Renewable Energy：Feed-in-Tariff Scheme

From 1st October 2018 onwards, once the system is connected to the electric grid, you can earn FiT payment (ranges from $3-5/ kWh), until 31st December 2033. So if you have a place where you can build a solar energy system, for instance, village house/ villa’s rooftop, residential building roof, industrial building roof, carpark space, warehouses, you are eligible to earn regular income for 15 years.

- If the total system capacity is between 10kW to 200kW, the FiT rate is $4 per kWh, generally applicable to industrial building and schools’ rooftops.
- If the total system capacity is between 200kW to 1000kW, the FiT rate is $3 per kWh, generally applicable to warehouses and agricultural land.
