βIs solar really worth it long-term? What do the numbers say after 10 years?β
β The math is clear β most Malaysian households save tens of thousands of ringgit within a decade of going solar.
Letβs break it down.
πΈ Sample Scenario: A Family Spending RM500/Month
Hereβs a realistic example under 2025βs TNB rates:
- Monthly TNB bill: RM500
- After solar: RM30βRM50 (with NEM)
- Monthly savings: ~RM450
- Annual savings: ~RM5,400
- 10-year savings: RM54,000
Thatβs equivalent to a double-storey kitchen renovation β just from reducing your electricity bill.
βοΈ What Influences the 10-Year ROI?
β
Your original TNB usage
β
System size (e.g. 6.82kWp vs 10kWp)
β
Daytime energy habits (WFH, aircond, appliances)
β
Tariff increases β which solar protects you against
Many customers recover their cost within 4β6 years, meaning the next 4β5 years are pure profit.
π Bonus: Property Value & Lifespan
Solar systems come with:
- 25β30 years performance lifespan
- 10β15 year warranty for panels and inverters
- Added home resale value (RM10kβRM20k boost)
Even if you move, the savings continue.
