ROOFTOP SOLAR IN INDUSTRIAL DESIGN

INTRODUCTION

Total Power Solutions Sdn. Bhd. (TOPs) conducts services such as to engineer, procure, and construct solar PV systems for Clients who intent to generate renewable power under the SEDA NEM program for own consumption and the energy generated will offset part of the electricity bill for energy provided by the Distribution Licensee (TNB) hence reduce the energy demand from TNB. Net Energy Metering or known as NEM applies when electricity is being generated for own usage and any excess can be exported to the grid. Sold electricity will be compensated by crediting 1-1 to the utility bill. The solar system shall be connected to the main distribution board for the building consumption. Such installation is recognised as own energy generation which is allowable by Electricity Supply Act 1990.

The solar project shall reduce Client’s electricity cost bills besides enjoy double tax deduction; through Capital Allowance (CA) by Internal Revenue Board and Investment Tax Allowance (ITA) by MIDA.
