The Energy Commission (ST) stated that the electricity tariff adjustment, implemented through the Imbalance Cost Pass-Through (ICPT) mechanism for the period of 1 January to 30 June 2024, will not impact 85% or seven million domestic consumers in Peninsular Malaysia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is due to the government’s decision to maintain a 2 sen\/kilowatt-hour (kWh) rebate for users with a monthly electricity consumption of 600kWh and below, according to Bernama<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For consumers exceeding 600kWh but not surpassing 1,500kWh per month, no surcharge will be applied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, those with a monthly consumption exceeding 1,500kWh will continue to face a surcharge of 10 sen\/kWh. ST stated that 99% or 8.2 million domestic consumers will still receive government subsidies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ICPT, operating under the Incentive-Based Regulation (IBR), allows adjustments to fuel costs every six months based on global fuel price fluctuations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ST clarified that non-domestic users in certain categories, including commercial and industrial low-voltage tariffs, specific agricultural tariffs, and water and sanitation operators, will not see an increase in electricity tariffs, with the ICPT surcharge maintained at 3.7 sen\/kWh. Other non-domestic consumers will retain a surcharge of 17 sen\/kWh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ST highlighted that the government allocated RM1.9 billion in subsidies across all consumer categories to mitigate the impact of the ICPT surcharge during the implementation period. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consumers are advised to check their monthly electricity bills for usage and subsidies. For estimating future costs, ST recommends using the electricity tariff calculator on the website https:\/\/myelectricitybill.my<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The electricity tariff adjustment under the ICPT mechanism applies to all consumers in Peninsular Malaysia, excluding those at the Kulim Hi-Tech Park in Kedah.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The government will maintain the rebate of 2 sen\/kilowatt-hour(kWh) for users with a monthly electricity consumption of 600kWh and below.\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":24707,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_appearance_grid":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[6144,6143,6147,6146,6145,1158],"doge-sponsors":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n85% Domestic Users Will Not Be Affected By The 2024 Electricity Tariff Adjustment -
