About Solaric
Solaric was an offshoot of our previous business which was providing back up power solutions to the
US Federal Government, one of our more notable projects was the battery backup system for the
Kennedy Space station data center in Florida. We first started experimenting with Solar PV in early
2010 but it was too expensive to do it without subsides.

History
Solaric was an offshoot of our previous business which was providing back up power solutions to the US Federal Government, one of our more notable projects was the battery backup system for the Kennedy Space station data center in
Florida. We first started experimenting with Solar PV early 2010 but it was too expensive to do it without subsidies. In the past 3 years, the price of Solar and improvements of technologies have allowed Solar, in general, to be cost
competitive against Utility power.
We proved that the price of solar power makes economic sense by decimating our own electric bill with an aggressive amount of Grid connected solar power back in 2013 and worked with MERALCO to get the pioneer systems running
and done to world standards.Friends and close associates wanted our Grid tie system, so we did several installs, then Typhoon Yolanda happened. We heard horror stories of infants dying because of black outed incubators and
nebulizers. Our startup business was called to duty, all our inventory reallocated to relief efforts with no expectation of getting paid. We were tasked to energize schools, churches, homes, and relief centers in places such as Tacloban and
Malapascua with no grid, no diesel, and no government support. We delivered power when others would not or could not, and in the worst possible operating conditions. After coming back and installing truck loads of Off grid power
solutions that were used by thousands of Yolanda survivors, we came back tempered and hardened but our goal is the same - to provide COST EFFECTIVE power with free and clean renewable energy to be enjoyed by future generations.
Currently we are found in rooftops all over Luzon Visayas and Mindanao with more than hundreds of happy clients and installations. Megawatts of renewable energy power are now available for the common housewife, business owner or
factory owner to utilize.
We are now a recognized leader in rooftop PV installations around the Philippines by sheer number of installations, and pioneered Meralco's "Peak/ Off Peak + Net Metering" program.

Question: Why do you charge for Solar 101?
Answer: Solar 101 There are significant costs in hosting a Solar 101
event, trainer salaries, catered food, venue rentals, text books etc, in as
much as we want to make it free, economic constraints prevent us from
doing so. More than P4M was spent in putting up the Solaric training
center and its curriculumn and training level is industry standard for solar
basics. The Solar 101 is a requirement for would be dealers, sales agents
to represent Solaric in solar sales and marketing transactions, there is
also a significant number of end users who attend the Solar 101 because
they want to know the full details on how Solar installations are done in the
Philippines, spot substandard installations and be eligible to the discount
vouchers at the end of the seminar.
Question: Hi Solaric PH, how much will it cost for 2X 1hp aircon, 8cu ft
auto defrost ref and total of 100watts total of LED house lighting?
Question: I saw some solar panels in Quaipo can I buy that and have you
install it.
Question: Why do you sell products from China, are they any good?
Question: Why do I have to tell you what I run during the day and my
monthly bill to get a quote?
Question: I only have budget to put 1.5kW solar but eventually would want
3kwP system, can I upgrade when I have more budget?
Question: How net metering will help me get the most from my solar
investment?
Question: How do I size the number of panels to the grid tie inverter?

Capitalizing from years of installing solar systems in the Philippines, Solaric has developed an industry renowned weekend course on Solar Energy called Solar 101. It is a semi technical course that allows a lay person or engineer to understand the practical
aspects of solar systems and how it can economically bring down electricity bills, replace diesel generation and most importantly teach the average consumer or policy maker on what type of solar system to install in a no nonsense non biased manner. From
Housewives, business owners, Energy managers, and even other solar companies have made this a very popular course over the past 3 years as every chapter and page of content of this class is based on practical or actual experiences in solar projects in
the Philippines. It is uncommon for a company to divulge trade secrets in solar installation but our view is that quality fundamentals and techniques are needed to make renewable energy grow in sunny Philippines.
Please note this 1 day seminar does not teach you how to install. If you would like to get your hands dirty and learn how to do basic solar planning, design, and installation – then we would highly recommend our SOLAR 202 WORKSHOP which is held the

All over the world, the race for clean, safe, renewable energy is on.
In the Philippines, the Renewable Energy (RE) Act of 2008 has led to the development of more energy resources such as a solar
panels priced in the Philippines. The law encourages the Philippines to increase energy sustainability and reduce its dependence
on fossil fuels. The goal is to shift to using clean and renewable energy. However, ten years later, we are still lagging far behind
from the rest of the world.
Figures on renewables
As renewable experts examined the globe in year 2017, they detected that renewable energy investment growth did not
matriculate from Europe or North America. Surprisingly, the renewable energy leaders originated from developing nations, such as
China, Brazil, Egypt, United Arab Emirates, and Argentina. Reports indicate China as the top of the list, with an increase in its
investment from 17% to 36% globally, which equates to a whooping $126.6 Billion in renewable investment. China is, after all, the
backyard to half of the world’s solar energy capacity.
Is it trending?
Well, Australia also launched a plan for its public housing pool, which involved the installation of solar panels and batteries in
50,000 homes within four years.
Solar panel prices in the Philippines and in other countries have dropped by 90% in the last decade and 50% in the last three
years. With the rates of solar systems at an all-time low, homeowners are now making that household switch to solar, along with
establishments such as schools, factories, malls, farms, and more. What makes the solar switch even better is the fact that
homeowners can benefit from the net metering program, wherein they are credited for their excess power.
With solar power as the cheapest source of renewable energy, it only makes sense to harness this sunshine and turn on the sun –
especially with today’s low-cost solar panels and affordable solar power for homes. The investment is a win-win, for homeowners
and entrepreneurs alike.

season or the rainy season, on the other hand, happens from June to November; when it
rains almost non-stop and about 20 typhoons enter the country.
However, the sun never fails to shine on the Filipinos. This is why solar panels in the
Philippines are a great investment. The tropical climate allows for a lot of sunlight, which
automatically means that there will never be a want for a source of solar power. This has
its perks – not only will electricity bills drop, but solar power adapters can even sell the
power they generate, provided they have a surplus.
As mentioned in the earlier part of this article, solar panels convert sunlight into usable
electricity. These panels consist individual solar cells that are composed of different
layers: the phosphorous, silicon, and boron. The phosphorous layer provides the negative
charge, while the boron layer provides the positive charge.
Most likely, the solar panels in the Philippines work in accord to the photovoltaic effect. It
was founded by Edmond Becquerel in 1839. He experimented on damp cells, wherein he
found out that the voltage of the said cell increased when exposed to the sunlight.
The process in which the panels absorb the photons joining both the p-type and the n-
type semiconductors and forms an electric field is called the photovoltaic effect. As a
result, the negatively charged subatomic particles – also called electrons – are released
from their atomic orbits and into the electric current – thereby, pulling them to move in one
direction along with the positively charged subatomic particles, which moves to the
opposite side.
In residential infrastructures such as homes, the roof area can provide more than enough
room for the necessary solar panel energy that is needed to supply the electric
consumption of the residents. More so, it is capable of storing enough power supply for
electricity usage during night time from the unused supply during the day.
Currently, a number of homeowners have already shifted to net metering programs, which
promotes the usage of alternative energy sources such as the wind, biomass, and of
course, solar. Furthermore, it allows the owners to sell the excess energy supply, as
produced by their panels, to their distribution utility (DU), which for the case of many is the
Meralco in the Philippines.
This entire process is very much practical, given that not all Philippine solar panel
generator owners can consume the energy produced by the panels – eventually allowing
them to sell their surplus and contribute to the overall distribution of utilities to extend the
energy supply.
● Panels
The panels make the most crucial and important part of the solar panel system,
hence, it is the most expensive among all parts. Usually, they’re the most
familiarized part of the system, and are often installed outside the home, most likely
on the roof area for direct access to the sunlight.
These panels are rated in watts. This is to measure the maximum energy produced
by the solar panel under particular circumstances. It may be between 10 to 300
watts, but the common configuration should be by 100 watts.
● Mounting racks
To put the solar panels in place, one would need the use of mounting racks. There
are three places people usually mount their Philippine solar panels; these are the
following:
a. On the roof area – the most common way for residential installations.
They’re efficient given that sunlight is easier to access, more so, it doesn’t
ruin the look of your home. The only downside in installing them on the roof
is that when its height is too high, then maintaining and repairing the system
can be a problem.
b. On the ground – mounting your solar panels on the ground itself can be
super accessible. However, there is a drawback especially if the area is
prone to flooding (or snow for other countries). Also, it won’t help to know
that there might be only a limited area to allocate the panels.
c. On a pole – some solar panel owners prefer placing their panels on a pole
for free standing setup, allowing them to adjust the height of the pole for easy
access during maintenance.
Regardless of where the solar panels are installed, it’s important to make sure that
the mounts are able to catch up with the movements of the sun – given that its
angle changes over the year.
● DC-to-AC inverters
Generally, inverters convert the direct current (DC) power from the batteries into
alternating current (AC) that standard home electronics and appliances use to
function. They can be off-grid, straight grid-tied, grid-capable, or stand-alone
inverters.
a. Off-grid type – these inverters need batteries for storage purposes.
b. Straight grid-tied type – unlike off-grid inverters, this type does not need
batteries to work.
c. Grid-capable type – this type is a combination of the first two inverters, it
can work with or without batteries; though, it depends on its system design.
● Disconnecting switch
The disconnecting switch allows the owners to turn the solar power system off –
under circumstances that are deemed important and requires safety precaution.
Most importantly, the switch should be implemented within the owner’s reach for
easy access.
● Fuse box and wiring connections
In order to connect all the main components of the solar power system; cables,
conduit, connectors, and fuse box are needed. These should be properly
connected to secure the system and of course, to ensure its performance efficiency.
● Power, utility, and kilowatt meter
These meter equipment help measure the amount of energy used and maintain an
accurate metric system in measuring the energy that the owner wants to sell to the
distribution utility company.
● Backup power generator
For solar power systems that are not connected to the utility grid, it is
recommended to keep a backup power generator. This is in support to occasions,
when the energy produced by the panels is low and cannot support the electricity
load.
This home solar power system allows owners to take the best out of both worlds,
given that the system is connected to the conventional electric utility grid.
Technically, what happens in this type of system is, whenever the system provides
more power than the electricity that is being consumed, the excess power can be
sold directly to the distribution utility company, which is also known as the net
metering program.
On the other hand, if the power that the system is producing is not sufficient to the
needs of the home, then the owners can always switch back to the utility grid.
2. Grid inter-tied solar power system with battery support
This type of home solar power system is the premium version of the first type.
Aside from the utility grid, it also includes batteries to back up the system. This
mainly protects the system from power insufficiency by charging the batteries with
the excess power that the panels produce, thereby storing electricity for emergency
purposes.
3. Off-grid solar power system
This type of home solar power system is disconnected from the utility grid, primarily
because the place is out of coverage. In this case, such system is often added with
batteries or power generators to back it up in case of shortfalls.

