Can easily last 10 years solar panel if good brand.

If it takes 5 years to break even, good already.

Talking about ROI, after 5 years need maintenance, replace broken panels, components etc, then kira ROI again, and break again, then ROI again.
For me, once you spent, forget about ROI, just use it and maintain it. If everything u kira ROI, memang tak nampak untung laugh.gif
ROI only if u operate a factory or some sort of mining where it generate profits for u.

Apa benda banyak merepek ni.
Been using solar since 6 years ago. Zero maintenance.
My house usage from RM400++ down to RM 20.
You can monitor the energy intake from apps.
So far it has been consistent except during rainy season.

had my home solar commissioned in Dec2023 so last month was the first full month generation and usage, summary as below:-

1) System Capacity - 7.2kWp, micro-invertor
2) Cost - RM23k, on 48 months EPP
3) Generation in Jan 2024 - 714kWh
4) Export to TNB in Jab 2024 - 525kWh
5) Own consumption of solar energy - 714 - 525 = 189kWh
6) Import from TNB - 557kWh
7) Total energy usage - 557 + 189 = 746kWh
8) TNB bill if no solar - approx RM315
9) TNB bill with solar - RM3
10) Saving - RM312/month
11) ROI - Around 6 years (23000/312*12)

For my consumption, actually a 5kwp system is sufficient. But i was quoted about 20k for that so for a little bid more, i opt for a 7kwp system. This give me flexibility to add another EV for the family in the near future.

Thx for input. Highly appreciate those who installed to share their feedback. I will start compiling them on first post.

I realised many here in /k dont know anything yet talk alot about "maintenance cost". Banyak tin kosong here.

Hi k/

I installed solar panel for my house 4 months ago. Total cost RM47000 for 26 pcs. Don't know the detail much cos not important to me. All i know is they write Jinko solar 550wp.

So far my average bill from RM800+ reduce to RM40-50. That's a whooping 20% return p.a

Isn't it too good to be true investment? What am i missing? why still not many ppl installing the solar since potential return so damn 7 good. Even EPF give guaranteed 5% only. FD is even lower.

Unless this is a multigenerational/multi family home, you having 800 bucks in electricity bills is what's missing

Mine is just additional db box for solar. Next to the main db. Tnb meter is outside. Inverter is hidden behind panel. So u just imagine another db next to your existing db jer.

Mei 2023 = 1652kWh usage Rm800+++
Nov 2023 = 1240kWh usage Rm40+++ (solar)

Not fair comparison

Should be Rm600+++ vs Rm40+++

TS asked why not Malaysian installed Home solar

Then TS mentioned the cost to install is around RM47,000.

"TS is absolutely a best example of a person that really out of touch"

Dia ingat majority Malaysian can simply spend that money for this thing. Nanti cakap bodoh marah
