Billing, Tariff and Settlement

RED’s Declared Monthly Energy Output = 1,000 MWh, RED’s Actual Monthly Energy Output = 1,000 MWh, GC’s Consumption = 1,200 MWh, Balance consumption from TNB = 200 MWh. Given the GC has a Peak tariff of RM 0.365/kWh and an off-peak tariff of RM 0.224/kWh. Which tariff will TNB charge the GC for the 200 MWh?

Energy charge for the balance consumption of 200 MWh will be based on metered consumption of 1,200 MWh on the peak and off-peak bucket. Consumption on the peak bucket will be offset first, followed by the off-peak bucket.

Sample calculation as below:

Metered consumption:
Peak bucket: 500 MWh
Off-peak bucket: 700 MWh

Consumption from RED (1,000 MWh): 500 MWh (Peak bucket) + 500 MWh (Off-peak bucket)

Consumption from TNB: 200 MWh (Remaining on off-peak bucket)

Hence, the energy charge from TNB of 200 MWh will be based on the off-peak rate (RM0.224/kWh).

Will there be MD be chargeable to Green Consumer? Will there be MD be chargeable to Green Consumer? Section 6.11 of the CRESS Guidelines outlines that "The EUC shall carry out the billing process and issue the relevant bill to the Green Consumer based on meter readings at both RED (MRED) and Green Consumer (MGC) premises. The meter reading at RED and Green Consumer premises shall be coordinated in such a way that the readings reflect the supply and consumption of electricity that occur within the same time during the Billing Period. The meter reading and billing activities shall be carried out on a monthly basis. RED and Green Consumer shall also grant EUC and Single Buyer access for MRED and MGC." i. Is the Settlement Period equal to the Billing Period? (ie. Can power delivered by the RED to TNB at 12 noon be consumed by a Green Consumer at 3 pm that day, or another later time during a day within that month's Billing Period?) ii. If the Settlement Period does not equal the Billing Period, what settlement period is planned to be used?