The Power of the Sun: The Inception, Evolution, and Impact of Solar Panel
Installation in the Philippines
Since the dawn of Industrialization, there have been various inventions that have made significant contributions to the world of modern man. As early as the late
19th century to the early 20th century, they have been introduced to inventions such as the solar panels and its installation in the Philippines, the steam engine,
the telephone, the locomotive, the automobile, various firearms, and most notably, the light bulb. The latter invention has helped change the course of livelihood
due to the one thing that serves as the foundation for modern innovation: electricity.
Electricity has helped power the world known by many. It serves as a catalyst for anything that has to do with people’s basic needs and convenience. However,

nowadays, it comes at a high cost. Since the dawn of the new decade, electricity costs have risen to high prices. With a vast number of electronics available for
use, mass consumption of power is almost unavoidable. Electricity has powered people’s lives to the point of it being a part of any household and industry, which
in turn can cause massive increases in electricity costs worldwide. Not only that, electricity has helped in the progression of machineries across the world, which
unfortunately is affecting the environment negatively. This matter has then been the subject of debate for a number of years.
It is true that industrialization has helped shape the world into what it is today. However, while there are massive amounts of progress for people all throughout,
there is just as much repercussion for the environment. Since the dawn of industrialization as a whole, numerous factories and machineries that elicit the use of
non-renewable sources of energy has introduced another thing that’s all too familiar to the masses: pollution.
Pollution has proved to be a pain in the world. It is ruthless against all forms of plant life; and humans are of no exception as well. When somehow consumed –
particularly air pollution — the results can be disastrous and devastating. Luckily, with the ever-changing needs of every citizen of every country, numerous
alternative sources of energy have been introduced, one of which is the ultimate focus of what you’re reading: solar energy or ‘solar power.’
cells to provide power to numerous homes in remote places. Telecommunications were also strengthened by solar cells and, little by little, places where line
connectivity wasn’t an option began to gain access to electricity thanks to this innovative approach to power. It just goes to show that with the evolution of time,
there is bound to be change and progress.
● Flexible Applications
When one thinks of applying solar panels, the first area that would come to mind would be the roof or any area of a slightly higher height or altitude. While it
may be ideal, there are other areas that you can apply Philippine solar panels too. As long as they are exposed to the sun, the panels will do the rest.
● Long Lasting
The most notable advantage of solar power is that with its limitless capacity and endurance against any elemental condition, there is no doubt that solar
power will continue to power generations after generations.
● High Costs
While availing for it can be simple, it’s the matter of being able to afford it that’s proven quite difficult for many. Solar power is becoming a fast commodity for
everyone that it is no surprise that it has helped others gain a huge advantage in profit. With varying expenses to be paid at reasonable prices, solar power
certainly does not come cheap.
● Risk of Damage
Like any other item of possession, solar panels are also at risk of damage. When not taken care of properly, it can lead to various amounts of damage to
certain degrees.
● Issues on Space
While applications for solar panels can be as flexible as you wish, there’s always the matter of space and its limits. While solar energy is unlimited, spaces
and dimensions for your solar panel installation in the Philippines aren’t.
Key Takeaway
So there you have it. Everything you need to know about solar power. With its origins dating back to the late 19th century and its advancements towards modern
society, there is no doubt that solar power has left a lasting impact on society.
When it comes to looking for the right agent for your needs on solar power, Solaric will surely help you with those needs.

The green movement has now become more prevalent than ever. Various governments
and authoritative bodies are putting all they can in an effort to save the planet and
everyone in it from the heavy environmental disasters that have devastated the world
(which have been prevalent in recent years). Many countries have been affected by them
– including the Philippines. Because of this, the price for solar panels, environmentally-
friendly materials, and energy efficient electrical equipment is reaching its best point. This
is the main reason why prices of Philippine solar panels have become reasonable.
In the period of 1972-73, countries like India, Ukraine, and the continent of Africa
experienced famine and drought, while the oil-producing countries experienced an energy
crisis due to the increasing demand and price. During this decade, scientists and
researchers saw climate change, specifically global warming, as something that may
become a threat to the world in the following decades.
As a response to this global issue, countries and governments all over the world began to
establish organizations and hold conferences that would not only help prevent the rise of
climate change, but also find ways to preserve the environment, and look for
environmentally-friendly solutions.
In 1971, scientists across the globe held the SMIC Conference, which called for the
increased effort to do further research on the effects of climate change. In 1979, the World
Climate Research Program was established to give a more in-depth look at the causes
and effects of climate change to different parts of the world.
In 1987, the Montreal Protocol, which was a part of the Vienna Convention, called for
international restrictions on the usage and emission of gases that damage the ozone layer
of the earth’s atmosphere. Another conference, which was held in Toronto, also called for
the limiting of greenhouse gases. In the same year, the Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change was created, which helped increase awareness in regards to climate
change.
Their first report, which was released in 1990, found out that the world has been warming,
with the possibility of this continuing in the future. A second report done in 1995 detected
the signature of human-used greenhouse gases.
In Asia, the Kyoto Protocol established in 1997, which asked industrialized nations to
lessen their emission of greenhouse gases. In the following year, most of the world
experienced the “Super El Nino,” which became one of the warmest years on record.
Further reports by the IPCC during 2001 and 2007 indicate that the world is feeling the
adverse effects of climate change as time passes, and that further damage might be done
in the future. By 2005, the effects of the Kyoto Protocol have been put into action, with
various industrial nations lessening their use of greenhouse gases.
While these efforts have been effective in cutting down the usage of greenhouse gases,
global warming is still happening, and a global-scale solution was needed. In 2015,
nations around the world met and joined in the Paris Agreement. All participating nations
in this event have pledged to lessen the usage of greenhouse gases, while also reporting
their progress.
generated from natural resources. These natural resources include sunlight, wind,
geothermal energy, and water. Unlike most forms of resources, they can be renewed and
cannot be exhausted. Examples of renewable energy sources include geothermal plants,
wind turbines, hydroelectric power plants, bio fuels, and solar panels.
Today, most countries in the world still rely on traditional power sources like coal, oil, and
natural gases. These are resources that will dwindle over the next few years, and
acquiring these resources tend to damage the environment as well. Renewable
resources, meanwhile, can be procured in a more safe and clean manner.
Most of the world’s renewable energy resources rely on the sun. The heat of the sun is
what causes winds to happen, therefore being the main contributing factor in wind power.
The wind and the heat are also responsible for causing water vapors which create bodies
of water like rivers, which are the main source of hydroelectric plants. Sunlight also helps
plants to grow as well, helping create organic matter called biomass. Biomass is material
that can be used for organic fuels, chemicals, and even electricity. Finally, the heat of the
sun alone is also what makes solar energy work. This energy can be used for heating,
electricity, and much more.
Other forms of renewable energy include geothermal, hydrogen, and tidal energy.
Geothermal energy is energy that uses the Earth’s natural heat for heating and electricity
purposes. Tidal energy is caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun to the
Earth. Tidal energy can also be caused by the winds, and the sun’s heat can also cause a
change in temperature, which can all be used to produce electricity.
The biggest advantage of using renewable energy is that the resources that are used to
make them work are reusable. And unlike traditional energy sources, you would not
compromise the environment. With these energy sources, you are guaranteed to not only
help the environment, but also have a reliable power source.

