How to Check If Your Home Can Handle an EV Charger

Whether you want to check your monthly electricity bill or explore solar energy, the myTNB portal is your go-to hub for everything related to your account .

Handling your account services

The myTNB self-service portal makes it easy to manage your electricity account. You can use it to apply for a new power supply, change the name on your account, or close an account entirely .

If you have used TNB's e-Services or e-Application platforms before, you don't need to sign up again—just use your existing login details . If you run into any trouble, like missing account info or delayed payment updates, you can reach out to the TNB CareLine at 1300 88 5454 .

Checking your home energy needs

Thinking of installing an EV home charger? First, check your home's electricity capacity. While you don't need direct approval from TNB to install the charger, you must make sure your current supply—whether it's single-phase or three-phase—can handle the extra load .

If you need to upgrade from single-phase to three-phase, you can apply for this directly on the official website . Always hire a licensed wireman or an electrical contractor registered with the Energy Commission to make sure your home is safe and ready for the upgrade .

Exploring the Solar ATAP programme

If you're interested in going green, the Solar ATAP programme (which started on 1 January 2026) is the successor to the old Net Energy Metering scheme .

This programme lets you generate your own electricity. If you produce more than you use, you can export the extra energy back to the grid and earn credits to lower your monthly bill . If you're keen to sign up, you'll need to hire a Registered Photovoltaic Service Provider to help you with the application through the portal .

A bit of background

The current self-service portal is the result of a long-term effort to combine all of TNB's online services and applications into one place, a process that first began back in 2016 .
