CNCS RE Scheme

CARBON NEUTRAL COMMERCIAL SECTOR (CNCS) RENEWABLE ENERGY (RE) SCHEME

The strategy to increase the shares of renewable energy in the national electricity generation mix is under implementation, with several solar photovoltaic projects in the categories Small-Scale Distributed Generation (SSDG), Medium-Scale Distributed Generation (MSDG) and Utility-Scale being developed.

Within the revisited strategy, in line with Government’s reset objectives to accelerate renewable energy development to reach the target of 60% by 2035, a revamped version of the MSDG Scheme has been conceptualized to formulate this new Scheme.

The new Scheme named ‘CARBON NEUTRAL COMMERCIAL SECTOR (CNCS) RENEWABLE ENERGY (RE) SCHEME’ will be offered on a pilot basis to major electricity Consumers in the Commercial Sector. The launching of the CNCS RE Scheme was officialized by Government at its Cabinet Meeting of 23 January 2026.

For the current phase of the CNCS RE Scheme, the CEB will consider applications for renewable energy (RE) projects (solar only) from Customers in the Commercial Category registered under the Tariff Codes 225 and 225A.
