What is ATAP?

Solar ATAP Malaysia for Commercial

The new Solar Accelerated Transition Action (ATAP) programme is reshaping how Malaysian businesses approach solar energy. Replacing the previous Net Energy Metering (NEM 3.0) scheme, ATAP provides a more flexible, long-term policy that empowers factories, warehouses, and commercial buildings to take charge of their energy costs. By joining Solar ATAP Malaysia, commercial businesses can now generate, consume, and export solar power under a system designed for long-term stability and stronger returns on investment. Guidelines and registration details will be released on the Energy Commission (ST) and Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA) websites in early December 2025.

What do Solar ATAP Benefits Commercial Businesses?

The Solar Accelerated Transition Action (ATAP) program is changing how Malaysian businesses manage energy costs. Solar ATAP gives commercial and industrial users more flexibility to generate and export clean solar power. For factories, warehouses, and cold storage facilities with monthly TNB bills above RM1,000, ATAP helps to cut operating costs and boost energy stability.

Save More with Malaysia’s Green Investment Tax Allowance (GITA)

ATAP Benefits for Commercial and Industrial Businesses

Under the Green Investment Tax Allowance (GITA) by MGTC, companies that install approved solar energy systems for their own consumption can enjoy tax incentives on qualifying capital expenditure.

Businesses may claim up to 60% of eligible solar investment and offset up to 70% of statutory income, helping to improve ROI and reduce overall tax burden. This incentive is available for solar assets incurred from 1 January 2024 – 31 December 2026.

Whether your factory operates only in the daytime (ATAP) or 24 hours with battery storage (ATAP + BESS), GITA helps you lower energy costs while supporting Malaysia’s clean-energy goals for 2050.

Terms & conditions apply. Eligibility subject to MIDA/MGTC approval and MyHIJAU-listed equipment.

ATAP + BESS: For 24-Hour or High-Demand Operations

How does the Solar System Work.

If your factory runs day and night like having cold storage, food processing, or any operation that cannot risk operation downtime, ATAP + BESS is a game changer.

During the day, solar powers your equipment and charges the battery. At night, the battery takes over, ensuring consistent electricity even when the grid is not stable. It’s like having a power bank for your factory, ready whenever you need it.

Best for:

● 24-hour operations or factories with night shifts
● Facilities with refrigeration or sensitive machinery
● Businesses seeking maximum power stability and ROI

ATAP Only: For Daytime or Moderate Use Factories

For many small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Malaysia, adopting Solar ATAP without BESS is the most cost-effective solution. This setup powers factory operations directly during daylight hours (8 AM–6 PM), helping to reduce TNB electricity bills and achieve faster payback.

By installing Solar ATAP, SMEs enjoy lower operating costs, shorter payback periods, and support Malaysia’s renewable energy goals, all without the added cost of a battery system.

Best for:

● Factories mainly operating in Daytime only
● Businesses seeking faster payback and lower upfront cost

Conclusion: Choosing the Right Setup

If your operations never shut down, ATAP + BESS gives you round-the-clock power stability, backup protection, and long-term energy independence. But if your factory mainly runs during daylight hours and you’re aiming for faster payback with lower investment cost, ATAP only is your best option.

Not only that, with Solar PV System, this helps to elevate your company ESG and sustainability profile, and to gain stronger market trust.
