摘要

•Grid-connected PV for Malaysian residential sector has been analyzed using HOMER.•Component costs, feed-in tariffs, and carbon taxes affect optimal system types.•Grid-connected PV projects are feasible for low PV array costs ($ 1120/kW or lower).•For higher PV array and inverter costs, feed-in tariffs should be implemented.•Combining feed-in tariffs with carbon taxes are effective for further lowering NPCs.
