On-site solar, CRESS, GET or RECs — which one actually makes sense for your business?

There are now several ways for companies in Malaysia to procure renewable energy, but each option works differently.

On-site solar helps reduce electricity consumption directly at your premises.

CRESS allows companies to procure renewable electricity from a renewable energy developer through the grid.

GET provides a simpler way to subscribe to green electricity through TNB.

RECs are useful for companies looking to address the renewable attributes of their electricity consumption, especially where physical renewable energy options are limited.

In many cases, the right answer may be a combination of these options rather than choosing only one.

We have put together a simple guide comparing On-Site Solar, CRESS, GET and RECs, and the key considerations companies should look at when deciding what works best for them.

Is your company affected by EECA 2024?

The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Act 2024 has introduced new requirements for large energy consumers in Malaysia, including energy management, reporting and periodic energy audits.

For companies looking at compliance, solar and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can play an important role.

Solar helps reduce electricity purchased from the grid, while BESS can help manage peak demand, improve solar utilisation and optimise how energy is used throughout the day.

However, solar and BESS alone do not automatically make a company EECA-compliant. They need to be part of a proper energy management strategy with the right monitoring, reporting and planning in place.

EECA should not only be viewed as a compliance exercise. It is also an opportunity for companies to review how they use energy and find ways to reduce long-term operating costs.

What can Malaysia learn from China’s energy transition?

A recent visit to Shanghai gave us a glimpse of how quickly the energy industry is changing.

Solar is no longer just about panels. It is increasingly connected with battery storage, smart inverters, automation, AI energy management and intelligent control.

But the biggest lesson is not any single technology. It is the speed and scale at which the whole ecosystem is developing.

For Malaysia, the opportunity is clear. As solar and battery storage become more competitive and accessible, businesses that understand these changes early will be better positioned for what comes next.

At Progressture Solar, we believe the future of energy will belong to those who are willing to learn, adapt and move quickly.

How much can a Malaysian factory actually save with Solar + BESS?

The answer depends heavily on how your factory consumes electricity — especially your daytime load and maximum demand.

For illustration, a 500 kWp solar system with 85% self-consumption could avoid around RM158,000 a year in energy charges.

A BESS that consistently reduces peak demand by 150 kW could potentially address another RM174,000 a year in capacity and network charges.

But every factory is different. The right way to size Solar + BESS is to analyse your actual electricity bills and load profile — not rely on a standard percentage-saving claim.

**What can Malaysia learn from Shanghai’s energy revolution? 🇲🇾⚡🇨🇳**

My biggest takeaway from SNEC is that the future of energy is not about one single product—it is about building a complete energy ecosystem.

From high-efficiency solar panels and battery energy storage systems to smart inverters, automation, robotics and AI-powered energy management, the industry is moving faster than ever.

China’s ability to innovate and manufacture at scale has made clean-energy technology more efficient, competitive and accessible. Malaysia has a strong opportunity to learn from this progress, adopt the right technologies and accelerate our own energy transition.

The future belongs to companies and countries that understand the changes early—and move quickly. ☀️🔋🌏

What do you think Malaysia should prioritise in its renewable-energy journey?

Can solar farms move beyond land and calm lakes—and into the sea? 🌊☀️

At one of the world’s largest solar and BESS exhibitions in Shanghai, we discovered an innovative floating solar platform designed to move with the waves and operate in more challenging water conditions.

Traditional floating solar systems are commonly installed on lakes and reservoirs. Sea-capable floating technology could open a new frontier for countries like Malaysia, allowing us to generate clean energy while reducing the need for valuable land.

There are still important factors to evaluate, including engineering reliability, corrosion resistance, environmental impact and long-term maintenance—but the potential is exciting.

At Progressture Solar, we continue exploring new technologies that can make renewable energy smarter, more scalable and better suited to Malaysia’s future.

Could floating solar become the next major source of clean energy in Malaysia?

Could drones change the way we maintain rooftop solar? 🚁☀️

Dust and dirt can block sunlight and affect the performance of solar panels. However, conventional cleaning may require skylifts, additional manpower and technicians working at height.

Drone-assisted solar panel cleaning offers a smarter alternative—helping operators reach difficult areas more safely, quickly and efficiently while supporting consistent energy generation.

At Progressture Solar, we believe the future of solar is not only about installing more panels. It is also about adopting better technologies to operate, maintain and protect each solar system throughout its lifecycle.

Would you consider drone-assisted cleaning for your solar panels?

☀️ **A major new chapter for Malaysia’s renewable energy industry has begun.**

The Government has announced plans for the **Large Scale Solar Round 6 (LSS6)** programme, introducing:

⚡ **2,500 MW of solar capacity**
🔋 **1,250 MW of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)**
🌱 **150 MW dedicated to Bumiputera solar developers**

The programme will be implemented through three packages, including open tenders for large-scale Solar + BESS projects and dedicated opportunities for Bumiputera companies.

Beyond increasing renewable-energy capacity, LSS6 is expected to:

✅ Attract approximately **RM13–15 billion in private investment**
✅ Create up to **15,000–20,000 jobs**
✅ Reduce carbon emissions by approximately **2.6 million tonnes annually**
✅ Strengthen Malaysia’s grid stability through hybrid Solar + BESS development

This announcement marks an important shift for the industry. Solar development is no longer only about generating clean electricity—it is increasingly about combining generation, storage, grid reliability and long-term energy security.

At **Progressture Solar**, we welcome this significant development and look forward to contributing our experience, capabilities and partnerships toward Malaysia’s next phase of energy transition.

The opportunities are substantial—but successful delivery will require strong technical ex*****on, bankable project structures, reliable technology partners and disciplined long-term operations.

Malaysia’s energy transition is accelerating. The industry must be ready.