Consumption
What is your consumption? The kWh used per month or the monthly bill would give you the gross consumption. We profile how
much energy or kuryente is used during daytime hours vs. nighttime hours. Of course, solar is very effective during daytime hours
because it can directly displace utility or “kuntador kuryente”.
https://solaric.com.ph/blog/solar-home-economics-101/ (2 of 5)10/4/2018 7:06:44 AM
Philippine Panel Installation & Solar Home Economics | Solaric Blog
Second is nighttime consumption. What appliances do you turn on during the night, how many air cons are on, etc.? For ethical
reasons, we would not suggest using your air con on lead acid batteries at night, since it is a false economy build;unless, of
course, if you live on an off-grid location or the Spratley Islands.
We then take this into account and start crunching numbers. For the old school people out there, we use Net Metering vs. batteries
to offset night consumption since it’s 3x cheaper to generate energy from solar than to store it. Batteries last a fraction as long as a
solar panel so we do not even use it for savings. We’d rather opt for banking surplus production during daytime hours via Net
Metering.
Net Metering
It is a special meter that the Utility Provider has to install to comply with National Law, specifically RA 9513 Sec 10. If your house
has surplus solar energy, the utility has to purchase the excess energy. The net metering process is complex for the average
homeowner to process, and even smaller solar outfits have a hard time on its documentary and rigid technical standards. Solaric
handles the Net Metering process and advises you on estimated costs as your home has to be updated to latest electrical codes.
Each job is wired differently, so costs vary.
We do not disconnect the Utility as they are there to give you power at night and buy your surplus power at day. We simply
integrate solar power with existing wiring. Solaric customers become Prosumers of grid power—consumers who also produce and
sell back their excess power.
Sizing
We look at the roof of your house, factory, or facility, either through Google maps or site survey; the only actual limiting factors for
solar are the amount of unshaded roof space and budget.
From our online tech survey or actual field visit, we can see how many solar panels we can fit and determine the best yielding
sides of your roof.
Our default strategy is to install enough solar to offset normal daytime loads (sub 5 year ROI) and if the client wants more
aggressive bill reduction, we can put more solar to cover night time loads. This will ZERO out the bill or result in a negative electric
bill—so you can buy that Tesla.
The most common concern is how much solar is needed to run the air con and the usual appliances, such as ref and fan. To
answer this question, that would be a 1.62 kWp installation at Php140K. To the industrial installation solar, we put in the Big Boy
Solar, the one that wipes out hundreds of thousands of pesos from a colossal electric bill.
Quotation
We do bill analysis of usage patterns: Day vs. night usage and available roof space, then suggest build sizes with approximate
savings. Our solar engineers will go over various build options (e.g. Philippines vs. China vs. Korea panels), installation locations,
and long term impact of electric bills. Solaric has the widest range of build options and, of course, we offer the best prices. From
there, we can come up with Return on Investment calculations. This can range anywhere from 3 to 6 years ROI or even faster if
electricity rates increase.
And that is when we can finally tell you “HM?” We will even tell you in great detail, using vowels, numbers, and all that.
Key Takeaway
In the Philippines, solar panels and their installation are not cheap nor are they for the financially impatient, but they will generate
returns that are easily 5x more than its initial investment. Solaric DIY packages for less than P30k make it an even better
investment than a smartphone.
Solaric has been systematically reducing electric bills and making the Philippines a greener place by enabling thousands of homes
and businesses to say no to coal by putting red hot high electric bills on the deep freeze and by showing global warming who the
real boss is.

What’s the real deal when it comes to Solar Panel Prices in the Philippines?
In 2018, the average price of Philippine solar panels, along with its installation, is Php 70/Watt to Php100/Watt.
There has been massive hype and buzz around solar. As of April 2018, according to the Department of Energy of the Philippines,
there were 20,515 megawatts of total installed solar capacity in the Philippines. This is enough to power millions of houses. But the
question that everyone really wants to ask is this: are solar panels worth it?

Renewable is Trending
When burned, fossil fuels are harmful. They create hazardous greenhouse gas emissions. This has contributed to the global
warming phenomenon.
The benefits to renewable energy for our planet are numerous and endless. Renewable energy is natural and clean. The carbon

emissions and greenhouse gases are increasing in our atmosphere, and have resulted in making our Mother Earth hotter. This is
what has caused a major shift in our climate. If we use renewable energy instead, this would immensely decrease the amount of
greenhouse gas emissions;, this would prevent the climate change devastation, and a future planet that is safe, clean, and green
would belong to us.
YOU can harvest solar energy and help save the planet
That is why the trend is solar. You can now harvest solar energy through rooftop solar on your house, or through solar panel
installations. That is how Filipino homeowners are now contributing to the community. You can actually help save the planet.
Rough calculations
For a 5kwp solar system, the savings usually average of more than Php8,000 per month. Each year, that accumulates to
Php100,000 in savings. Those savings can easily be used for other things, such as the children’s education, or insurance, or
recreation, or investments.
All in all, installing a 5kWp solar system in your home translates to about Php 2.5 Million in savings within a twenty five year period
for one customer without considering inflation yet.

Solar panel prices in the Philippines can be intimidating at first glance. They are an investment—one with guaranteed returns in
the long run. The rate of solar panel efficiency in the Philippines is quite high since it’s a tropical country, making installing solar
panels an excellent decision.
However, with all the energy that solar panels are able to generate from the sunlight, it may be possible that some of it won’t even
be used. Now that summer has arrived, electricity consumption is at its peak. This won’t be much of a problem if you have solar
panels installed in your home and if you apply for net metering.
Here are reasons why you should apply for net metering:
Key Takeaway
As you can see, applying for net metering brings about huge benefits. It’s not just a great way to maximize the energy generated
from your solar panels, it’s also a way for you to gain credits from your power distributor while also reducing your carbon footprint.
If you are thinking of installing solar panels in your own home or if you already have some, be sure to apply for net metering. Doing
so doesn’t only help you, but other people and the environment as well!

2. Then at nighttime, which is when the solar panels cannot produce energy, the supply is being taken
from the utility grid.
3. Should the consumption at night be more than what is delivered to the grid from the previous day,
the excess amount will be billed to the homeowner.
4. However, if the consumption at night is lesser than what is delivered to the grid, the excess amount
will be credited.
5. All credits will build up over the year and can be used during critical seasons where the panels
cannot generate enough energy.
Have you ever heard of net metering? Today, more and more home owners in the
Philippines are using solar systems (a.k.a. solar power systems), and net metering is
among the programs that utility companies are now offering solar owners. It is indeed a great
thing that a person is able to produce his/her own source of energy during the day, but did
you know you could also store the excess energy?
only be charged with the amount of energy that exceeds the amount of energy you have
contributed to the utility grid the other day.
Take this for example, if your solar panel produced and delivered a good 90kwh of energy to
the grid during the day, and you have consumed a 110kwh during the night, you will be paying
for the 20kwh that you have exceeded. However, if you have produced 90kwh and have only
consumed 50kwh, then you will be credited for 40kwh.
These credits will build up over the year, and it will be very helpful for you at times that your
solar panels wouldn’t generate much energy.
Net metering is among the most efficient programs in the Philippines that one can use to
maximize the energy generated by solar panels. Not only does this help home owners, but
also businesses and utility distributors alike. With how it works, definitely, you wouldn’t need
to worry about blackouts and peak consumptions anymore.

