7.26kWp Solar System

N-Type 600W Half-cut Monocrystalline
PV Modules Trina Solar brand (Tier 1
Solar PV panel; China); or equivalent

Huawei Inverter (China) -SUN2000
5KTL

Seems this Huawei can used battery, did you asked them for the price of the battery?

nope and no planning for battery near future.

except planning for blackout time.

cause is not worth to have it yet.

Waiting till price drops by 50%, then I will install. There is already a glut in solar panels.

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.

In layman terms, what is the implication of this certificate for consumers like us? And we talking about Pathgreen?

SHAH ALAM (May 6): The Ministry of Energy Transition and Water Transformation (Petra) has come up with the affordable “Solar BOLEH!” programme to enable more people to adopt solar energy by installing solar panels in their homes, said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.

Fadillah, who is also energy transition and water transformation minister, said Petra is collaborating with the AEON Group, Bank Simpanan Nasional and SOLS Energy to implement the programme.

He said the programme, under the People’s Solar Transition Initiative (Solar@Petra Initiative), aims to encourage more people to benefit from the national energy transition agenda and that it is specifically designed to expand domestic users’ access to solar installation schemes and available financing facilities in the market.

Fadillah said that through this public-private collaboration, solar installation subscriptions can be easily made at AEON branches across the country, with special benefits offered to AEON cardholders, such as earning double reward points.

“In the past, residential solar installations were typically done by those who could afford it because the cost was relatively high, but with the ‘Solar BOLEH!’ programme, we believe more people will respond to the call to support the energy transition agenda.

google but seems no details info. recommended?

with lfp battery getting more denser thanks to ev, after 10 years we could probably power up a 1hp aircond with just few units of battery for 8 hours

no news.... typical Malaysia announcement without content.

U check the keyword, aeon, Bsn. Most likely solar financing. Surely got interest

- 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.
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.

Agree with what adamw said. Verdant & PlusMax pricing so close, of course choose the 3 phase inverter over the single phase one. If you can confirm which inverter you are getting for ERS (assuming it is 3 phase 7kW or 8kW) you can compare the warranties between 5. and 3. and choose the one with better warranty coverage.

i've compiled all the package shared here including the one i had (before 4k Solaris rebate) for reference


*updated 03-06-24

i made comparison between few inverters too

let say 12 panel
6 at front and 6 at back.

when morning, front get Sun
when evening, back get Sun

if all string together, this will become shading issue right?

how to solve this?

Usually for string , they have two main mppt. Which string one group together while another group with another mppt.

Like this it won’t be shading problem so much. But if one panel of thst string play up for any reason you might still get lower yield.

Mana ada shading. No trees no high rise. Btw your pricing incorrect. First 2 is ERS WITH Solaris rebate RM4k. So you need to add the RM4k back in to make an apples to apples comparison.

Personally I would forget SAJ, INVT inverters. You want a good inverter to begin with.

That’s not shading. Basically if something shades your solar panel.. like a tree providing shade. Yours is optimizing the panels… easily solved lah.. most string inverter these days have 2 MPTT. So just use both.
