Abstract

The enforcement of the Renewable Energy Act 2011 (Act 725) on 1st December 2011 has allowed the Feed-in-Tariff (FiT) processes to be implemented in Malaysia providing for a sustainable for renewable energy (RE) growth base for the RE Industry in Malaysia including biomass and biogas.Both RE resources have shown promising development and it could be seen from the number of projects which has benefited from the FiT mechanism.Biomass coming from plantation sector especially from the palm oil industry waste such as empty fruit bunches (EFB) and palm oil mill effluent (POME) has a huge potential to be explored for power generation. SEDA Malaysia,being the agency responsible for facilitation of RE growth is playing its role to ensure installations especially those under the Feed-in Tariff (FiT) mechanism meet and complying to the international standards in terms of quality,reliability and safety which will indirectly impact the performance of the biomass power plants.This project uses Kilang Sawit Felda Chini as a place to do research on the Feed-in-Tariff (FiT) process based on the existing biomass generation in the plant.If FiT implemented in this plant, it can provide a great advantage due to the sale of electricity generated each day.However,the investment cost for the implementation of FiT on biomass generation is very high.