The prices of solar panels in the Philippines are becoming more and more affordable, making a transition to
using renewable energy a more variable option with every day that passes. With the ability to convert the
sun’s rays to electricity, solar energy is being now being seen as a major energy resource around the globe.
While a lot of countries are just scratching the surface on the use of solar power, these countries listed
below have been paving the way when it comes to integrating solar energy into their respective power
supplies.
Germany
Germany has become the world leader in solar power usage. In terms of total usage, Germany has over 30
gigawatts of installed solar capacity. In May 2017, Germany was able to generate 85 percent of its power
from renewable energy sources such as wind, biomass, hydroelectric power, and solar energy. This was
made possible by the country’s commitment to turning renewable energy as their primary energy source.
Non-renewable energy sources such as coal and nuclear energy are slowly being phased out, with the
intention of completely shutting them down.
Italy
Being a country with no fossil fuel resources, Italy has steadily increased their solar energy usage over the
past few years. This is a practical choice after years of relying on imported natural gas as a major power
source. The government of Italy has also implemented various incentive schemes to further encourage the
development and use of renewable energy.
China
The country with the largest population in the world is also one of the countries that has seen steady growth
in the number of solar power installations in the past few years. The increase of solar panel installations can
be attributed to their low cost and availability in the country. Being the largest producer of solar panels in the
world, China aims to increase their renewable energy supply in the near future.
United States
Granted, the United States has been the world leader in the usage in non-renewable energy. However, the
powerful country has reached a number of solar power milestones and an increase of renewable energy
usage. Various companies, along with the government, have transitioned to installing and relying on solar
panels. With the number of solar panel projects increasing in the country, the United States aims to catch up
and become one of the biggest users of this sustainable energy.
Japan
Japan was the first country in the world to reach 1 GW, and became one of the leaders in solar power
during the 90s and the early 2000s. This slowed down for several years due to the expansion of nuclear
power. In 2012, Japan renewed their focus on solar energy plants after the devastating 2011 earthquake
caused damage to their nuclear power plants. Once a world leader, Japan looks to become one again in the
future.
Key Takeaway
With many of the world’s most powerful countries turning to the use of renewable energy, the practice is
slowly making its way to other countries. For third-world countries like the Philippines, solar power is at its
early stages but has the potential to grow at a steady rate. Have you made the transition yet?

Climate change is one of the alarming situations the Earth is facing. The country has been experiencing various effects of
climate change, such as floods, droughts, stronger typhoons, and rising of the sea level that directly affects the
environment and the economy.
Fortunately, several establishments and households are now embracing the sustainable lifestyle, especially through the
use of solar energy since there are many reasonable prices of solar panels in the Philippines. Solar energy has been
one of the most popular and fastest-growing sources of renewable energy not only in the country but in different parts of
the world as well. Apart from the solar energy, there are other forms of renewable energy that can be used as an
alternative source of electricity. Read on and let’s take a look at the different types of renewable energy.
Biomass Energy
Biomass energy is one of the most used renewable energies in the world. Biomass refers to the use of organic materials
and converting them into their other forms that can be used as energy. One of the largest sources of biomass energy is
wood and other forest residues, such as branches, dead trees, and tree stumps. The burning of woods has been the
oldest form of biomass, however, there are newer methods that do not produce carbon dioxide. With this, utilizing biomass
energy is definitely clean and reduces the carbon dioxide emission. Moreover, sustainably grown biomass can produce up
to four times the global electricity needed by 2050.
Geothermal Energy
Geothermal energy is a thermal energy gathered from the heat found underneath the Earth’s surface, commonly from hot
springs, magma conduits, and hydrothermal circulation. Geothermal hot water is often used to dry out fish and crops, heat
buildings, and raise plants in greenhouses.
In the Philippines, Leyte is one of the provinces that produced geothermal energy. There are also geothermal power
plants in Luzon, Negros, and Mindanao. With this, geothermal energy provides the country with almost 27% of its total
electricity production.
Hydrogen Energy
Water is about 800 times heavier than the air, making it capable of producing considerable amounts of energy. There are
https://solaric.com.ph/blog/types-of-renewable-energy/ (2 of 4)10/4/2018 7:10:00 AM
Types of Renewable Energy | Solar Panels Philippines | Solaric
many forms of water energy, such as hydroelectric power, small hydro systems, and run-of-the-river hydroelectricity.
Wind Energy
Did you know that wind technology can provide 9% of global electricity by 2030? Wind energy is a clean and non-polluting
source of electricity. It uses a wind turbine, a device that can convert the wind’s kinetic energy into electrical power. Wind
turbines rotate either by horizontally or vertically and typically place in areas with higher wind resources, such as offshore.
Bangui Wind Farm and Burgos Wind Farm in Ilocos Norte are some of the big developments of wind energy in the
Philippines.
Over the years, people have relied almost entirely on coal and natural gases for energy. Today, there are many
alternatives in which we can get electricity. In fact, our country has several possibilities of getting clean yet cheap energy.
Good thing, various environmental organizations and even the government are utilizing such possibilities to finally switch
to the sustainable lifestyle and make the world a better place to live in.

One way to play a part in conserving and protecting our environment is by consuming less energy
daily. In relation to this, using a solar panel is highly encouraged. It is common misunderstanding
that purchasing a solar panel is costly – what they fail to realize is that there are various
affordable prices of solar panels. In the Philippines, various environmental organizations are
consistently placing effort to convince citizens to switch into the sustainable lifestyle. Another way
to do this is by investing in energy-efficient appliances.
Join the movement and make your humble abode a more environment-friendly one. Ditch the
energy-guzzling appliances you may currently have for these highly energy-efficient appliances
that only use energy up to two to ten times less.
Ceiling Fan
A ceiling fan is a great choice as it has a wattage of 65 to 175. In comparison, the average electric
fan has wattage of about 2000 to 3000, so it definitely consumes a lot more energy!
Laptop
Instead of a desktop, opt instead to use a laptop. It consumes 85% less electricity than desktop,
making it the most energy-efficient choice. To save even more energy, turn off your laptop when
not in use. You could also use one large power strip with individual switches, so you can plug the
laptop and other appliances in there and turn it off as needed. This tip could save you up to 200
kWh per year.

Each modern house is different, but what makes them similar is that they are considered home by
its residents and they need electricity. Some people opt to save money when it comes to electric
consumption and are happier with solar panel prices in the Philippines and using renewable
source energy for their home.
That aside, have you ever looked at your electric bill and wondered which appliances consume the
most energy? Listed below are every home’s biggest energy consumers.
Lighting
The house lights are diverse and distributed to each room. An estimated range lights consume per
month is 100-150 kWh per hour. There are energy-saving bulbs and are even environmentally
friendly to use, such as LEDs and CLFs. Remember to turn off the lights when a room is empty,
except when it’s only going to be empty for a couple of minutes to save energy.
Refrigerator/Freezer
It is fairly unavoidable to unplug freezers or refrigerators because if you do, the food inside will
spoil! The average energy range of this appliance is from 200-400 kWh per month. Refrigerators
that are already more than 10 years old tend to consume more energy, so in the long run it’s better
to buy a new one. New refrigerators nowadays have a power saving option recommended to be
used during the nighttime.
Water heater
Water heaters are used in the showers, cleaning or ironing clothes, and washing the dishes.
Studies in the U.S. show that they consumes about 12% of the overall energy used in a home. The
average consumption per month is estimated around 400-600 kWh, which is even higher than the
refrigerator!
Air-conditioning
Air-conditioning units are notorious for being consuming the most energy, with an average
consumption of 400-800 kWh per month. An AC with inverter are the best electricity-saving AC
units in the market, as the power they consume depends on the temperature of the incoming air as
well as the level set in the thermostat. Setting the thermostat to 25 degree Celsius is highly
recommended to save energy. Each degree you adjust will increase the cost!
The items on this list probably didn’t come as a shock, but it’s still a good reminder. Unplug
appliances when they’re not in use (with the exception of the refrigerator of course). When an
appliance is nearing replacement, do your research in advance and find out which units consume
the least energy. You may even find alternatives that are solar-powered!

constant sight that is rarely acknowledged except when it is burning hot and we complain
about the unbearable heat. Despite that, the sun is actually one of the primary reasons
why there is life on earth. It is not just a huge ball of energy that we see from space; it
offers plenty of benefits for mankind. In countries like the Philippines, solar energy is
harvested from Philippine solar panels to as an alternative energy source. Indeed, the sun
is definitely important to Earth and mankind.
Beyond
With the ongoing developments in technology, man has learned how to harness the gifts
of Mother Nature to make daily life easy. One of these gifts is the energy sources like
water and wind. These energy sources are renewable, natural and sustainable. The Sun
has proven to be a reliable source of energy as well. Ever since the discovery of the
photovoltaic effect by Edmond Becquerel in 1839, man began to utilize the Sun’s heat to
power machines and light up infrastructures. Over time, the Sun showed that it is a much
better energy source compared to fossil fuels because the former is cleaner and the
equipment needed requires only minimal maintenance.
Indeed, the Sun is an important part of our daily lives. It will continue to be a necessity in
our lives until the end of time.

