Tariff calculation methodology
Todays international best practice:
Generation cost + reasonable rates of return
Benchmark: cost for renewable electricity
Transparent tariff calculation methodology should be published
Cost factors:
Investment costs (material and capital costs); Grid-related and administrative costs
(including grid connection, costs for licensing procedure); Operation and maintenance costs;
fuels costs (biomass and biogas)
List can be expanded later to include other sources / technology Geothermal (2015)
Export capacity up to 30 MWe (or higher if approved by Minister)
Maximum share of TNB: 49%
Size specific tariffs
Tariff differentiation according to size
Economies of scale
0 kW < Tariff/Price 30 kW
30 kW < Tariff/Price 100 kW
100 kW < Tariff/Price < 2 MW
2 MW and above
Size specific tariffs in Malaysia
Tariff differentiation according to size for small hydro and solar PV in 2012
Class/category of Hydro installation FIT rate (in RM per kWh)
Installed capacity up to & incl. 10MW 0.24
Installed capacity > 10MW, & up to & incl. 30MW 0.23
use of gas engine technology with electrical efficiency of above 40% 0.02
use of locally manufactured or assembled gas engine technology 0.01
use of landfill or sewage gas as fuel source 0.08
Tariff payment duration
Formerly: short periods (logic of
conventional electricity sector)
Effects only new capacity, i.e. tariff for old plants remains stable over long period of time
Most countries only use it for solar PV (Italy, Spain) Source: Klein et al. 2008
Tariff degression in Malaysia
Technology annual degression rate*
Solar PV 8.0%
Biomass 0.5 %
Biogas 0.5 %
Small hydro 0%

Grid related Barriers
Uncertainties in grid access and availability
Insufficient grid capacity
Solution:
Fair and transparent grid connection procedures (Grid Code)
Data need to be verifiable and disclosed by grid operator
Clear connection approach; deep vs shallow vs super shallow
National grid expansion plans has to be prepared well in advance
Grid related Barriers
Cost sharing methodologies for grid connection charging
Solution:
Clear information and early participation in decision making process
National tax/levy schemes can increase social acceptance
Local taxes to benefit local community
Inclusion of local communities with direct benefits e.g co-ownership
