Right now unless u are in a remote area and don’t have Tnb, u are better off with solar and NEM.

BATTERY u can consider when after 10 years. Or u have sensitive appliances that need constant power.

The cost will be about 5k for a 5kwh storage. Depending on how much u need.  Just for a reference.

I read news saying CATL going to cut battery cost in half this year. So battery storage will be much cheaper in 10 years time. Maybe can get 20kwh in 5k then

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.

Just stumbled upon this thread. Thanks for sharing the detailed information and data. Am very impressed by your projected 5 to 6 year payback. Do you have an EV car? If there's room to install more panels, then its probably an easy decision to go electric.

I have a tesla.

Previously I pay around 400 a month for petrol and 150 a month to TNB

I have installed a 7kw system for 23k with EPP of 4 years in last December and monthly installment is 480, still cheaper than my previous TNB bill and petrol combined

My TNB bill last month is RM3.

Will be free power after 4 years

Hugely impressive. Without financing, payback would have been less than 5 years. Taking financing was the smart thing to do if the financing cost was cheap.

You should compare using same time frame(for loan) and same car price(EV&ICE). Compare monthly payment of EV+Solar with ICE+Petrol+Electricity.
Currently ICE still has an upperhand in MY cos our petrol & electricity r still cheap but they r going up. More feasible for countries like Thailand & OZ where the petrol & electricity r more than double.
A friend told me a more worrying factor of EV is electro-magnetic field on occupants.