Solutions - No Batteries
Solaric implements grid tied solar solutions. This means solar power
You have 5kWp of solar panels on your Philippine home. It’s 10AM on a
hot summer morning. Your system is harvesting 3,500W right now.
However, you’re running 4hp of aircon, your electric dryer, and a water
pump; and you actually need 7,500W. Well, the first 3,500W is already
being supplied by your rooftop. The remaining 4,000W will be supplied
by Meralco/your power company. This is all automatic. The grid tie
inverter that Solaric installed automatically synchronizes with the grid
(Meralco or your local power company). All of this would entail that there
will be no flickering, no switching, and best of all – no batteries!
You have 3kWp of solar panels on your homes in the Philippines. It’s
harvesting 2000W right now. Nothing is on except a fridge and a
computer so only 300W is being consumed. Where does the extra
1700W go? Well, if you signed up for NET METERING with your Power
Company, your meter will actually reverse and they will credit you for
the kWh you exported. You can use this at night. Right now, they only
credit for blended generation charge, not 1:1 value. But it’s just as good
as batteries. Why? Because:

Manila, Philippines
August 25, 2018
In the last six years, Solaric has invested and nurtured its way to explosive growth, becoming the top provider for solar panel
installations in the Philippines. As the race for solar panels soared in the country, the clamor for rooftop installations surged,
Solaric rapidly climbed its way to the top as the leader in rooftop solar for the Philippine residential solar market as of mid-year
2018.
A Closer Peek
There are Philippine solar companies that have deliberately catered to specific projects, such as government funded solar. The
other solar companies tap into new sales channels and finance offerings but endure the short-term effects of increased customer
acquisition costs and profit declines. Almost every other solar panel installation in the Philippines has struggled to grow in the last
three years, but Solaric has stayed out in the sun by constantly investing in research and development and increasing its network
of competent installers and dealers nationwide.
Regina Rome is a solar analyst with the Solar Digital Squad Research.

Switching to a sustainable lifestyle is a switch that many people are making. This is because these people see the importance in caring for the environment.
Sustainable lifestyle refers to a lifestyle that tries to reduce one’s negative impact on the environment and overall lessens their use of the Earth’s natural resources.
One of the popular ways to switch to green living is by going solar, this could mean installing solar panels on your roof. Committing to a greener lifestyle requires
extensive research and there are various things that you need to consider first. Here’s a simple guide that contains all the essential things you need to know
before and after you install solar panels on your roof.
● Can Your Roof Support Solar Panels? – The kind of roof you have is the first thing you need to consider when going solar. Do you have a stable roof that
can support solar panels? Does it have enough solar windows to maximize the solar panels? Consider these questions before installing solar panels on
your roof.
Apart from these things, make sure that your roof is in good shape. In case it does need renovation, do it immediately before the installation of solar panels. This
way, you will save time and money from disconnecting the solar panels in case you do need to renovate it. Furthermore, examine the angle of your roof. The tilt of
your roof can determine the performance of your solar panel system. Having the tilt of your panels at the same angle as your latitude will make sure they are
optimized.
● Determine the Amount of Energy You Need – It is also important to determine the amount of energy you consume monthly before purchasing solar
panels. Every household operates differently which means they consume energy at different rates. Doing this will help you decide how many solar panels

Solar panels in the Philippines have greatly contributed to the green movement. If you are among those who have begun using solar panels in their home,
CONGRATULATIONS! You’re doing the world a great service. If you’re not, it’s not too late to get those solar panels!
There are many other ways you can reduce your carbon footprint. You could get your hands on these really cool solar-powered gadgets, find alternatives for certain
household appliances, and/or start doing the following sustainable DIY projects at your home.
Composting
Composting is a method of using decayed organic material as a plant fertilizer, which will help in decreasing the landfill waste. It is a practical way to save the
environment and save money as well since you do not need to buy artificial fertilizers for your plants. Follow the instructions below to help you achieve your
composting goals!
1. First, distinguish what are the possible kitchen scraps that can be composted. Scraps, such as fruit and vegetable peelings, egg shells, coffee grounds, and grass clippings are
efficient soil enhancers. Processed foods, dairy, and meat are not appropriate for composting.
2. Before putting in the composting pile, make sure that the things you will compost are small and shredded.
3. You can keep your composting pile inside your kitchen. By this, you can fill it right away with scraps every after meal. Take it outside if it is already full.
4. Every now and then, slightly add water to your compost pile to maintain its moisture.
5. Also, make sure that your compost pile is on even level so that it will drain properly.
6. Maintain an even amount of green and brown scraps in your compost pile. Both types of compost are essential in maintaining the nutrients of your compost pile. The green compost
provides nitrogen while the brown scraps gives carbon to the compost pile.
7. Avoid including grass clippings or leaves that have been treated with pesticides and other chemicals into your compost pile.
Reduce your exposure to various chemicals by using your own household cleaners. Majority of the ingredients in making such cleaners can be found in your pantry.
Ditch the chemical products and start using natural household cleaners instead!
Air Freshener
Mix baking soda and vinegar will help reduce the foul odor around the house. You can also use coffee grounds to keep your kitchen counter fresh.
Deodorizer
To deodorize your food containers and storage, soak them in baking soda and warm water. Leave it overnight. To deodorize an in-sink garbage disposal unit, grind
up an orange peel or lemon in it.
Window Cleaner
Mix 1 liter of water and 2 teaspoons of white vinegar. Use a cotton cloth when applying the mixture into the window glass.

2. Significant ROI
3. Continuous innovation and milestones
Investing in a solar system in the Philippines is an achievement on its own. This indicates that you are finally ready for the global standard
for sustainability and economic progress. But more than that, investing and installing it in your home provides the opportunity for a clean
energy shift.
A clean energy shift happens when there has been a significant change in your lifestyle that promotes being environment-friendly. It could
be as small as committing to properly storing your wastes, or as big as choosing to install a solar system in your Philippine home and
business establishment.
If you are still deciding on the latter, then you might want to consider the benefits that come with it.
The steady increase in jobs in the renewable energy combats those in the fossil fuel economy. In our country, fossil fuels are the primary
source of energy but the benefits of renewable energy should promote a change in that standard.
Fossil fuels have been proven as an outdated and environmentally hazardous source of energy, which is not suitable for industries in the
long run. The rise in renewable energy projects can exhibit more opportunities for people to secure jobs which will result in a significant
increase in revenues and investments.
Significant Return-On-Investments
There is a common misconception that renewable energy sources are insignificant investments because they are expensive and the
alternative energy source is cheaper. However, this statement is false.
Investing in renewable energy brings in new jobs to people that can boost a country’s economy. In addition, shifting to clean energy will
reduce the county’s costs of energy consumption. The significant impact of renewable energy development can be utilized by homes,
industries, and small-scale businesses in both the rural and urban area.
The misconceptions about clean energy shift remain assumptions because one must fully invest in renewable energy sources to come
across concrete testaments to its sustainable capabilities and potential.
Key Takeaway
The benefits listed above will be continuously received by the countries, organizations, and individuals who are moving towards a clean
energy shift.

On-Grid/Off-Grid Systems
Suitable For Your Home
Many people have now made the choice to adopt solar energy in the Philippines due
to the abundance of sunlight all over the country, making it an extremely viable
choice when it comes down to it. Not only is it efficient, but using it also helps in the
world’s efforts in mitigating the effects of climate change.
When adopting this kind of technology, though, keep in mind that it can come in three
kinds: grid-tied, hybrid, and off-grid. Take your needs into consideration before
choosing which one you’d rather go with.
Off-grid
Off grid systems are those that can stand alone. To be able to have electricity all the
time, off grid solar systems should be connected to batteries that store the power, or
in case of an emergency, a backup generator. In order to keep the system in good
condition, battery banks that store the power harvested from the sun should be
replaced every ten years. Aside from batteries, you are also going to need charge
controllers, which will control the current of electricity going to the batteries and
prevent them from overcharging. When the sun sets, you’ll be running on the power
stored in the batteries.
Grid-tied
Grid-tied means that when you install your PV system, you use the electricity
generated from the PV system in the day, but use the electricity from national grid at
night. When your or any other homeowner’s PV system generates more electricity
that you consume, some utility companies buy that electricity. Better that that let it go
to waste, and better sell it than store it in batteries that you’ll have to replace every
ten years.
One of the good things about being tied to the grid is that if your PV systems fail, you
have back up and your house will immediately switch to consuming electricity from
the national grid. This prevents any sudden interruption of power.
One of the other things you’ll need for this PV system is a solar inverter or grid-tie
inverter. These regulate the current you receive from your solar panels by converting
the direct current your solar panels generate into alternating current which is what
electrical appliances utilize.
Hybrid
Hybrid means that you both have batteries to store your power in like off-grid
systems, but you are also connected to the national grid. However, you don’t have a
backup generator because you’re already connected to the national grid. If your PV
system generates more than you consume, the power is stored in the batteries, or
you can put it on the grid and sell it. You can also program your home to get off your
PV system or the grid during off-peak hours.
You’re going to need most of the components for the off-grid and grid-tied for the
hybrid except for the generator.
The type of system you want to install is ultimately up to you. So which kind of
system do you think is perfect for your home? Either way, investing in green tech is
never a bad idea.

