JASIN: The government, via the Ministry of Energy, Science, Technology, Environment and Climate Change (MESTECC), aims to raise its net energy metering (NEM) programme output to 300 megawatts (MW) this year.
MESTECC Minister Yeo Bee Yin said last year, the Sustainable Energy Development Authority Malaysia (SEDA) approved 102MW under the NEM programme, adding that the 300MW target can be achieved through the new NEM policy implemented last year.
"Under the new NEM policy, we are using a 'one-on-one' offset basis, whereby if the energy generated is purchased at 50 sen, it is sold at 50 sen, and this worthwhile investment saw a high take up rate which led to generation of 102MW in clean energy last year.
