βοΈ FEATURED Β· MY SOLAR EXPERIENCE
Thinking About Solar for Your Home in Penang?
Here’s my real experience after 2 years.
I installed a 9.8 kW solar system at my home in Balik Pulau in September 2024. I’m happy with the system and service so far. Here are the actual generation figures recorded in my monitoring app, plus a few things worth considering if you’re exploring solar for your home or business.
Want to explore solar? WhatsApp PenangBiz and I’ll introduce you to an experienced solar consultant. The consultant will advise on suitability, quotation, equipment, installation and the latest programme requirements.
For residential and commercial enquiries. PenangBiz may receive a referral fee for successful introductions. Contact details are shared with the consultant only with your permission.
