Description | REGULATORY PERIOD 4 IMPLEMENTATION |
Tenaga Nasional Berhad (“TNB”) wishes to inform that the Government of Malaysia (“Government”) has approved the implementation of Regulatory Period 4 (“RP4”) under the Incentive Based Regulation (“IBR”) framework for the period of January 2025 to December 2027. This decision was informed via a letter from Suruhanjaya Tenaga (“ST”) to TNB dated 24 December 2024. The determination process is consistent with methodology and procedures set out under the Regulatory Implementation Guidelines (RIGs) by ST. The allowed Capital Expenditure (“CAPEX”) is RM42.821 billion which consists of RM26.554 billion base CAPEX and RM16.267 billion contingent CAPEX. The total allowed CAPEX for RP4 is set to bring significant economic benefits towards stimulating the nation’s economy and preparing the electricity network to facilitate the nation's energy transition agenda. The allowed Operating Expenditure ("OPEX") is RM20.782 billion which support the planning and execution of necessary operational and maintenance activities for all of TNB’s electrical infrastructures. The regulatory rate of return has been maintained at 7.3% as per Regulatory Period 3. This will enable TNB to make essential investments in the industry, ensuring a continuous and reliable electricity supply to meet the growing demand of customers. Generation costs remain the largest component of the electricity tariff, with gas and coal continue to be the primary fuel sources for electricity generation during this period. Any additional generation costs resulting from higher fuel prices for electricity supply will be passed through via the Imbalance Cost Pass-Through ("ICPT") mechanism. TNB remains neutral in this regard and there will be no impact to the Company's business operations or financial position. The current electricity tariff schedule which has been in place since 2014, will continue to be in effect, with no change in the electricity tariff rate and tariff structure until 30 June 2025. The new tariff schedule with base tariff on 45.62 sen/kWh for RP4 is proposed to be implemented starting 1 July 2025 and any differences from January to June 2025 will be funded through Kumpulan Wang Industri Elektrik ("KWIE"). The Government’s decision to implement RP4 is a testament of the Government’s commitment to the IBR framework, which has been the pillar of sustainability and stability of the electricity supply industry. It provides a transparent regulatory framework, advocates cost efficiencies and ensures financial and operational sustainability of the system and the industry. Through RP4 implementation under IBR, TNB commits to ensure a reliable and continuous supply of electricity to our customers, enhance customer service level and facilitate the nation's energy transition agenda. In addition, TNB remains dedicated in supporting the nation through corporate social responsibility initiatives while ensuring a sustainable and resilient electricity system. This announcement is dated 26 December 2024. |

Kerajaan Menyediakan Subsidi Elektrik Sebanyak RM5.96 bilion bagi tempoh 1 Januari hingga 30 Jun 2025’ dated 20 December 2024.
Because there is no tariff increase from Jan 1 to 30 June 2025
(for 10 years 2014 to 2024 TNB only imposed same tariff with old prices) so by right after one decade Tariff increase is normal as many things have gone up in prices. We can all witness before Covid 19 & after Covid 19 all our foods & drinks have gone up in prices by 20% to 30%
And some even higher
Eg Teh tarik was Rm1.20. Now Rm2.00 (up by 66%
Chicken rice was Rm5.00. Now Rm8.00 (Up by 60%)
5 Kg Cooking Oil was Rm19.90 & Now Rm30.90 (Up 55%)
Both PBA (Penang) & SAJ RANHILL (Johor) have been given greenlight to increase Water Tariff (with some opposing voices) But it came to pass.
Now for Jan 1 to June 30 2025 Tenaga forgo the right to increase Electricity Tariff (So prices remain cheap at status quo)
But there is a COMPENSATION FROM GOVT
See
Kerajaan Menyediakan Subsidi Elektrik Sebanyak RM5.96 bilion bagi tempoh 1 Januari hingga 30 Jun 2025
RM5.96 BILLIONS CASH WILL COME FROM RAKYAT THRU GOVT SUBSIDY TO TNB AS COMPENSATION FOR NOT RAISING ELECTRICITY PRICES
Now think very very very carefully
Almost RM1 BILLIONS PER MONTH (Burden will be borne by the Collective 33 Millions of Malaysians)
And next 10 years?
RM1 BILLIONS X 12 MONTHS X 10 YEARS
= RM120 BILLIONS
THIS AMOUNT CAN ALREADY COVER COST OF KL-SINGAPORE HIGH SPEED RAIL
Now whether TNB raise Tariff or not is Immaterial as it will get its money either through a Rise in Tariff or from GOVT Spending Rakyat monies collected from Income Tax, Cash Received from PETRONAS & Others.
Now let's see how good and favourable are the Terms given to TNB
Rm1 BILLIONS A MONTH
3 MONTHS (Per Quarter) Means RM3 BILLIONS
Let us study TNB Balance Sheet (Refer Bursa)

