Sorry, can I ask about this solaris rebate.
So the solaris is bank into your TnB account? it is not offset as payment when you install your solar?
*
It's pay to your bank account by tnb.

U got to pay the solar providers then u claim back from tnb through solaris.

Based on this, only take 3 years to break even.

TNB did a cut off, once NEM is successfully registered and for my May bill from 22 to 31st is only RM 0.90.

By the way, your 4kw system is very amazing, the generation is very high.

Just rough calculation though, for a 10k investment if to break even 3 years. You will need a rebate of RM277 per month, your usage will be of 680kwh per month at least or higher.
*
We are getting like 4 to 5 hrs of sunshine on average.

Estimation is to cover rm200 per month.

Now waiting for the 5th Jul tnb bill to see how much extra is generated. Wanna see if is match to what the app shows.

Got the first full month NEM bill.

App shows total electricity generated 575kwh but tnb actual is only 452kwh. We see the first row right? Anyone can confirm?

So before Solaris was 14k? 6kW inverter with only 4kW panel?

Yes to be exact RM14210 before Solaris.

Solaris supposed to be 2.7k but they wrongly submitted thats why I get 4k.

That's RM3552/kWp. They gave you a good inverter, Sungrow, single phase. If your house is 3 phase then.. not so great.

Cheap.. hmm, I won't say so, but your inverter is now underrated, you can add more panels inf future if your electricity usage increase or you change to an EV.
*
It's RM2552/kwp after solaris rebate.

The purpose it's I don't want to pay electricity bill so i wouldn't purposely use more just to breakeven faster.

EV will be an option when there's no more fuel subsidies.

May to Dec 2024

3.7mwh generated. Should be more due to router issue mid Nov to mid Dec no data recorded.

Thinking to switch to BEV car soon since solar is generating more that what we used every month.
