Green Electricity Tariff (GET)

- The renewable energy resources for GET Programme are generated by solar power plants under the Large-Scale Solar (LSS) Programme and TNB's and/or its subsidiary’s hydropower stations and any other renewable energy plants which may be approved by the Commission from time to time.
- Consumers enrolled in GET programme will receive Malaysia Renewable Energy Certificate (mREC) after the end of a calendar year. Consumers are not able to select or determine the type of renewable energy sources they want for their mREC in this bundled mREC program.
- Changes to GET terms and conditions are subject to Government’s review from time to time.
