Therefore, PV technology is regarded in Malaysia as the major source of RE generation to sustain an increasing energy demand in years to come. While PV is heavily affected by climate and weather changes, this causes an inconsistency in energy generation .
On a tropical climate, an estimated solar irradiance of 4000–5000 W/m2 were recorded annually in Malaysia . Hence, a single PV could generate electricity for 4 to 8 h on average in a day. As mini hydro and biomass require larger deployment costs and space in a larger-scale generation, this hinders the progression of both RES for now.
