Malaysia’s Sustainable Energy Development Authority (Seda) has reported total net-metered PV capacity reached 108 MW at the end of November. The organization said the lion’s share of the figure – 94.14 MW – was deployed in the first 11 months of last year alone. That new project rush came after Malaysia added just 10 kW of rooftop solar in 2016, 2.33 MW in 2017 and 11.53 MW in 2018. Industrial installations account for 75.01 MW of the country’s rooftop generation capacity, with commercial arrays adding a further 25.18 MW. Residential systems added up to 7.67 MW to the end of November and 130 kW of agricultural projects completed the aggregate figure. To qualify for net metering credits for excess electricity exported to the grid, residential systems must have a generation capacity no larger than 12 kWp – for single-phase systems – and 72 kWp for three-phase installations. Commercial and industrial arrays can be either up to 1 MWp or capable of supplying 75% of estimated demand, whichever is lower. One-for-one The growing popularity of net metering, according to Seda, is down to the Net Energy Metering 2.0 program, which permits the sale of excess power to the grid on a one-for-one basis versus grid power kilowatts consumed. Under the previous regime, exported energy carried less value than consumed grid power. “This has managed to reduce the period for return of investment to a mere three years, especially for commercial and industrial installations, which [have] also benefited from the various tax incentives given by the government,” said the authority. However, the popularity of net metering still appears unlikely to be sufficient to achieve Malaysia’s target of hitting 500 MW of generation capacity in the segment this year. Net metering replaced a feed-in tariff incentive scheme in January 2016. In May 2017, Malaysia made the system more attractive. At the end of 2018, the country had around 438 MW of installed solar generation capacity, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency.

Malaysia-based clean power expert Solarvest Holdings Berhad through its wholly-owned Taiwan subsidiary has actually signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Hsinjing Holding Corporate to discover chances to develop approximately 500MW of solar in Taiwan by 2025. Hsinjing is a well-known financier and design, procurement building and construction, and commissioning professional of solar systems for commercial as well as industrial services, as well as large-scale solar projects. Solarvest group president Davis Chong Chun Shiong stated: "Today's MoU finalizing with Hsinjing is an essential step for us as we progress our regional expansion agenda and also expand within the Taiwanese RE market. " We are tremendously delighted to be teaming up with a strong neighborhood companion, whose familiarity with the country's administration as well as laws would verify important in the venture's success. " We are additionally motivated by the shared self-confidence shown by Hsinjing towards our technological abilities in executing large-scale solar projects. " With each other, we have set a target to create solar projects with a collective capability of 500MW in Taiwan by the end of 2025."

Malaysia's Ministry of Power and also Natural Resources has actually announced the 4th round of the country's Large Range Solar (LSS) procurement system will open on Sunday. The ministry tweeted, the optimum size of projects eligible has been cut in half, from 100 MW to 50 MW, to allow even more programmers to take part. Each programmer will certainly be restricted to an optimum of three quotes. Half of the available ability will be for 10-30 MW projects with the balance for larger facilities and effective candidates will have until completion of 2023 to obtain their plants connected to the grid. The Malaysian government has actually currently held three purchase rounds under the nationwide tender program. Previous rounds A preliminary, in 2016, designated 200 MW of capacity across the peninsula plus 50 MW in Sabah, northern Borneo, of the hoped-for total of 370 MW. The second LSS tender, the following year, was nearer to its designated 520 MW target as it designated 360 MW of peninsular solar and also 100 MW throughout Sabah and the islands of Labuan. The exercise still failed, nonetheless, regardless of drawing in bids for 1.6 GW of ability, at costs varying from MYR0.33-0.53/ kWh. The last tender round brought in 112 quotes, for more than 6.73 GW of generation ability and also with a lowest solar power price of MYR0.17777/ kWh ($0.041). Nevertheless, power regulatory authority Suruhanjaya Tenaga has shortlisted only five prospective buyers, for an overall generation capability of 490 MW, to hint the workout will certainly again be under-subscribed. At the end of 2019, Malaysia had 882 MW of solar capability, according to International Renewable resource Agency numbers.
