Now Costs RM6.72/Litre
Solar + Battery Costs RM0.
Diesel went from RM2.15 to RM6.72 in under 2 years. That's 213% more. It's not coming back down. Here's your way out.
Why Your Genset Is a Liability
Three compounding costs that make diesel generation increasingly untenable in 2026.
Fuel Costs Are Crushing Margins
RM6.72/L means a 50kVA genset running 8 hours/day burns through RM19,350 every month. That's RM232,200 per year — just in diesel. Not including maintenance, breakdowns, or the driver who refills the tank.
Maintenance Never Stops
Oil changes every 250 hours. Filters, belts, coolant, overhauls. Budget RM500–2,000/month on top of fuel. Diesel engines degrade — performance drops, repairs escalate. Solar panels have no moving parts and last 25+ years.
Noise, Fumes & Compliance Risk
ESG reporting is mandatory for large companies. Noise regulations exist near residential areas. OSHA fumes exposure rules apply to workers. Every hour your genset runs is a liability. Solar is completely silent, zero-emission, and ESG-compliant from day one.
Find Your Solar Replacement
From a RM2,500 portable unit for a food truck to a RM5M industrial BESS — every genset has a solar replacement.
