The Energy Commission of Sabah (ECoS) has updated its solar energy guidelines and a new investment framework for Sabahans to switch to clean and renewable energy.
To support the growth of solar energy in the State, ECoS introduced the updated SELCO-PV Sabah 2.0 guidelines which now allows homeowners and businesses to install solar systems to generate electricity mainly for their own use.
Domestic consumers may install solar PV systems up to 5 kW for single phase connections and up to 10 kW for three phase connections, while commercial and industrial consumers are permitted to install systems sized up to 85 percent of their Maximum Demand.
ECoS requires prior approval for off grid solar PV installations over 5 kWp, and all installations must obtain a SELCO-PV SABAH 2.0 Approval to Install (SATI) from ECoS before work commences.
This ensures that only companies with proven technical capability and financial strength are permitted to operate in Sabah.Foreign companies are not eligible to register, while Malaysian companies from outside Sabah must ensure that at least 80% of their workforce are local Sabahans throughout their registration period.
