What if you could never pay for fuel or electricity again? With a solar panel system paired with an EV charger, thousands of Malaysians are doing exactly that. Here's the complete guide to the Solar + EV Charger bundle — the smartest energy investment you can make in 2026.
The Math: Solar + EV vs Traditional Car + Grid
Let's compare a typical Malaysian household's energy costs over 10 years:
| Expense | Traditional (Petrol + Grid) | Solar + EV Bundle |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly electricity | RM300 | RM0 (solar covers it) |
| Monthly fuel | RM500 | RM0 (solar charges EV) |
| Annual energy cost | RM9,600 | RM0 |
| 10-year energy cost | RM96,000 | RM0 |
| Upfront investment | RM0 | RM20,800 |
| Net savings over 10 years | — | RM75,200 |
That's right — you save RM75,200 over 10 years with a one-time investment of RM20,800. The system pays for itself in just 2.6 years.

How Solar + EV Charging Works
- Daytime: Solar panels generate electricity, powering your home and excess charges your EV
- Evening: Battery storage (if equipped) powers your home after sunset
- Overnight: Smart charger schedules EV charging during off-peak TNB rates (if needed)
- Weekend: Excess solar export earns credit under Solar ATAP
Real Customer Example: The Tan Family, Petaling Jaya
The Tan family installed the Essential Bundle (6kW solar + 7kW charger) in January 2026:

- After: RM0 electricity + RM0 fuel = RM0/mo
- Monthly savings: RM800
- Payback period: 26 months (2 years 2 months)
- 25-year savings: RM219,200
Financing Options: RM0 Upfront
Can't pay upfront? No problem. Several options make Solar + EV affordable:
| Option | Monthly Payment | Net Monthly Savings |
|---|---|---|
| Bank loan (5 years) | RM420 | RM380 (you STILL save) |
| green bank loans | RM0 (lump sum) | RM800 |
| Hire purchase (7 years) | RM320 | RM480 |
| PPA (zero upfront) | Pay per kWh used | RM200-400 |
Even with financing, you save money from month one. Your loan payment is always less than what you'd spend on electricity + petrol. Compare all financing options.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much roof space do I need for solar + EV charging?
A 6kW system needs approximately 30 sqm of roof space (about 2 car parking spots). Most terrace and semi-D homes have sufficient roof area. Check your roof with our calculator.
What if it's cloudy or rainy?
Solar panels still generate 20-30% power on cloudy days. Malaysia averages 4-5 peak sun hours daily year-round. During prolonged rain, your EV charger switches to grid power automatically.
Can I charge two EVs with one solar system?
Yes! A 10kW solar system can easily charge two EVs. Install a second 7kW charger for RM2,150-4,500 additional. The Premium Bundle is designed for dual-EV households.
Does the bundle include Solar ATAP application?
Yes, all Trexon bundles include free Solar ATAP application, TNB paperwork, and SEDA registration. Learn about Solar ATAP.