Latest Results show a profit of Rm1.583 BILLIONS or 27.33 sen profit
(Still at Old tariff)
Now one Qtr of 2025 Govt gives TNB Rm3 BILLIONS
the formula is
Rm3,000,000,000 divides by RM1,584,300,000
then multiply by 27.33
= 51.75 sen (HuHuHu!!)
NOW TNB NO NEED TO WORK CAN GET EXTRA 51.75 SEN (FREE SUBSIDY MONEY)
So all you naysayers happily support TNB by telling Govt to stop raising Electricity Tariif?
It only backfires on your naivity & shallow thinking
More So as FOREIGN INVESTORS WILL BE LAUGHING
Malaysia, by virtue of its Ideal Location with Lots of Water and Low Cost Electricity Have Cause
A MUSHROOMING OF DATA CENTERS LIKE NEVER BEFORE
Let us learn from Nature
In places where there is abundant rainfall & sunlight Vegetation grow profusely
In Tundra where there is little water (lots of ice) with little sunshine only moss and short vegetation can grow
2 to 3 feet height only
In Sub Tropical Climate where there is Mild Sunlight or Water Deciduous Trees are found
These trees shed their leaves in Winter months where there is Less sunlight to conserve energy
In Equatorial Climate like Malaysia we only have EVER GREEN TREES like Palm Oil (Never shed leaves)
And Palm oil needs lots of Sunlight & Water
And in Taman Negara we can see Trees over 150 feet high
So are DATA CENTERS
THEY COME HERE LIKE FOREST GROWN IN TAMAN NEGARA
ALL BECAUSE THEY ARE ASSURED OF ABUNDANT WATER SUPPLY PLUS ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
Now you know Why Ytl Power bought lands from Bplant to do Data Center & Solar Farm
Because Solar Farm can produce Green Solar Energy
Now you also know why Ytl Power wants to take Ranhill private. Lots of Water needed for Data Centers
Now if Tenaga does not raise Electricity Tariff who will build the Electric Grid to connect all the Solar produced?
They must be transported to Data Centers
Why Do Data Centers Want So MUCH ELECTRICITY?
See this
A single data center can consume the equivalent electricity of 50,000 homes. At 200 terawatt hours (TWh) annually, data centers collectively devour more energy than some nation-states.”10 Jan 2024
THERE ARE NOW ALMOST 100 DATA CENTERS IN MALAYSIA. AND MANY MORE BEING BUILT
IF ONE DATA CENTER CAN USE THE EQUIVALENT OF 50,000 HOMES
THEN 5 MILLION HOMES EQUIVALENT FOR 100 DATA CENTERS
Why they want to Enjoy Cheap Electricity at the Expense of Malaysia Tax Payers?
These are Trillion $$$ Companies like NVIDIA, GOOGLE, MICROSOFT, AMAZON & OTHERS
HOW COME THEY GET RICHER AT THE EXPENSE OF MALAYSIAN RAKYAT?
Perish the thought
Let Tenaga do its Rightful Duty
With Warm Regards

Ok let us do a simple projection from revealed figures
Tnb give 51.75 sen per qtr
one year will be
51.75 x 4 qtrs
= Rm2.07
If we assign P/e 10 (or ten times earnings only)
it will be Rm20.70
This prrice does not include what Tnb could earn from operating profits
If added Tnb should be Rm25.00 a share more or less

Happy morning
Yes, it looks like Tnb going to play a Major Role while Petronas recedes.
Petros (Owned by Abang Jo's Sarawak Govt) is taking away 30% of Petronas share of profits in Sarawak
As such Petronas will face a diminishing future
While Tnb is expanding its Vast Business Outreach like never before
For now we still fill out gas at petrol stations but in the future with growth of electric cars we will recharge battery at Charging Stations every where
So Petronas being a fuel supplier will decrease while Tnb"s Role as a Electricity provider will increase
In time past horse drawn carriages were made obsolete at the dawn of the Motor Car
So in the 5th Industrial Revolution Electric cars will replace fossil fuel car
Automatic Self Driving Cars will replace Human Driven cars
Robots will take over 40% of Human jobs eventually
Last time human hard labour is in use. In the future no more.
Ai (Artificial Intelligence) will take over
So human energy will be replaced by electrical energy
One Ai needs the energy of many men combined
All these will cause Data Center to consume even more and more electricity like never before
So to prepare ahead Tnb must upgrade its Power Grid.
Tnb overtaking Petronas is not a far fetched dream
