What is Solar ATAP?

Solar ATAP (Solar Accelerated Transition Action Programme) is Malaysia's new 2026 rooftop solar initiative by PETRA. Unlike NEM 3.0, it allows commercial and residential users to install solar PV systems with no quota limit, 10-year contracts, and export excess energy at the System Marginal Price (SMP). Applications open January 1, 2026 via SEDA Malaysia.

What is SMP (System Marginal Price)?

System Marginal Price (SMP) is the wholesale electricity clearing price in Malaysia's Single Buyer market. Under Solar ATAP, commercial and industrial users receive export credits calculated at the SMP rate, which fluctuates based on market demand. SMP is typically RM0.20-0.40 per kWh and is determined by TNB Grid System Operator.

What is Maximum Demand (MD) for Solar?

Maximum Demand (MD) is the highest amount of electrical power (in kW) your premises draws from TNB grid during a billing period. Under Solar ATAP 2026, commercial users can install solar systems up to 100% of their MD (increased from 75% under NEM 3.0), capped at 1MWac.

What is GITA Tax Incentive for Solar?

GITA (Green Investment Tax Allowance) is a Malaysian tax incentive for green technology investments. Businesses installing solar panels and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can claim 100% Investment Tax Allowance on qualifying expenditures. GITA has been extended through 2026 by MIDA.

What are Solar Export Credits?

Solar export credits are bill offsets you receive when your solar panels produce more electricity than you consume. Under Solar ATAP, excess energy is exported to the TNB grid and credited to your bill. Domestic users receive credits at retail tariff rates (RM0.27-0.37/kWh). Commercial users receive credits at SMP rates. Credits must be used within the same billing month.

Malaysia's 2050 Target

The government targets 70% renewable energy capacity by 2050. Solar accounts for 93% of national RE capacity (~4,243 MW), making rooftop solar expansion critical to achieving this goal.

Why ATAP Replaced NEM

NEM 3.0's 2,500 MW quota was nearly exhausted. The residential quota (NEM Rakyat) hit 99.8% capacity by May 2025, forcing the government to remove quota restrictions with Solar ATAP.

Understanding Solar ATAP: Guide by Your Local Installer

The Solar Accelerated Transition Action Programme (ATAP) is Malaysia's new rooftop solar initiative by PETRA. As your solar contractor, we manage the full SEDA application and TNB connection process — from design to commissioning. Applications open 1 January 2026 via SEDA Malaysia.

Self-Consumption First

Generate and use your own solar power to reduce electricity bills significantly.

Better Offsets

Non-domestic users: Offset at System Marginal Price (SMP). Domestic users: Offset at prevailing retail energy tariff (RM0.27/kWh for ≤1,500 kWh/month, RM0.37/kWh for >1,500 kWh/month).

Battery Integration

Add battery storage to maximise savings - especially beneficial if your consumption is higher at night.

Core Program Rules

Solar ATAP Quota
Unlike NEM 3.0, Solar ATAP has no fixed national quota. Applications are open year-round starting January 1, 2026.
System Sizing Limit
Commercial users can install up to 100% of Maximum Demand (MD), increased from the previous 75% cap under NEM 3.0.
Export Rate (Commercial)
Excess energy is exported at the System Marginal Price (SMP), a market-driven rate determined by TNB.
Export Rate (Residential)
Domestic users receive credits at the prevailing retail energy tariff: RM0.27/kWh for usage ≤1,500 kWh/month, RM0.37/kWh for usage above.
Contract Duration
Solar ATAP contract is valid for 10 years. After this period, you can continue using your system for self-consumption but export credits end.
Eligible Participants
Open to all TNB account holders — residential, commercial, and industrial — who do not have an existing solar PV system.

How Solar ATAP Works

Understanding the energy flow and billing under the new programme

Solar Panels

Generate electricity from sunlight

Your Property

Use solar power first (self-consumption)

Export excess Import when needed

TNB Grid

Non-domestic: SMP | Domestic: Retail Tariff

Market-based Energy Offset Rates

Non-domestic users: Offset at System Marginal Price (SMP) - the wholesale electricity clearing price that fluctuates based on market demand.

Domestic users: Offset at prevailing retail energy tariff - RM0.27/kWh if monthly usage is ≤1,500 kWh, or RM0.37/kWh if usage exceeds 1,500 kWh.

Pro Tip: Adding battery storage allows you to store excess energy for night use instead of exporting, maximising your savings and providing backup power.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Solar ATAP

How do I apply for Solar ATAP?

To apply for Solar ATAP: 1) Contact a SEDA-registered installer like us for a site assessment. 2) We design your system and submit the application to SEDA. 3) After approval, we install the system. 4) TNB inspects and connects your system to the grid. The entire process takes 4-8 weeks.

How much does solar panel installation cost in Malaysia?

Solar panel installation in Malaysia costs RM3,000-4,500 per kW. For a typical home (5kW system), expect RM15,000-RM25,000 including panels, inverter, installation, and SEDA registration. Commercial systems (50kW+) have lower per-kW costs due to scale.

Who is eligible for Solar ATAP?

You are eligible if you: 1) Are an existing TNB account holder (residential, commercial, or industrial). 2) Do not have an existing solar PV system. 3) Own the property or have landlord approval. Both landed houses and some strata properties qualify.

What is the difference between Solar ATAP and SELCO?

Solar ATAP: Export excess energy to TNB grid for bill credits, 10-year contract. SELCO: Self-consumption only, no grid export, no contract. Choose ATAP if you have high daytime usage. Choose SELCO if you want flexibility or plan to add batteries.

How long is the payback period for solar panels?

The payback period for solar panels in Malaysia is typically 5-8 years. After payback, you enjoy nearly free electricity for another 17-20 years (panels last 25+ years). Actual ROI depends on your electricity consumption, tariff, and system size.
