How This Affects Your Business
OPTR scheme supports customers that operate between 8am to 10pm daily to extend their business and operating hours and thus enjoy a 20% discount on all units consumed between 10pm to 8am if their load factor for the month is greater than their 6 months average load factor. With the 20% discount applied to electricity usage during those hours, you stand to enjoy significant savings in your monthly electricity bill.
Eligibility For Discount
You are eligible to enjoy 20% discount on all units consumed between 10pm to 8am if:
- The monthly Load Factor is greater than the Average Load Factor (ALF) over six (6) months period. The ALF is fixed based on 6 months average load factor prior to change of meter date. For the month where the load factor is less that the fixed ALF, customers will not be eligible for the discount.
- Load factor refers to the ratio of the average energy consumption in kWh (for a certain period) to Maximum peak requirement for a similar period.
You have a Load Factor that’s higher than average in the last 6 months.
Load factor = Total energy consumption in kWh for a certain period
(Maximum demand x total hours) for a certain period
You do not have an outstanding amount not more than the total deposit/bank guarantee paid. Otherwise this outstanding amount must be settled before applying.
Additional requirement
The OPTR scheme will be activated in the following consumption period (meter reading month), as soon as all requirements are met and all metering-related works are completed.
*Note
You are not required to enroll in this scheme and you reserve the right to remain with your existing tariff rates should it prove to be more beneficial to you and your business.
