Actually i still tak faham what's the other way of calculation that give us more advantage? I remember there was a tered that said TNB screwed us over with the way they calculate that tip the scale on their favor.

RM 4000 for Sinopoly 48V 200aH (Shouldn't buy from shady supplier, my great mistake)
RM 12000 for upcoming EVE and Batterotech 280Ah
RM 8000 for 4200watts solar panels, technically the total is 5340watts solar panel after I added 4 more panels, but I only able to reach average 4200-4800 watts for most of time at noon (Work very well)
RM 3600 for Growatt SPF 6000 ES PLUS (Off grid model) (Perfection in every way?)

Burned RM3000 for Growatt MIN 4200 TL-X (Grid tie model) (Work great with zero export, not suitable for my usage unless if I can get into net metering)

Not sure about the other misc stuff such as torque wrench, nut, bolts, railing, breakers,wiring, BMS (JK-BMS), active balancer etc. Around RM3000?

SEB and SEDA = don't even waste your time. I tried, and they really not interested to do net metering at all. Requirement = NEM contractor. Minta list kontraktor, "pergi cari sendiri, sini takde list contractor NEM"  dry.gif

What's the model? Bought long time ago? Price seems high, almost rm1.5/w.

Half-cut solar panels 445W monocrystaline x 12 pieces bought back in year 2020.

Ever try to order solar panels to sarawak (the wooden packaging crate and foam etc) and paying all those custom duty?  sweat.gif 
Tell me if the price is worth it or not.

If you order a full pallet share out the balance with others much cheaper now! 2020 this price maybe yes.

aha, so we're not bound by the max 10kWp stated by government? LOL. Would it be illegal to install more?

Maybe I know where you get this info? Only knows Seda's limit single phase to 5kWac & 3 phase to 12kWac.

Can you share the price with us?

Not much sense to go for microinverters imo, harder to repair and probably harder to troubleshoot since they are located on your roofs.

You can request to have it installed on the balcony ceiling if your house have one brows.gif

EMIT SOLAR also using inverters with AFCI built-in based on the following datasheet.

While, this is their panel.

As a buyer you can choose provider that offer the latest panels/inverters. So many RPVSP out there for you to choose from.

i thinking should i go for solar,
currently usage rm150 to 180.

with control aircon usage, the weather is getting more and more terrible, so thinking need to on aircon more.

With the Solaris rebate just do a 4kWac installation at least can enjoy full blast during heatwave.

As long as the hybrid inverter have IEC61727 certification you can used it with NEM & battery.

Can install. But what is the benefit? You don’t want to draw so much from tnb grid to make sure you’re below monthly 1,500kW threshold? There’s a 10 cents surcharge per kWh if you exceed 1,500kW drawn from the grid. It applies even if you’re on NEM.

But even assuming the surcharge applies, 1501kW * RM0.10 = RM150.10. Per annum it’s RM1801.20. Current battery system costs way more than that.

There’s no clear ROI? Unless you’re consuming way more — but that also means you need a large battery and a huge solar system.

Huawei’s inverter is battery ready. Hopefully 10 years later the NEM gets renewed or the battery costs comes down. Yes yes Huawei supports proprietary batteries only and it’s HV battery. But you can still do AC coupled battery with inverter with the Huawei system. Same same.

Huawei have both on grid and hybrid inverter. So please get your facts right, later somebody installed Huawei cannot add battery will surely blame you. brows.gif

Social responsibility & you get this "Malaysia Renewable Energy Certificate (mREC) recorded in the form of an e-certificate" For some company it's a requirement if you want to do business with them.

Dear all solar sifu here, need your advice.

My house has single-phase power with an average TNB bill of RM300+ per month. Currently, I have received 3 solar system proposals as summarised below:

1. JA panel 590Wp (N-type panel) + Solis 1P5k inverter - system size 6.49kWp (11 panels) - RM 20k

2. Longi panel 580Wp (P-type panel) + Solis 1P5k inverter - system size 6.38kWp (11 panels) - RM21k 

3. Trina panel 600w (N-type panel) + Hoymiles microinverter x 4 - system size 7.2kWp (12 panels) - RM22.5k

Is the system setup good for a single phase? Are there any other factors to consider before deciding which one to go? The TNB contract mentioned for a single phase the solar output should not exceed 5kW so the extra kW installed will be a waste?
*
Seems options 3 is the best of the 3 but asked them to give the 4 units Hoymiles model no first.

Something does not seems right, 4x2000W=8kW inverter power, it's over the SEDA 5kWac limit for single phase, can approved? I requested for 6kW also my RPVSP won't submit for me vmad.gif

If 3 is slightly expensive! Too bad their IEC 61727 certificate for SEDA not ready yet.

the panel actually not that expensive.
it already drop 90% for past decade.

the cost is installation, Inverter, panel bracket and etc
which i see hard to go down, it will go up only.

Yes, labour charges will only go up, wait until no more fuel subsidy mampus already. Didn't realize ralings, brackets, clips etc cost almost rm850 for only 10x 580W if purchased locally.

Hi All,

This is the survey I did during the previous HOMEDEC Expo @ KL Convention Centre

1. PlusMax Engineering - 8.26kWp - RM26,000
PV Panel - Jinko Solar JKM590N-72HL 14 pcs
Inverter - Solid-1P7K-5G

2. Pathgreen - 8.47 kWp - RM27,000
PV Panel - Trina Solar 605 Watt 14pcs
MicroInverter - Hoymiles

3. Verdant Solar - 8.26 kWp - RM26,412
PV Panel - 590W JA Solar / Trina / Jinko 14 pcs
Inverter - Solis S5-GR3P8K-S

4. Alpha Solar - 7.9 kWp - RM22,470
PV Panel: Longi LRT-72HGD 605M 13pcs
Inverter: SAJ-Sofar-INVT

5. ERS Energy - 8kWp - RM25,800
PV Panel - Trina 575K
Inverter - Huawei

6. Solartech - 8.8 kWp - RM28,800
PV Panel - Solar space 550W 16 pcs
Inverter - Solis S5-GR3P8K

6. SOLS Energy
- Contacted by the sales consultant after a week of enquiries. He set up a hybrid meeting on the next day, end up he did not show up in the meeting. Very bad and slow services. Will not follow up or deal with them.


Shorlisted 1. PlusMax Engineering, 2. Pathgreen & 3.Verdant Solar. Still don't know which to go for
*
Since your house is 3 phase why choose no1? Verdant would be a better choice because 8kW 3 phase inverter vs single phase 7kW from PlusMax. Pathgreen only if your roof have shading issues.
QUOTE(Jason @ May 6 2024, 03:23 PM)
In layman terms, what is the implication of this certificate for consumers like us? And we talking about Pathgreen?
*
Hoymiles already have IEC61727. In fact all micro inverters have this feature but SEDA required the actual test report & certification. No implication to end user. "What is the IEC 61727 standard?
This International Standard applies to utility-interconnected photovoltaic (PV) power systems operating in parallel with the utility and utilizing static (solid-state) non-islanding inverters for the conversion of DC to AC."
This is to make sure when TNB blackout your inverter would not feed to grid to prevent from harming TNB workers.
