:53 AM) Yes, for RM 400-600 bill you need 10 kwp setup. no you don't need 10kwp setup.Which is around 45,000.00 Takes 6-7 years to recoup the investment. But, there is a big BUT, this NEM policy stays valid for 10 years only. After ten years, you can't sell it back to TNB anymore to offset your bill. The way out is installing another battery setup (20-40k) depends on cost of the battery 10 years later. I roughly did my calculation previously, for 20 years with 10 years of NEM policy (sell back to TNB) and 10 years of self consumption (Install battery after 10 years), the CAGR is around 5.5%, which can be easily achievable by putting the money in EPF plus without any headache. Meaning same amount of money put in EPF, get you same return like Solar Project. Correct me if my calculation is wrong. To maximize return you DO NOT reduce your electricity bill to zero. You only need the solar to offset the higher tariff and pay the cheap electricity tarrif. There is no point using solar to offset cheap electricity tariff. So roughly you should leave to about rm100-rm150 bill. For RM500 you should let solar offset 700-800kwh, assuming 3.5 sun hour, around 6.8kwp to 7.8kwp. At this range solar cost should be around 30-34k. This post has been edited by Drian: Jul 21 2022, 12:36 PM |

QUOTE(Zot @ Jul 21 2022, 12:07 PM) If no batteries, how to get power at night? During day, where to channel excess power if not storage. Panel output is DC anyway and output is not constant. The AC is generates using inverter from DC. From export of power to grid.If you export 1kwhr during the day you can use 1kwh for free during the night from grid. It's a form of energy credit. |
