Do you know the NEM only valid for 10 years? Your "return" has an expiry date. Year 1-5 trying to recover, then Year 6-10 you earn some. Year 11 onwards, you are on your own.
*
After 10 years depend if TNB want to renew the contract or not otherwise users just rugi the storage part. You do still enjoyed the generated power during the day ya and is FREE yo....

When you put returns like that it will be compared with other investment class. eg:- 5.5% epf , 3% FD, 6% ASNB but you cannot really compare them that way,
If you put 47k in FD, 3%  for 5 years you get 47k + (3%^5*47k).
The 47K that you put in is unchanged after 5 years

If you put in 47K in Solar and you claim 20% return.
By right at the end of 5 years you get 47K +(20%^5*47k) but you don't get it.
You can't sell the solar panels and your solar panels are not worth 47k anymore. . That is asset depreciation.

So technically, if you include asset depreciation. The first 5-6 years is 0% and then only after that is 20%.
You don't understand that you cannot get back the capital that you put in.
*
If I can get 800 monthly or 9,600 yearly against my investment of 38,000 already yields 25%, apa lagi awak mau? biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

After 4 years already ROI 38k . . .. another 4 years another ROI 38k, tell me what FD/EPF can give me the same?
Bear in mind this could last 25 years although the returns will dropped 10-20% ...

All can even more.

EPF,5.5%  after 4 years 
Capital : 47K
Return : 8.75K
Total :- 55.74K

Solar after 4 years
Capital :0 k
Return :- 38400
Total:- 38400

Again you don't understand that for FD, capital doesn't change.
*
After 8 and 12 years, pls calculate berapa?
Capital doesn't changed but the ROI is triple of the capital, correct?
You don't understand ROI?

Not everyone benefited from solar if their usages are low like RM200-300 monthly bill.

Love to hear from NEM 2.0 adopters as it's almost been 5 years since this scheme was introduced on January 1st, 2019. What's the ROI to date? And over the 5-year period, how much have you spent on unforeseen costs like maintenance, malfunctions, and others? This way, most of us can understand the actual case: is solar worth it?"
*
NEM 3.0 here, almost 3 years (2y11m), ROI RM26852.02 ... cost RM38k. zero maintenance cost or malfunction or others.

actually tnb generate the power sure the cost is lower de. let say 1 unit they charge you 0.516, probably the cost only 0.1 only. So you pay the 50k for example la, so they also benefit a lot adi. Most important is how long that thing can last? of course nw they can promise you all the moon. This one need you to tell us after 12 years.

Ada warranty la boss ......

Those install in FIT in 2011 should answered you ... more than 12 years

Btw we don't just pay 50k .... got 0% interest installments la dei....

Ic.  So your total Feb production is 1397.27?

That translate to 3.67 Sun hour.

Slightly better than usually promised 3.5sun hour.

Where is your location?

Mine is good for Feb (1411.20kWh) but also hits pass 1500kw TNB usage since got visitors stayed over 15days.

I got two friends living at close vicinity with solar panels installed.

11.5kw and 6.4kw.

Both string inverter

April TNB bill shows 890kwh and 396kwh respectively

And this figure appear to be peak of what their system is producing.

Is this considered ok?
*
Too low, mine is 11.7kw but generate much higher kwh. I think yours is net after daily consumption.

Hmm... its long time investment but also not too long. tongue.gif
As long as one can recoup in 10 years time from the NEM then it is fair enough. There is little point to get the most efficient panel from  consumer point of view. Unless you have very limited roof space, but generally in Malaysia, our house is consider large  laugh.gif

Not so long to ROI la... mine 4.5 years will kaotim, now already 3.5 years.

More like no second hand value cause it's basically useless once the lifespan is over. The chemical inside is not effective in converting solar into electricity anymore.
In some countries, you can just dispose it like a normal appliances due to the toxicity of solar panel. You need contractor with special permit to remove and dispose it for you and that will cost you. If Malaysia, probably nobody cares but if there is such a law in the future, be prepared to pay extra to have it disposed.

If less than 10-15 years old, still an asset bro.
