TNB ToU scheme helps Malaysians save on electricity bills
The ToU scheme is available for customers with smart meters, Current Transformer (CT) Operated Meters, or Remote Meter Reading (RMR) systems. By scheduling high-energy activities like laundry, air conditioning, or electric vehicle charging during off-peak periods, consumers can lower their monthly bills.
'With the option to schedule electricity usage during cheaper off-peak hours, consumers can now proactively reduce their monthly bills without compromising comfort,' said TNB.
The revised ToU scheme includes extended off-peak periods—all day on weekends and from 10 pm to 2 pm on weekdays. Peak hours are from 2 pm to 10 pm, Monday to Friday.
For example, off-peak rates for usage below 1,500 kWh are set at 24.43 sen/kWh, while peak rates are 28.52 sen/kWh for ToU users, compared to 27.03 sen/kWh for standard domestic consumers.
To help estimate savings, TNB provides an online Electricity Bill Calculator on the myTNB portal. Consumers can compare tariffs before switching.
Applications for the ToU scheme open on July 1, 2025, via email (tnbtou@tnb.com.my) or at Kedai Tenaga outlets. Online applications will be available from August 1, 2025.

Decades-long wait ends as Melaka hands over 47 approval letter for railway reserve land
ALOR GAJAH: After more than 30 years, the issue involving railway reserve land in Pengkalan here has been resolved, with the Melaka government handing over 47 approval letters for state land application, said Chief Minister Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh. He said the handover ceremony reflected the state government's concern in understanding the community's needs and ensuring that every policy and development project delivers a positive impact on the people's lives. "A total of 45 applications involved the Pengkalan railway reserve land that had been delayed for three decades, and two plots for temples. "Also approved was Tenaga Nasional Bhd's (TNB) application to place a substation on Plot 1, Mukim Kelemak, Alor Gajah district, which will provide electricity to residential, commercial, hospital, and government office areas, benefiting more than 3,050 users," he said today. He said this at the handover of the approval letters in conjunction with the Wakil Rakyat Untuk Rakyat (WRUR) programme for the Rembia state constituency, which was also attended by the coordinator for the constituency, Datuk Fairul Nizam Roslan. He said this year, 96 state land applications have been approved in the district, followed by the issuance of Notice 5A by the land administrator. Notice 5A is an official document informing applicants of the fees due, including document preparation and registration costs, that they must pay to obtain the land titles. "It is on this land that new homes will be built, gardens will be filled with flowers, children will run and play, and families will gather every weekend. "Its value is not merely measured in square feet, but in the space to build a life and pass down a legacy of peace to future generations," he said. He said the state government imposes land premiums below market rates, ranging between RM9,000 and RM25,000, depending on the land size, compared to hundreds of thousands of ringgit. "A special five per cent discount is offered to Notice 5A recipients who settle payment within three months, subject to the condition that no extension requests or appeals for premium reduction are made," he added. – Bernama
