NUR Rebate 2026: Get RM200 Off Your Inverter Air Conditioner — Don't Miss Out

What Is the NUR Rebate Campaign?

The Nikmat Untuk Rakyat (NUR) programme is a government initiative under the Ministry of Energy Transition and Water Transformation (PETRA), managed by SEDA Malaysia (Sustainable Energy Development Authority). It was introduced to encourage Malaysian households to replace old, energy-guzzling appliances with modern, energy-efficient alternatives.

Under NUR:DOMESTIK 2026, eligible households can claim RM200 off when purchasing a new inverter air conditioner bearing a 4-star or 5-star energy efficiency label from the Energy Commission (ST) or the Energy Commission of Sabah (ECoS). The rebate is applied as an instant e-discount at point of purchase through registered retailers — no waiting, no claiming portal.

Why You Need to Act Fast — Seriously

Here's the thing about the NUR campaign: it comes fast, and it goes even faster.

Previous NUR campaigns have seen quotas exhausted within weeks, sometimes even days of opening. The government has allocated exactly RM32 million for this round, and when it's gone, it's gone until the next programme cycle — which could be months away, or may not happen at all.

If you've been sitting on the fence about upgrading your aircond, this is your window. Waiting means losing the RM200, and you'll still need a new unit eventually anyway.

Who Is Eligible for the RM200 Rebate?

• Malaysian citizens
• Registered domestic electricity account holders (TNB, SESB, or SEB accounts)
• Purchasing through an authorised NUR retailer
• Each electricity account is eligible for ONE (1) e-Rebate per appliance type

Note: The rebate applies to residential purchases only. Commercial and industrial users fall under the separate NUR:CHILLER programme.

Which Air Conditioners Qualify for the Rebate?

To qualify, your air conditioner must carry a 4-star or 5-star energy efficiency label from the Energy Commission. In practice, this means inverter air conditioners — conventional non-inverter models typically do not reach the 4-star threshold.

Popular qualifying brands include Panasonic, Hisense, Daikin, and Midea — as long as the specific model appears on SEDA Malaysia's approved list. Always confirm the model is registered before purchasing.

How to Claim Your RM200 NUR Rebate — Step by Step

1. Choose a qualifying inverter aircond with a 4-star or 5-star energy label
2. Purchase from a registered NUR retailer like Ban Leng Air Conditioning
3. Provide your domestic electricity account number for verification
4. RM200 is deducted instantly at the point of sale — no claiming portal needed

The e-Rebate is a direct price deduction, so you pay RM200 less upfront — not a cashback you wait for later.

How Much Can You Actually Save with an Inverter AC?

The RM200 rebate is the immediate win — but the long-term electricity savings are even bigger. Inverter air conditioners use 30–50% less electricity compared to conventional non-inverter units, by automatically adjusting compressor speed rather than cycling on and off at full power.

Over five years, the NUR 2026 programme is projected to save Malaysia 552.25 GWh of electricity, equivalent to approximately RM250.72 million in electricity bill savings across all participating households (SEDA Malaysia, 2026). At an individual level, switching to a 5-star inverter aircond can reduce your monthly electricity bill by RM30–RM80 depending on usage.
