With so many advantages over string..and negligible price difference..why many still choose string over micro inverter?

Tumpang Thread,

currently seeking proposal for solar installation.

I'm still new with solar initiative

here what I have got so far

a. Verdant: 25,900 after MBB discount (8.54kWP)
b. GSPARX: 27k-28k (7.93kWP)

So far Verdant okay?

I'm still waiting for Sols Energy proposal.

All this for string?..quite expensive. Cash price or instalment

Yes.  I can only think of the low price is due to bulk purchase, It doesn’t fit into the price that I know of all these while.

I thought mine already cheap at around $2890/kW under instalment..

What with that triple 5? Including insurance 5 years?

Wondering if still can make it in time to claim SOLARIS rebate as the 30th April deadline is approaching.

Yes. My cousin experience.  Signed up mid March. Installation date April 10.

My uncle experience. Signed up late March. Installation 20 April.

All just trying their luck now. They took too long to think about solar last time.
*
good vendor should advise client realistically whether they can still get the rebate on time

For me already told if I don't get the rebate I'll minus RM 4k from the full payment..so far only depo paid.

Wanna ask your opinion on the proposal given (3 phase)

1. System size: 11kWp
2. Savings around RM 600 per month
3. Number of solar panels: 18 to 20 units
4. Price range RM 30k - RM 38k depends on the package you choose.
*
Can get below 34k for micro inverter.now maybe too late to get the rebate. Why not wait until rebate is over when demand is slower and see what is the actual price..

Just got back from the home expo.. saw TRD Energy and Pathgreen. TRD using string Huawei inverter and Pathgreen using hoymiles micro inverter. And the panels TRD using Jinko and I forgot which one Pathgreen using already. In the end, TRD seems to be more expensive by about 10-15%. Anyone got any feedback on these two? Really unsure what would be better and is TRD worth the extra money?
*
why string more expensive than micro?..both use 1st tier panel not much difference

Seems TOU more beneficial, lower tariff at night. But really need to wait & see, the way this tariff is done seems to be very confusing.

Come across soya cincau article..seem TOU offer better rates for solar and EV user

Mine, from PG too. 7.38kW system. The highest ever generated was 42.07kWh on that particular day.

The micro inverter can peak out at 2.04kW per micro inverter or 6.12kW max for all 3 micro inverters. It won't go any higher.
