Navigating Malaysia's Solar ATAP: What Businesses Need to Know in 2026
English
- New Policy Framework: The Solar Accelerated Transition Action Programme (Solar ATAP) replaced the former Net Energy Metering (NEM) 3.0 scheme on January 1, 2026, marking a shift toward greater market-driven renewable energy adoption.
- Operational Capacity: Businesses can now install solar PV systems up to 100% of their maximum electricity demand, providing a significantly higher threshold for self-consumption optimization.
- Pricing Model: Unlike the previous 1-to-1 offset, Solar ATAP credits excess energy exported to the grid based on the System Marginal Price (SMP), adjusting financial returns to current market conditions.
- No Fixed Quotas: The programme operates without the strict, limited quotas of previous initiatives, allowing for more predictable business planning and broader participation.
- Financial Incentives: Businesses can leverage various support mechanisms, including the Green Technology Financing Scheme (GTFS 5.0) and tax incentives like the Green Investment Tax Allowance (GITA), which covers solar PV, battery systems, and EV infrastructure.

- 全新政策框架: “太阳能加速转型行动计划”(Solar ATAP)已于2026年1月1日正式取代原有的净能源计量(NEM)3.0计划,标志着马来西亚向更具市场导向的可再生能源转型。
- 装机容量提升: 企业现在可安装太阳能光伏系统的容量上限提升至其最大电力需求的100%,从而实现更高水平的自发自用优化。
- 定价模式变更: 与以往的“1对1”抵消不同,Solar ATAP根据系统边际价格(SMP)对出口到电网的多余电量进行信用抵扣,使财务回报更贴合当前市场行情。
- 取消固定配额: 该计划不再受限于以往严格的配额限制,为企业规划提供了更高的可预见性,并扩大了市场参与度。
- 财务激励措施: 企业可利用多种支持机制,包括绿色技术融资计划(GTFS 5.0)以及绿色投资税收抵免(GITA)等税收优惠,涵盖太阳能光伏、电池储能系统及电动汽车基础设施。
