What's Included in the Price?

A typical solar installation package includes:

  • Solar panels (Tier-1 brands like JinkoSolar, LONGi, Canadian Solar)
  • Inverter (Huawei, Sungrow, or Growatt)
  • Mounting system (aluminium rails and stainless steel brackets)
  • Wiring and electrical work
  • NEM application (Net Energy Metering)
  • SolaRIS rebate application (up to RM4,000)
  • Commissioning and testing
  • Warranty (25-year panel, 5-10 year inverter)
  • Government Rebate: SolaRIS

    The SolaRIS (Solar Rakyat Incentive Scheme) program offers residential customers a rebate of up to RM4,000. This effectively reduces your system cost:

  • 4 kW system: RM15,000 - RM4,000 = **RM11,000 effective cost**
  • 8 kW system: RM28,000 - RM4,000 = **RM24,000 effective cost**
  • Factors That Affect Price
