Abstract

Renewable energy is no longer an alien concept in the eyes of the world. For example Malaysia has a variety of renewable energy sources, one of which is solar energy. Solar energy is one of Malaysia's newest and fastest-growing technologies. This may give a chance for domestic students to learn more about solar technology. Various government attempts to improve the usage of solar energy, also known as Net Energy Metering, to assist individuals save money on their utility bills. This system is well suited for usage in both commercial and residential settings. However, due to the unsatisfactory financial returns, public engagement in this programme is low. People are also less knowledgeable of the advantages of embracing renewable energy sources. The project demonstrates that the government is still trying to persuade individuals to switch to solar energy. Furthermore, the goal of this study is to determine the performance of solar PV installations under NEM3.0, the most recent government programme that can produce power efficiently. In addition, this project also shows that energy generated using solar PV installations under NEM 3.0 is more economical than electricity from suppliers such as TNB. The data regarding solar energy generated was collected using the iSolarCloud application. One of the objective of this initiative is which consumers save money when extra energy is resold
