Kuala Lumpur, 2 July 2025 – Malaysia’s fintech and renewable energy landscapes are gaining fresh momentum. Fintech player AsiaFIN Technologies has expanded its regional footprint, while the government reassures residential solar power users that NEM 2.0 and NEM 3.0 offset benefits will remain intact despite the new electricity tariff hike.


AsiaFIN’s INReport E-Invoice Solution Now Supports 100+ Companies

AsiaFIN Technologies has revealed a significant milestone for its flagship fintech product, INReport, a real-time e-invoicing solution designed to streamline compliance, reporting, and digital transactions.

As of July 2025, INReport is now used by more than 100 companies across Asia, including major financial institutions and banks. The platform enables automated invoice submission and regulatory reporting in line with digital taxation initiatives, such as Malaysia’s LHDN e-invoicing mandate.

“The adoption of INReport across top-tier banks and corporations signals strong regional demand for secure, scalable digital compliance tools,” said a company spokesperson.

This expansion aligns with Malaysia’s efforts to become a fintech hub in Southeast Asia, promoting cross-border e-invoicing adoption among ASEAN nations and enhancing real-time financial transparency.


Solar Users Under NEM 2.0 & 3.0 to Keep Offset Benefits Despite Tariff Hikes

In parallel, good news arrives for home solar panel users under Malaysia’s Net Energy Metering (NEM) programs. The government has confirmed that users enrolled under NEM 2.0 and NEM 3.0 schemes will retain their existing energy offset privileges, despite the latest electricity tariff adjustments that came into effect on July 1, 2025.

This means households that generate excess electricity from solar panels and export it to the grid will continue to enjoy bill credits or energy offsets, protecting their return on investment in renewable energy systems.

“The continuation of offset benefits under NEM 2.0 and 3.0 reflects our commitment to encouraging clean energy adoption,” stated an official from the Energy Commission.

This move is seen as essential to maintaining trust in Malaysia’s renewable energy policy and decarbonization efforts, especially amid rising utility costs.


Why This Matters

  • Fintech Growth: AsiaFIN’s success highlights the rapid digitization of finance and compliance systems in Asia.
  • Energy Security: Protecting NEM users ensures public confidence in Malaysia’s solar energy transition.
  • Policy Alignment: Both developments support Malaysia’s goals under its National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR) and Digital Economy Blueprint.