Renewable energy
There are many sources of renewable energy: solar energy, where energy
from sunlight is harvested and converted into electricity using solar panels;
wind, which can be harvested using wind turbines (or windmills); tidal,
which can be harvested by the turbines that spin from the movement of
waves; wave, where seawater movement compresses air and spins the
turbine; geothermal, where cold water is pumped into the ground and
comes back up as steam which is used to power the turbines to create
electricity; hydroelectric, where energy is harvested from the movement of
water through bodies of water such as rivers, and dams; and biomass,
where energy is harvested from chemically treating animal waste or
decaying organic materials, but is only considered renewable energy if
crops or organic materials are replanted.
Advantages
One of the advantages of renewable energy is that it will never run out.
That’s why it’s called renewable – because the source of the energy is
sustainable which allows it to be used continuously. The energy that can
be harvested from nature is potentially infinite. Another is that when power
produced by converting the energy is used, there is no waste products,
unlike non-renewable energy sources that release pollutants or
greenhouse gases when burned through to be consumed.

Solar flares
Solar flares happen when magnetic energy is built up and suddenly
released into the solar atmosphere which results in a flash of brightness,
like a whip cracking, on the surface of the sun. These solar flares are
made up of atoms, electrons, and ions, which are released into the
corona, the outermost layer of the atmosphere of the sun which can be
seen by the naked eye during solar eclipses. Solar flares are caused by
the interaction of charged particles with plasma. These charged particles
of magnetic energy move in loops, turns into kinetic energy, and is
released when the energy is built up. These flares usually occur on the
most active parts of the sun where magnetic fields are much stronger.
They also happen in all layers of the atmosphere of the sun. Plasma is
heated to millions of Kelvin, and the charge of ions can go as fast as the
speed of light.

The availability of affordable solar panels in the Philippines is an indication that Filipinos are slowly
embracing what we call the ‘sustainable lifestyle’. Sustainable living refers to a healthy living that
uses fewer natural resources and reduces an individual’s carbon footprint to the environment.
Sustainable living may include consuming less energy, saving water, eliminating toxic products at
home, practicing the 3 R’s (reducing, reusing, and recycling), eating and growing organic food,
and practicing minimalism, among others. Such sustainable habits can give a quality life not only to
us but for the future generation as well.
If you haven’t considered joining this movement already, here are a few of the many benefits of going
green to help you decide. Read on and learn the advantages of living a sustainable life.
Financial Benefits
One of the obvious benefits of going green is that it will actually help you save money. It’s really not
that costly, as most people may think! Practice the green habits enumerated below to that help save
the environment and your financial assets as well.
● Switch to solar panels. These will benefit you in the long run.
● If solar panels are not your choice, opt for compact fluorescent light (CFL) or light-emitting diode (LED) bulb.
These types of bulb consume less energy compared to their counterparts.
● Replace some of your household items with energy-efficient appliances and solar-powered gadgets.
● Unplug home appliances, such as TV, computer, and air conditioner when not in use. This green habit will
definitely reduce your utility bills.
● Start composting. This will prevent you from spending money when buying commercial fertilizer. This will also
reduce the trash you send in the landfill.
A Healthier Life
Switching to sustainable lifestyle will definitely provide you a healthier life. Here are some green
habits that promote a healthier and sustainable life.
● Opt for organic food. Organically grown food does not have any toxic chemicals in it, making it a healthier
choice compared to conventionally grown food. Grow them yourself if the ones in grocery stores are too
expensive.
● Ditch toxic products and start using natural cleaners and beauty products. Doing this will lessen your
exposure to various toxic chemicals found in commercial products that are harmful to your health.
● When buying a certain home supplies, choose product that packaged in glass or bottle containers rather than
the plastic ones. Many types of plastic have been shown to have toxic chemicals that are risky to human’s
health.
● Opt for walking or biking to lessen the use of your vehicle. Such practice will reduce the air pollution and will
give you a clean and clear air to breathe.
A Sustainable World
All the mentioned sustainable habits will definitely result to the most important benefit of going green
—having a sustainable world. A sustainable world will have improved quality of air and water, less
solid waste, decrease in carbon footprint, reduced fossil fuel dependency, the right amount of food
supply for everyone, well-maintained natural resources, a balanced ecosystem, and a rich
biodiversity, among others.
These are only a few of the many benefits of going green. As a citizen, it is important that we do our
part in conserving and protecting our Mother Earth every day. After all, we are the ones who will
ultimately benefit from it.

Solar panels in the Philippines can be now seen on the roofs of various
establishments, farms, and even households. Another popular trend are green
roofs, wherein grass and plants are grown on the rooftops. Green roofs typically
consist of a waterproofing membrane, growing soil, and plants. These have
become a trend among architects and urban planners due to the various
benefits it brings to both private and public sectors.
Just how good are they for the environment and for the people in and out of the
establishment? Let’s consider the benefits they bring.
Energy Efficient
Since green roofs provide great insulation, it can reduce the needed amount of
energy to cool down the living space. It can help in the reduction of energy
consumption significantly during summer, when we tend to turn up the a/c just
to stay cool.
However, the outcome may vary depending on the climate condition, thickness
of the insulation, and type of the building or construction.
The efficiency of solar panels will increase since green roofs can help them in
absorbing the heat easily, thus, making them more effective.
Are green roofs really good for you? Definitely yes! Planting your rooftops
definitely brings many benefits to private, public, social, and economic sectors.
Join the green movement, turn your house into a green home, and consider a
green roof!

beginning. There are even more adjustments you can make in your home that could decrease
excessive use of energy and decrease the rate of global warming. Join the green movement and
start building a green home by following the practical tips below.
● Big Windows in your living room and other parts of the house will increase the insulation and optimize
sunlight throughout the room. It will also lessen the use of light and electric fans or air-conditioning.
● Replace Bulbs with compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs and light-emitting diode (LED) to save up to 66%
more energy. Switching to such types of bulbs will reduce the greenhouse gas emissions of your house by
400 pounds.
● Unplug home appliances, such as TV and computer when they are not in use.
● Power Strips are great for plugging groups of home appliances and gadgets. It reduces power usage AND
makes it easy for you to unplug several electronics at once.
In the Bedroom
● Grow houseplants to improve the quality of air in your bedroom. In some cases this can also lessen your
usage of electric fans or air conditioner.
● Don’t overcharge your mobile phones, tablets, and other gadgets. You should particularly avoid charging
your gadgets before going to sleep as this will uses up more energy. You may want to start using solar-
powered gadgets as well.
● Use a ceiling fan instead of the regular electric fan. A ceiling fan uses only 2% of the energy compared to its
standing counterpart.
In the Bathroom
● Turn off the tap when you are brushing your teeth or applying facial wash, et c.
● Inspect for possible leaks, as leakage in your tap can waste up to 182 liters of water every year. Regularly
inspect your faucet and all other plumbing to ensure that it is free from any leakage.
In the Kitchen
● Switch to non-toxic cleaning products and ditch your regular cleaning products. Kitchen ingredients, such
as baking soda and lemon are some of the natural cleaners you can use.
● Compost kitchen scraps as this could serve as your instant organic fertilizer. You will also reduce the
amount of solid waste sent to the landfill.
● Avoid Plastic Containers when buying your toiletries or kitchen condiments. Instead, opt for glass
containers, as you can reuse the glass containers afterwards.
These are practical tips and sustainable habits you and your family can apply in your own home.
Start doing the simple tips mentioned above and you’ll know you’re doing your part in making our
environment a better place to live in. After all, the environment is everyone’s responsibility.

