Ya you’re right.
I did more simulations with TNB calculator. Doesn’t matter below 600kWh or above.
EEI will get less and less but they offset your EEI based on import - export.
Meaning… if 1000kWh, you get -RM0.005 / kWh but only they calculate based on the net (import - export).
So as you go higher in kWh each extra kWh will only get more expensive, they give you less rebate based on net import… funny method of doing this EEI. Just a bad overall for NEM user and penalize NEM if usage exceed their export quantity.
Best is as Bee88 mention where to make sure is net 0. Then no bill changes.
there is a cost to use the grid as in the more it load in the less incentive you are getting back,
i guess many new users overspec their system, when i spec mine my target is to reduce to i only pay the subsidize rate only since its national benefit instead of the thinking of my future bill should be 0

In and out 650 where got excess credit?
Or u mean negative tnb bill after applying EEI?
the calculator doesnt allow export > import, as my previous month is on work travelling my export is 559 but import is 376, so the calculator still calculate E = I as u can see the figure auto lower upon finishing typing

Doesn't make sense if NEM users are not qualified for EEI. Not all NEM users are with heavy consumptions.
My gut feel is that the 'formula' was in place to prevent negative bill calculation. For instance, those under 600kwh and with net import-export. TNB would have to 'pay' them with EEI as reward based on new tariff, which again doesn't make sense.
TNB need to fine-tune how the EEI adjustment is calculated.
i suppose the high variance in day night impact the traditional power generation efficiency, thus this high difference of Export vs Import is not prefered by the grid which brings in the "penalty"
i guess we all have to wait and see
