Astern Technologies Sdn Bhd has officially launched AI BESS 360, Malaysia’s first AI-enabled, all-in-one home energy system that combines solar power, hybrid inverters, battery storage, and intelligent energy management into a single seamless solution.
The system promises homeowners a smarter, greener, and more cost-efficient way to manage electricity — and for electric vehicle (EV) owners, it could be a game changer.
“At Astern, we believe the future of energy lies in empowerment,” said Leng Rong Chen, Managing Director of Astern Technologies Sdn Bhd. “In line with Malaysia’s National Energy Transition Roadmap (N.E.T.R.), AI BESS 360 represents our commitment to make energy independence accessible, intelligent, and sustainable for every household.”
Smarter Energy for Homes and EVs
The AI BESS 360 integrates high-efficiency solar panels, hybrid inverters, and a battery energy storage system (BESS) managed by an AI-powered energy interface. This setup allows the system to predict and optimise energy use, automatically switching between solar energy, the electricity grid, and stored battery power for maximum savings.
For EV owners, the benefits are immediate and practical:
- Use daytime solar to charge at night. Rather than needing to plug in while the sun is shining, the AI BESS 360 stores excess daytime solar generation in the battery so you can charge your EV after you arrive home in the evening or overnight — when you actually need it.
- Smart charging that prioritises stored green energy. The AI management schedules EV charging to draw from the battery (and solar when available) to minimise grid consumption and avoid costly peak-tariff periods.
- Backup & reliability. The integrated battery provides emergency power so EV charging and essential home systems can continue during blackouts.
- Visibility and control. Real-time energy data lets owners track how much of their vehicle’s charging comes from solar vs grid, helping them maximise savings and lower their carbon footprint.
Essentially, AI BESS 360 turns your home into a mini energy ecosystem — capable of powering daily life and mobility, independently from fluctuating grid costs.
Early Bird Offers for Malaysian Households
Astern Technologies has also announced introductory pricing across multiple system capacities:
| System Capacity | Launch Price |
|---|---|
| 6.2 kWp | RM21,800 |
| 8.68 kWp | RM23,200 |
| 16.12 kWp | RM41,900 |
| 19.84 kWp | RM45,500 |
Homeowners can also enhance their system package with a 14.3 kWh AI BESS solar battery, originally RM15,000, now available at RM7,400 (battery) for early adopters (first 100 customers), along with a RM2,000 rebate (residential package) and free lifetime solar insurance. According to Astern, the battery lifespan is good for up to 16 years.
The AI BESS 360 is available immediately nationwide through Astern’s network of authorised partners who are happy to answer your queries. For more information, visit https://astern-tech.com/
With Malaysia pushing toward carbon neutrality by 2050, innovations like AI BESS 360 mark a critical step in decentralising energy and empowering consumers to control their consumption — while making EV ownership even more practical and affordable.
With a BESS, your house isn’t just smart — it can be self-sustaining. Now you have a system that lets your roof pay the bills and charge your car.