Environmental organizations are urging everyone to play their part in conserving and protecting our
Mother Earth. One of the easiest ways to contribute to this is by consuming less energy daily.
Contrary to the popular notion that solar panels are costly, many affordable prices of solar panels in
the Philippines are available to urge the Filipino people in switching into an energy-efficient living.
Choosing to consume less energy will provide many positive impacts to both people and
environment. Now is the perfect time to join the conservation movement and start opting for energy-
efficient appliances. To convince you to make the switch to the sustainable lifestyle, here are the top
beneficial reasons to make your humble abode an energy efficient one.
Reduce
Fossil fuels are burned in order to produce energy, but it also has negative side effects to the
environment. The burning of fossil fuel produces heat-trapping gases, which is the primary cause of
global warming. When you consume less energy or install solar panels at home, you can reduce the
need to burn several fossil fuels. You may argue that it’s just one home against millions of others, but
it’s a start.
Doing more with less energy is definitely beneficial for people and environment. Starting to save
energy does not have to be complicated nor expensive. There are several easy ways to reduce your
carbon footprint without having to bend over backwards. Simple energy-saving habits, such as
turning off the lights when not in use and turning down a water heater are already big help in the
environment and for you as well.

General information
Even in science’s early years, the sun has always been pegged as a prominent
feature of our solar system. In fact, that’s not far from the truth – we can prove today
that the sun does compose a whopping 99.8% of our solar system. Comprised of
70% hydrogen and 28% helium, among other elements, the sun is a truly central
attribute of the space around us.
So much so that many stories, legends, and myths – most of which can be dated
back to centuries before – have been created with it as the catalyst for all life. That’s
not far from the truth, either, as the sun is has been a source of human power – one
way or another – for a very, very long time.
time comes.

Philippines due to its convenience and efficiency when it comes to costs. The power
of the sun is abundant, after all, so installing a solar panel in one’s home or
establishment is definitely a worthwhile investment. But, have you ever wondered
how the world’s different cultures viewed the sun during the early years?
Different civilizations had beliefs that revolved around the worship or the importance
of the sun. As numerous cultures arose, diverse sun gods also emerged. Here are
some of the most popular sun gods during the time:
Apollo
There were two deities named Apollo that were worshipped – one was the patron god
of poetry, medicine, and mathematics; the other Apollo was the Roman sun god of
healing, light, and music.
Ama-terasu
Ama-terasu is the Japanese’s version of a sun god. In fact, the whole country loved
the sun – the early name for the place, Nihon, meant “origin of the sun”. This was due
to their location and the way that the sun rose within the country. When it came down
to it, they were so fond of the sun that they even incorporated it into the national flag
– that’s what the red ball against the white background symbolizes.

Sun Gods of Different Cultures | Solar Panels Philippines | Solaric
The African Sun Gods were namely Mahu and Liza, twins from Nana Buluku. They
symbolized balance between the sky and earth. Liza is known as the male who
brought power from the sun and skies while the female was Mahu who meant the
moon and earth who brought fertility in the African culture.
Maui
Maui is a Polynesian Sun God by the folk lore of people from the Pacific. It originated
from New Zealand that were mentioned in Tongan, the Maui Fusi-Fonua and
Tangoloa.
Ra or Re
Ra or Re was the Egyptian Sun God believed that it was the manifestation of god
with other names of gods as well. They said that men were born from the tears of Ra,
created from his image and flesh to give support and care for mankind.
Utu

Sun Gods of Different Cultures | Solar Panels Philippines | Solaric
This was the Sumerian Sun God, the premiere sun worshippers. There were other
gods that were worshipped such as the triad of planetary great gods – the Utu.
Yhi
Many people believed that the Aboriginal Sun Spirit brought light into our world, the
sun spirit named Yhi. Baiame and Yhi were inseparable because of their warmth and
light contribution to the world.
As you can see, the sun has been a long standing symbol for humans everywhere,
no matter the time period. The mere fact that we are now able to harness its power
and turn it into electricity is truly a wonder. So the next time you look up at the sky,
remember that you’re looking at the same sun the ancient people did hundreds – and
even thousands – of years ago.

infinitely renewable. Here, where the weather is dictated by only two seasons (the
rainy and the summer), enjoying a bright, sunny day is the norm.
But be warned, as overexposure to the sun can cause problems. It can range from
something as small as wrinkles and sunburns to even skin cancer. That said, read up
on the following tips on how you can enjoy the temperate outdoors without having to
worry about its negative effects:
exposure, then it’s the best option you’ve got aside from using an umbrella.
As much as possible, wear long sleeved shirts and long pants to minimize skin
exposure. You can also opt to wear wide brimmed hats – about 3 inches or more on
the rim – and sunglasses to ensure that you’re kept safe from the sun’s rays.

For those on a budget, one free advice we could give is for you to make a quick trip to our showroom during weekdays.
You do not have to be an electrical engineer to comprehend this seminar, but you should at least be a high school or college
graduate as we are doing some high school math and a little algebra on some of our computations (aside from the usual business
math).
Our two-day Solar 101 and 202 covers the mechanics on how to integrate solar panels to any electrical system—from ice plants to
a small residential project. Salient details on how solar works, how to pick solar panels like a pro, computation for return on
investment, and things to watch out for when installing high powered solar systems are covered in length.
Who attends our seminars, you ask? We often have astute businessmen, energy executives, Solar farm designers, Energy
companies, homeowners, enthusiasts, entrepreneurs, and solar companies, who want to be well informed, as our audience. This
means that you can expect meaningful, professional content.
Certificate of completion, hot meals, and chances to win great prizes on the raffle table are included.
There are discount vouchers worth more than the entrance fee, and attendees of the 202 workshop are privy to installer rates for
key materials if they decide to get into the business.
Our Solar 101 course was developed with input from experienced solar installers, who come from around the world, that have
practical experience in doing hundreds of rooftops in the Philippines. Although this does not mean they are not comprehensible to
the common man, businessman, and appreciable to even the most seasoned electrical engineer. In fact, it’s the other way around.
Solar 202, on the other hand, is for people who want to go to the next step and get into the boots of an installer for a day. They will
be wiring up live systems and watch the electric meter spin backward with our ERC-approved grid tie methods.
Graduates of 202 are then given full access to our arsenal of Solaric tested and approved materials such as Tier 1 solar panels, off
grid and grid tie inverters, lithium, and non-lithium batteries at industry insider rates to grow their business.

Guard Rails
Guardrail systems are used to make removable guardrails on your roof. This can be attached to any type of
roof at any angle. It also has risers which can accept any standard 2×4 piece of wood. When connected to
each other, they create a stable rail system for your roof.
The rail system acts as the vertical bars that support the wood which act as the horizontal bars. These also
have holders at the bottom to hold 2×4’s that act as toe boards so that tools don’t fall off. Install this on all
the edges of your roof or, at least, on the steep parts of it.
Being safe on the roof is all about the having the right tools, using them properly, and being responsible not
only for your own safety but for others. These are all good investments to ensure that you can improve your
house without risking your life.

Pros
Save Money
The primary benefits of utilizing renewable energy and other efforts towards sustainability are efficiency in
energy consumption and reduced waste. Consequently, this also means you get to save a lot of money in
the long run. Your electric bill will be considerably lowered, and a substantial amount could be saved by
reducing the total number of paper that your company has to use.
Branding
Consumers are constantly looking for ways to ‘help the world, – in a way, it’s sad that many people only do
this by choosing products that blatantly announce being environmental-friendly. Branding your business as
being eco-friendly makes it more appealing to the masses – however, make sure that it’s authentic. Those
caught greenwashing, which is – claiming to be more eco-friendly than you really are, you will lose the trust
and respect of the consumers.
Cons
It Takes Time
Going eco-friendly is a process that takes up a considerable amount of time, effort, and money. The
decision can happen overnight, but actually implementing and maintaining it takes quite a while.
Consequently, choosing to make this decision will require you to put in constant effort to maintain and care
for the changes that you’ve integrated into the company.
Going green might sound too much of a hassle at first, but if you read and hear testimonies from people that
are already in the “green” business, you’ll know that it is quite rewarding. Aside from benefitting your
business and the environment, it’ll also help you grow as an individual that contributes to a good cause in
the world.

