Why Developers Plan Solar at Design Stage

Solar and battery storage planned into the master plan avoid rework on roofs, distribution boards and risers, and give buyers, tenants and assessors something tangible.

Differentiate the Project

Rooftop solar and storage give buyers and tenants a visible, practical sustainability feature.

savings

Lower Common-Area Running Costs

Solar can offset electricity used by clubhouses, car parks, lifts, pumps and lighting, easing costs for the management body.

construction

Fewer Retrofit Conflicts

Roof zones, risers, conduits and inverter space are reserved early, so solar is not a late change order.

handshake

One Accountable Partner

One EPCC partner across common areas and individual homes, with O&M available after handover.

Supporting Green Building Certification

Rooftop solar and energy storage can support the energy-performance goals of Malaysian green rating tools such as the Green Building Index (GBI). Ratings are assessed by the relevant rating body, not by ERS.

Energy Performance

On-site solar generation and storage can contribute to a building’s energy-performance profile.

Documentation for Assessors

ERS can provide technical documentation for the solar and storage systems to support your rating submission.

Integrated Building Systems

Solar can be integrated with building management systems, so generation is used where the building needs it.

Solar, Storage and EV Across the Development

From common areas to individual homes, ERS can engineer solar, battery storage and EV charging into the development.

solar_power

Common-Area Solar

Rooftop solar on clubhouses, car parks, guardhouses and commercial lots can be designed to serve common-area loads.

home

Rooftop-Ready Homes

Conduits, roof structure and inverter and distribution board space can be prepared so buyers can add solar later. ERS manages the Solar ATAP application with SEDA and TNB for buyers.

battery_charging_full

Battery Storage

Battery storage can be designed in to support critical common-area loads such as lifts, pumps and security, and to help manage peak demand.

ev_station

EV-Ready Parking

EV charging can be designed in, with conduits and load capacity planned in the base build and chargers paired with rooftop solar.

Engineering at Master-Plan Stage

Our engineers join early to size roofs and loads and plan the grid connection alongside your M&E and structural consultants.

Load and Roof Yield Study

Roof areas and expected loads are assessed to size solar and storage for each building type.

Structural Loading

Roof loading and roof zones are coordinated with your structural consultant before drawings are frozen.

electric_meter

DB and Metering Strategy

Distribution board space, metering and inverter rooms are planned into the electrical design.

Approvals

SEDA, TNB and MGTC where applicable, coordinated with the relevant authorities, including for battery storage rooms.

Flexible Ways to Fund Common-Area Solar

Common-area systems can be funded by cash purchase, green loan or a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), where ERS finances, owns and maintains the system so there is no upfront capital cost. Suitability depends on the ownership structure of your development.

payments

Cash Purchase

Own the system outright and keep all the savings.

credit_card

Green Loan

Bank green financing, including schemes that provide a government guarantee on the loan.

handshake

Power Purchase Agreement

ERS installs, owns and maintains the system; you buy the solar electricity at a fixed rate below the TNB tariff (indicative; terms depend on the agreement).

Savings and payback figures are estimates for reference only; actual results depend on the project.

Frequently asked questions

Can solar be included in a new development's design?

Yes. Solar and battery storage work best when planned at master-plan stage, so roof zones, risers, conduits, distribution board space and inverter rooms are reserved before drawings are frozen. ERS engineers can work alongside your M&E and structural consultants to size the systems and plan the grid connection.

Does solar help with Green Building Index (GBI) certification?

Rooftop solar and energy storage can support the energy-performance goals of green rating tools such as the Green Building Index. Ratings are assessed by the relevant rating body, not by ERS, but we can provide technical documentation for the solar and storage systems to support your submission.

What is Solar ATAP and how can buyers of new homes use it?

Solar ATAP is the Malaysian government programme for residential rooftop solar, launched in January 2026 by PETRA. Homes can be prepared with conduits, roof structure and inverter and distribution board space so buyers can add solar later, and ERS manages the Solar ATAP application with SEDA and TNB for each buyer.

Can ERS fund common-area solar with no upfront cost?

Common-area systems can be funded by cash purchase, green loan or a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). Under a PPA, ERS finances, owns and maintains the system and you buy the solar electricity at a fixed rate below the TNB tariff, so there is no upfront capital cost. Suitability depends on the ownership structure of your development and the agreed terms.

Can ERS handle both common areas and individual homes?

Yes. ERS delivers commercial-scale systems for common areas and commercial lots as well as residential installations, so one EPCC partner can cover the whole development. Operations and maintenance is available after handover.

Can battery storage and EV charging be designed into a township?

Yes. ERS can engineer battery storage to support critical common-area loads such as lifts, pumps and security and to help manage peak demand, and EV charging can be designed in with conduits and load capacity planned in the base build. Scope and approvals depend on the development, so please contact our developer team for a review.
