so? not sure if blackout has to do with hz in day time?  tongue.gif

base on current installation, solar generated will get use first and balance only send to TNB..
so if day time blackout, you still get power unless there is some mechanism stop the solar if no electric from TNB...
*
no... grid tie for export inverter must sense grid got power only then it on... if blackout it off...

I always suspect all providers jack up the price when there was solaris rebate.. Now no more solaris rebate, kononnya so called they fund the rebate but in fact....

Let's see if TNB extend the new solaris rebate if the providers will maintain current price
*
prices drop a lot liao because of trade war with usa...

solaris was to promote adoption... tnb jack up electricity rate will also do it... biggrin.gif

Any potential issue of using zero export function  ? I am still waiting for TNB to change to bidirectional meter. The installer turn on the system but with zero export function

no issue... who's the installer and what system?

There is a disclaimer saying calculation not endorsed by TNB.
Better wait for real bill and see how.

But deep inside me I feel this is the correct one...

Didn't the solar company explain to u about the effect of these changes?

i think everyone expected the tariffs to go way up n solar ppl happy... but is opposite from the examples more or less no change or reduce in most cases...

No that is not it, tariff can stay the same or reduce and i am more than happy if that is the case, it is just a new way of calculation (potentially) causing consumer under NEM 3.0 to pay more than previous tariff
*
yeah i know... previously network n capacity are lumped into the tariffs... now its separated out...

tnb dun have to buy from home solar ppl you know... gov force them last time...

nem offsets energy units not price... but price was the mechanism use to justify installation...

also seda calc never tries to max out kwp for zero bil... is we all pandai pandai future planning... smile.gif

anyways... lets wait n see...

Come on. Try to debate this.

Tnb is charging because they argue they spent money on the network and power generation. Solar users do too. So how do you justify only one side paying?

That is a simple question. Not overly complex.
*
because meter is at your house... wink.gif

everything before the meter, including the meter itself belongs to tnb...

when you import say 700 kwh... it uses their power network... when you export say 700 kwh... it also uses their power network... but tnb only charges you once for import for using their network... which is correct... but you want tnb to pay you for using their own network when you export... which is the old tariff method... which is incorrect in the world of custody metering and network access...

if your house is 100km in the jungle and tnb wants to buy solar power from you but dont want to run cable to your house... NOW you can charge them generation AND network cost... wink.gif

Yes. Actually with solar there will be significant saving under new tariff. Just that the amount that solar users need to pay increased way over the assured hike from the govt.  From 0 to rm 100. From 70 become 300.

yup... and at least last years folks got 4k from the gov...

I am not arguing about tnb's infra. Lol tnb can use their own infra for free when buying. But what about mine?

When you buy power from TNB, you pay for their energy, their network including power generation and capacity.

So when TNB buys power from you, why do they only pay for energy? Anything past the meter is part of your costs. Exact same justification that tnb is using.

Why can they sell energy and charge for their infra costs, but buy only energy without paying for infra costs?

because of where the metering point is... ive explained it already...

What change? The claim of only offsetting energy charge is clearly false but people continue to debate it as if it is real.

Now just waiting to see if there is any change to the export tariff.
*
when generate n use immediately... yes nem will offset everything 1-5...

when exported is where the issue comes and being debated everywhere from lack of clarity...

imho... tnb not stupid... i think they know fully well the consequence... hence the lack of clarity is on purpose...

If generate and use immediately it won’t even be in your bill for non export / self consumption…. Offset what leh?

yes not in the bill... because offset liao mah...

offset 1... self consumption

offset 2... import - export

I charge my EV at day time, so i only export around 390kwh monthly and import around 300kwh per month. it looks like my bill will even get cheaper after July because of the energy efficiency incentive.

I think for those having big export, if you can setup EV charger at your house and sell it at 60 cents per kwh, you can make more money smile.gif

solar still ok bah...

offset to avoid the next 1500 kwh tier...

still give good savings/roi... just not as good as before...

Hi i want to know if this is normal. Got a 8kWh solar solution with 14 panels (575W).

SEDA cert shows Declared Installed Capacity (kWac) = 6.000
Installed Capacity (kWp) = 8.050

Apps is showing capacity of 8.05kWp but the max generation i can get so far is only 6.53kW after monitoring for whole month of June 2025.

So current power is at most 80% of the capacity. Is this good?
*
mppt efficiency ranges 93-97%... dc to ac inverter efficiency ranges 85-90%...

so... 8kwp x 0.97 x 0.9 = 6.98kw... this would the theoretical peak, actual will be lower... yours is within 10% so quite reasonable imho...
