The government of Malaysia has announced a new rebate scheme for home solar installations.
The Sustainable Rebate and Incentive Assistance (SuRIA) Home initiative will offer home solar owners a rebate of MYS 600 ($151.27)/kWac, up to a maximum MYS 3,000 per household for a 5 kWac system.
To be eligible for the rebate, homeowners must have installed the solar system under Malaysia’s new net metering scheme for rooftop PV, the Solar Accelerated Transition Action Program, which rolled out earlier this year. The solar installer must have been registered with Malaysia’s Sustainable Energy Development Authority, while Malaysian electricity company Tenaga Nasional Berhad must have commissioned the installation.
