HOW HAG SOLAR HELPS BUSINESSES CUT ENERGY COSTS WITH SOLAR POWER

A SMARTER WAY TO SAVE FOR SABAH BUSINESSES
Across Sabah, many businesses, from factories to retail stores-operate mostly during daylight hours. That means your peak energy usage happens when the sun is shining. By installing a solar power system, you can generate clean, renewable electricity during your busiest hours and reduce how much you draw from the grid.

At HAG Solar, we help businesses take advantage of this perfect match between daylight operation and solar generation-turning what used to be an expense into long-term savings.

1. Lower Monthly Electricity Bills - When your business consumes power during the day, solar energy can directly offset a large portion of that usage.
   1. Self-consumption model: Under Sabah’s SELCO-PV program, businesses generate power for on-site use, meaning the energy you produce is used immediately-reducing imported electricity from the grid.
   2. Every kilowatt-hour generated by your solar panels is one less you pay to your utility.
   3. Depending on system size and load, businesses typically save 20%–40% on monthly electricity bills.

This saving goes straight to your bottom line, improving cash flow and overall profitability.

2. Attractive Return on Investment (ROI) - Installing solar is not just about saving electricity-it’s a strategic investment.
   1. With today’s equipment costs and technology efficiency, most commercial systems in Sabah achieve payback within 4–7 years, while solar panels, "Linear Power" can last over 25 years.
   2. That means decades of free energy after your system pays for itself.
   3. Solar reduces your exposure to future tariff increases-providing predictable energy costs over the long term.

HAG Solar designs each system to maximize your self-consumption ratio, ensuring every ringgit you invest delivers optimal return.

3. Perfect Match for Daytime Operations - Most commercial and industrial businesses-factories, workshops, retail outlets, F&B outlets-operate from morning till evening.
   1. This operating pattern aligns naturally with solar power generation.
   2. The more your solar output overlaps with your daily usage, the greater your savings.
   3. No expensive batteries are required-your building effectively consumes solar as it’s produced.

In short, your business becomes its own power producer during working hours.

4. Tax Incentives & Green Financing - Sabah businesses can take advantage of several Malaysian government schemes that make going solar even more attractive:
   1. Green Investment Tax Allowance (GITA) - Companies investing in solar systems may qualify for tax allowances on capital expenditure, helping reduce taxable income. 
   2. Capital Allowance (CA) - Even if you do not apply for GITA, solar equipment such as PV panels, inverters, and mounting structures typically qualify for standard capital allowance under Malaysia’s Income Tax Act as “plant and machinery.”
   3. You can estimate Initial Allowance (IA) of 20% and Annual Allowance (AA) of 14% - effectively spreading your investment cost as deductible expenses over several years. This is especially useful for smaller commercial systems that may not go through GITA certification but still want tax relief.

These incentives, combined with energy savings, significantly shorten your payback period and boost your ROI.

5. Compliance & Simplicity with HAG Solar - Navigating Sabah’s regulations can feel complex, but HAG Solar makes it simple:
   1. We ensure your project follows ECoS SELCO-PV guidelines, Sabah Renewable Energy Rules 2024.
   2. Our engineers handle design, submission, and installation the way to testing and commissioning.
   3. You focus on your business; we handle the technical and compliance side.

6. Future-Proof Your Business - Solar is more than an energy solution. It’s a long-term sustainability strategy. 
   1. Lower carbon footprint and positive ESG reporting help attract investors and eco-conscious clients.
   2. Resilience: Reduces dependence on grid fluctuations or outages.
   3. Businesses that adopt solar today position themselves ahead of regulatory changes and rising energy costs tomorrow.
