Recent advances of feed-in tariff in Malaysia

Current state and future prospects of plastic waste as source of fuel: A review

“…In order to address the problem of depleting fossil fuel, concerted efforts have been made to develop affordable renewable energy, including solar energy, hydropower, geothermal, wind and so forth. Such efforts are recognized by the government of different countries and incentives were offered to the developers in the form of feed-in tariffs [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Meanwhile, the potentials of converting plastic waste to fuel is yet to be recognized, although such potential had been discussed in a number of reviews, as summarized in Table 2.…”

Feed‐in‐tariffs and the politics of renewable energy in Indonesia and the Philippines

“…In China, the use of FITs led to an increase in installed wind capacity from 41.7 MW in 2001 to 17,630.9 MW in 2011 (Ming, Ximei, Na, & Song, ). In Southeast Asia, Thailand successfully built a renewable energy sector through the use of FITs (Tongsopit & Greacen, ), and in Malaysia, solar is expected to become the country's main source of energy by 2050 as a result of FITs (Wong, Ngadia, Abdullah, & Inuwac, ).…”

On the Use of Market-Based Instruments to Reduce Air Pollution in Asia

“…In Malaysia, electricity distributors are obliged to purchase renewable energy generated by feed-in tariff-approved holders at the feed-in tariff rate for a specified period of time. The scheme is operated by the Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA), which adopts the regularly applied Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) metric to ensure that tariffs reflect the true investment and operational cost of the technology used [25]. In 2011, the Notice on Improving the Pricing Policy for Grids' Purchase of Solar Photovoltaic Power was issued, which ushered in China's first feed-in tariff policy for solar power.…”
