The government has increased electricity bill protection from 600kWh to 800kWh for domestic users from September to December 31, according to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
This measure aims to mitigate cost-of-living pressures due to haze and hot weather increasing electricity consumption, exempting users up to 800kWh from specific charges.
Anwar thanked Tenaga Nasional Bhd and various ministry bodies for swift implementation and affirmed ongoing monitoring of energy costs to balance affordability and sustainability.
KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 17 — The government has expanded electricity bill protection for domestic users from 600 kilowatt-hours (kWh) to 800kWh a month from September to December 31, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said in a Facebook post today.
He said the measure was an immediate step to ease the cost-of-living pressures faced by households, particularly as haze and hotter weather have driven up electricity consumption in some homes.
Under the expanded protection, domestic users consuming up to 800kWh a month will be exempted from the Automatic Fuel Adjustment (AFA), Retail Charge and Sales and Service Tax (SST).
Anwar also expressed his appreciation to Tenaga Nasional Bhd, the Energy Transition and Water Transformation Ministry (Petra) and the Energy Commission for enabling the measure to be implemented quickly.
He said the recent haze and warmer weather had contributed to increased electricity consumption among some households, causing their monthly usage to exceed 600kWh and resulting in unusually higher bills.
“The Madani Government will continue to closely monitor developments in fuel costs and current energy market conditions to ensure that any decisions related to electricity tariffs take into account the balance between affordability and the people’s cost of living, electricity supply security and the sustainability of the national energy sector,” he said.

据首相拿督斯里安华·易卜拉欣称,政府已将9月至12月31日期间家庭用户的电费保护额度从600千瓦时提高到800千瓦时。
该措施旨在缓解因雾霾和高温天气导致用电量增加而带来的生活成本压力,免除用电量不超过 800kWh 的用户的特定费用。
安华感谢国家能源公司和各部委机构迅速落实相关措施,并重申将继续监测能源成本,以平衡可负担性和可持续性。
吉隆坡,9月17日讯——首相拿督斯里安华·易卜拉欣今天在脸书上发帖称,政府已将家庭用户的电费保护范围从每月600千瓦时(kWh)扩大到800千瓦时,有效期从9月到12月31日。
他表示,这项措施是立即缓解家庭面临的生活成本压力的举措,尤其是在雾霾和高温天气推高了一些家庭用电量的情况下。
在扩大保护措施下,每月用电量不超过 800kWh 的家庭用户将免缴自动燃料调整费 (AFA)、零售费和销售及服务税 (SST)。
