What Is Solar ATAP?

Solar ATAP (Solar Accelerated Transition Action Programme) is Malaysia’s official rooftop solar programme that replaces Net Energy Metering (NEM 3.0) for residential consumers. The programme is designed to help homeowners reduce electricity bills by prioritising self-consumption of solar energy, with regulated bill credits for excess energy exported to the grid.

Solar ATAP supports national energy transition goals by encouraging clean energy generation while ensuring system sizing remains aligned with actual household consumption.

How Solar ATAP Works (Residential)

Operating under a structured 10-year programme duration to ensure maximum stability and reliability.

Use Solar Energy First

Solar electricity generated is used immediately to power your home, reducing reliance on grid electricity from TNB.

Receive Bill Credits

Excess energy exported to the grid is credited to your monthly bill. Credits apply within the same billing month.

System Capacity Limits

Max 5 kWac (single-phase) or 15 kWac (three-phase) based on residential load requirements and ATAP guidelines.

Benefits of Solar ATAP

Lower Monthly Bills

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

We have prepared some questions that may answer your questions and concerns. Feel free to ask us more if needed.

What is the Solar ATAP programme?

Solar ATAP (Solar Accelerated Transition Action Programme) is Malaysia’s new rooftop solar initiative starting 1 January 2026. It allows electricity consumers to install solar PV systems, use solar energy for their own electricity needs first, and export any surplus to the grid for bill credits. It replaces the previous Net Energy Metering (NEM) programme.

Why was Solar ATAP introduced?

The programme was introduced to encourage broader adoption of rooftop solar energy in Malaysia, optimise roof usage for renewable electricity generation, and provide a transparent and flexible mechanism for consumers to reduce their electricity costs using solar power.

When does Solar ATAP start?

Solar ATAP officially started on 1 January 2026 following the end of the NEM programme.

Who can apply for Solar ATAP?

Consumers with an active electricity account from Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) — including residential homes and businesses — are eligible. Applicants must not currently be on an active NEM.

How do I apply for Solar ATAP?

Fill up the form to get your instant quote — our team will contact you shortly after submission.

How much solar capacity can I install?
  • Residential (Domestic):
    • Single-phase – up to 5 kW
    • Three-phase – up to 15 kW
  • Non-Domestic (Commercial/Industrial):
    • Up to 100% of your maximum demand, capped at 1,000 kW subject to technical assessment.
What happens to my surplus solar energy?

Excess solar energy exported to the grid will earn bill credits based on:
Residential: energy charge rate;
non-domestic: the average System Marginal Price (SMP) — a market-based electricity price.

Do credits carry over to the next month?

No. Credits apply only in the billing month they are generated and will be forfeited if unused.

Is there a contract period?

Yes. Solar ATAP includes a 10-year contract from the date your system is commissioned under ATAP. After this period, you can continue solar self-consumption, but export credits no longer apply.

Is a battery (BESS) required?

No. Batteries are optional. A Battery Energy Storage System can help store excess solar energy for night-time use, reducing reliance on grid power and increasing savings, but is not mandatory.

Can existing NEM or SELCO users join Solar ATAP?

Existing NEM contracts must be terminated before joining ATAP. SELCO participants may transition depending on eligibility and technical conditions.
