Project details

The Challenge:

As a heavy-use industrial facility, KH Tyre faced a few challenges in adopting
solar energy, including:

  • Ensuring structural integrity of the large roof area before installation
  • Coordinating with ongoing factory operations to avoid production downtime
  • Managing electrical load balancing across multiple three-phase connections
  • Achieving the highest energy yield within TNB’s technical limits under NEM
  • The goal was to implement a high-capacity system that would deliver maximum
    savings without disrupting daily business operations.

Our Solutions:

Solar Wise Energy conducted a comprehensive site survey, load analysis, and
structural assessment before design.

The system was then custom-engineered to fit KH Tyre’s wide-span metal
roofing, ensuring optimal panel orientation and inverter configuration for
consistent power output.

Key implementation steps:

  • Reinforced mounting design to match the roof’s structural strength
  • Zonal installation plan to allow factory operations to continue safely
  • High-efficiency Tier 1 solar panels and industrial-grade inverters for
    maximum reliability
  • Energy monitoring system installed for real-time performance tracking
  • Our project team worked closely with TNB and SEDA Malaysia to ensure all NEM
    compliance, safety, and commissioning requirements were met efficiently.

Completion Date: December 2024
