Hi All,

Recently I'm doing research for Solar Panel, due to surge in TNB bills. Search around the internet and not many reviews on solar panels.

What comes to my mind is:-

a) ROI 5~7 years from investment value (Says save RM300/months divided by total investment value of RM20,000). However, there is an installment plan with 0% up to 60 months. Meaning you pay for Solar Panel instead of TNB.

b) Any maintenance issues? (E.g bird nest under the solar panel, bird shit on the panel and etc)

c) Used for 10 years and decided to shift/move to a new house. How about the solar panel? Going to pay labor costs to move to a new house?

d) Warranty issues?

e) Maintenance cost?

f) String vs micro-inverter (Majority is offering micro inverter)

There is plenty of company Pathgreen, AlphaSolar, VerdantSolar, BuySolar, Sols Energy, RES, Solaroo and plenty more. Some companies come with phone apps to monitor the solar panel as well. Every company also saying their solar panel is the best  confused.gif

Do you mind sharing what is your experience with the company and solar panel pros and cons?

Thank you.  laugh.gif

How much is last 3 months TNB charges? Single or 3 Phase?

Doing my research that TNB per month RM300 electricity, most likely solar specialist will propose to use 8 panels of solar that 4.5 KWP that approximately RM260~280 offset from TNB.

Thinking about the future, TNB charges may increase anytime soon. To prevent that we may need to think ahead

NEM rakyat still have quota, don't jump the gun too early since your bill only rm300. Price is on downward trend but not reflected by those vendors. And supposely regualations will be loosened on the 15th july but as usual no solid info! ranting.gif
Conditions for NEM, SelCo programmes relaxed

Do you mean the selling price of Solar panels is getting a downtrend due to more and more demand? However, is Solar Panel pricing under government control?
*
Solar down trend
No control over solar pricing.

My house has frequent power disruption especially during 11pm - 1am.
Complaint to TNB and their normal answer is rosak di pencawang sana.
Was wondering if the storage of the electricity using solar panel can be used as backup supply during power disruption?

You need get a hybrid inverter (zero export) aka known as limiter function with battery backup. Otherwised you might goto jail for electrocuting TNB workers brows.gif

It's under NEM Nova. Researching into DC to DC EV charging now because one condo management approaches me to quote for Solar carport so I told them might as well go off-grid and used the generated power with battery storage to do EV charging which some residents requested for.
