|---|---|---|
| Export Rate | 1-to-1 retail offset | Energy Charge rate (~RM0.27-0.37/kWh) |
| Quota | Limited, first-come-first-served | No quota limits |
| Capacity | 4kW (single) / 10kW (three-phase) | 5kW (single) / 15kW (three-phase) |

| Contract | 10 years | 10 years |
Q2: How much will I earn for exporting excess solar energy under Solar ATAP? For residential customers, export credits are based on TNB’s Energy Charge rates:
- ≤1,500 kWh/month usage: ~RM0.27/kWh
- >1,500 kWh/month usage: ~RM0.37/kWh
Important: These credits reset to zero every month—they don’t roll over or accumulate. This makes maximizing self-consumption critical. Commercial users receive the System Marginal Price (SMP), which varies monthly based on market rates.