Aesthetic Designs for Homes Powered by Solar Panels Priced in the Philippines
What are some great ideas for a more beautifully presented solar panel home?
1. Making certain adjustments to the current solar setup
2. Use solar panels to provide shade for your porch area
3. Place black solar panels on black roof
In this day and age, authorities in modern design such as Architectural Digest have come to recognize the potential solar powered homes have for exuding elegant levels of structural home design. With the varying ranges
of solar panel prices in the Philippines, it would be a great aesthetic upgrade for your home to make the switch to solar power.
Solar power for homes is becoming more and more of an established norm for the world’s most brilliant architects and interior designers. Here are some great ideas to process when thinking of designing a solar powered
home:

Use It as a Shade
High-temperature areas (like the Philippines) are ideal locations for solar porches; the shade provided through solar filtered daylight makes for a dreamy view of the skies accompanied with a protective performance. Solar
skylight and solar shade are greatly utilized with see-through modifications integrated on exterior planes.
However, a common concern about spaces like these is the roofing since it is not part of the main structure; meaning, the area is not under the main roof.
One great way to make use of the airspace is by installing a small roofing system with solar panels.
This technique is more advisable for homeowners, who do not want to conduct a large-scale installation.
Different homes have varying porch sizes. While porches may have a significantly smaller floor area compared to the main body of the house, the floor space it occupies is sufficient enough for solar panels to be installed
on top.
Go for Black
Solar panels priced in the Philippines can either be in color blue or black; if you are torn about which one to choose, pick the black one.
In general, positioning black solar panels over a black roof can provide a seamless look not only for your roof, but for the overall curb appeal of the house.
You don’t have to worry about the color scheme of the house’s exterior because a black roof can blend well with dark-toned paint. If you prefer lighter tones for the main body of the house, having a black roof can make the
lighter shade pop and appear more vibrant.
Black solar panels are more aesthetically pleasing and go well easily with any exterior design—its components also absorb more solar power for the home.
They appear black due to the unique way sunlight interacts with the silicon layer of the panel. Unlike the silicon found in the blue solar panels, the ones in the black variants have a high purity level.
Key Takeaway
Navigating your way through the different solar panel prices in the Philippines is an exciting venture, when it comes to upgrading your home. It is indeed possible to have a home that directly has a positive impact on the
environment as well as look absolutely stylish.
Switching or converting your homes to use solar power does not mean that these households will look bland and robotic. There are many ways to tweak and re-design a solar powered house in order to achieve the most
luxurious of architectural peaks—just follow our tips above!

Beware of shades
Sun exposure plays a huge role to your solar panel’s efficiency and output. Because efficiency refers to the
total percentage of the sun’s energy that solar cells accumulates to convert into electricity, it obviously relies
on direct sunlight. Output, on the other hand, is the electricity that the solar array generates from the
sunlight. The lesser the sun exposure, the lower the efficiency level.
This is particularly important in solar cells that are connected in a series. This is because when a single cell
is shaded, it can decrease the output of its neighboring cells in the series.
In order to prevent such situation, make sure you install your solar PV system in a spot where absolutely
nothing will block the sun rays.
Key Takeaway
Increasing efficiency ensures that you get the maximum output from your solar PV system. Through these
simple ways, not only can you make sure that your solar arrays are efficient enough to produce more than
enough energy for your household needs, but that they can also be relied on for a longer time.

More and more people are learning about the benefits of using solar power in the business or even at home.
And with solar panel prices in the Philippines becoming more affordable, it would not be surprising to see it
commonplace in the near future.
It’s not just technology that can get energy from the sun. We could benefit from basking in a some sunrays
too! Here are some reasons why getting some sunlight is good for your body.
Solar panels harness energy from the sun to produce electricity. The human skin, meanwhile, gets a nice
dose of vitamins with just enough sunlight. Getting the right amount of sunlight give your body Vitamin D,
which is an essential element in your body’s nutrition. Vitamin D provides several health benefits, including
bone health, lowering blood pressure, and increasing brain activity. Getting some vitamin D also lowers the
risk of getting diseases like heart disease and diabetes.
body.
Other than getting a healthy dose of vitamins, getting sunlight also energizes your body. Melatonin is the
hormone in your body that regulates your sleep cycle. Getting sunlight signals the brain and the pineal gland
to stop the production of melatonin. This will normalize a person’s sleep cycle, while also giving them a nice
energy boost during the day. With this in mind, going out to get some sun on your work or school break
gives your body that needed energy boost to get you through the rest of the day.
body.
Improves fertility
Melatonin is not only a hormone that regulates the body’s sleep cycle, but it also boosts fertility. Getting
sunlight is helps increase the overall length of being fertile by a number of years. For the males, sun
exposure boosts testosterone levels. This is one of the reasons why the summer season is a great time to
start a family.
Mood Lifter
Not getting enough sunlight can cause your body to have SAD, or Seasonal Affective Disorder. SAD is a
form of depression caused by the lack of sunlight, and is very common for people who work long hours
inside an office with no natural light. If you notice you’ve been feeling down and sluggish lately, try going
outside during the day to give your body a healthy dose of serotonin, a hormone that lifts up your mood.
Even with all the benefits above, it is important to protect your skin when going out for long periods of time.
Applying sunscreen on your skin protects you from UV rays which can harm your skin. The best times to go
out and get sunlight without risking skin cancer are during the early hours of the morning.
Just like how solar energy can power a home or business, sunlight gives a good amount of benefits to your
body. Normalizing your sleep schedule, getting an energy boost, increased fertility, and boosting your
overall mood… the benefits make it really worth it to get out and get sunlight every now and then. Don’t
forget the sunscreen!

● Alternative Energy – Countries such as Sweden and Denmark are already utilizing alternative energy to lessen the
dependency on fossil fuels. The availability of sunlight and wind makes it easier for people to switch to renewable
energy. In the Philippines, solar and wind energy are two renewable energies that are being utilized in both
residential and commercial establishments.
● Vertical Farming – Vertical farming is a modern take to traditional farming. Food is produced in vertically stacked
layers, to save space. It also aims to lessens the use of water and use of toxic pesticides.
Green technology is all about being practical and sustainable — being able to conserve and protect our
natural resources so we can have a better future and preserve enough resources for the future generation
as well.

We are after lower cost of energy; it’s the prime reason why people hire us to install solar panels. Half to total electric cost reduction is our goal and some of our
clients no longer have an electric bill.
Saying No to coal however is not easy. For years the Philippines was addicted to “cheap power” from coal generation and little after thought was given on
burning millions of tons of coal with no end. In 2008, about 24% of the energy needs came from coal plants and we are now edging at 50% coal power. This
addiction has caused massive poisoning of our lands, air, and even ground water for host communities, not to mention Global warming contribution.
While other forms of polluting fuels are taxed by the government, Diesel and Gasoline which is mainly paid by working class Filipinos at six pesos per liter, Coal
the million ton dinosaur was only taxed a mere ten centavos per kilo at a fixed rate set in 1977 benefiting the privileged few who own a coal plant or mine.
Now the Philippine Senate voted to tax it to a more defensible P300 per ton by 2020. Why we hate coal so much, there is no man made structure that is more
efficient in polluting than a colossal coal power plant.
While other countries have found out that burning coal will spell ruin to their citizens’ health, the Philippines Energy plan is to use more coal generation like an
unrepentant drug addict with 30 more coal plants planned in the near future.
With the 80% drop in solar panel prices the past 5 years, Coal is no longer the “cheapest” form of energy and they may be stranded assets before they even
operate.
Coal generation like all fossil fuel plants has pass through cost provisions that guarantee profits for coal plant owners that Juan De La Cruz would either pay
through pocket book or medical bills for affected communities.
So next year, yes power rates are going to go up. Perhaps the wise men of energy policy can just give renewables a chance by removing red tape roadblocks
as increasing energy supply decreases prices.
Nonetheless, we realize that many of us are not sheep. Solaric is about empowering people to say No to coal and give economically viable options, solar on
rooftops that produce power less than P2 a kWh.
If you want to save more energy with less money or simply a fan of clean environment, put a solar system on your roof. We give you a choice of paying for an
electric bill or owning your own mini solar power plant.

With the introduction of alternative energy sources and the reduction of solar panel prices in the Philippines, our
country is on its way to being powered by renewable energy. In fact, several establishments in our country have become
green businesses in many ways, including in terms of their source of energy. As they should.
You may ask why so. While fossil fuels (oil, coal, and natural gas) help power the world, they are extremely harmful in
many ways. Extraction alone through drilling and mining negatively impact not only the environment, but also the health
of workers and those living in the surrounding areas. Waters around the world are extremely polluted from the numerous
oil spills to the point where a large portion of marine life is severely affected.
Another big concern are the greenhouse gas emissions when fossil fuels are burned. In our country, air pollution is
extremely evident in the Philippines as smoke emitted from vehicles, public transportation, and factories make it difficult
to breathe. It also pollutes rain water and creates something known as ‘acid rain’. In China, a thick layer of smog would
sometimes cover the country’s capital due to coal combustion. Unbelievable!
These are just a few of the reasons why renewable energy such as wind, solar, geothermal should replace fossil fuels in
time. Here are other reasons why it’s bound to happen sooner or later.
Because we use so much energy derived from fossil fuel, plus the fact that they are non-renewable, these sources are
finite. As of late it’s already getting harder and harder to new reserves of fossil fuels. While it’s unlikely to run out within
the next couple of years, it definitely will not last us forever.
That being said, renewable energy still has a long way to go before it becomes the primary source of energy of people
all over the world. The important thing is that sitting around and waiting for the planet to save itself won’t do any of us
any good. You can start with small things like refraining from using plastic if there are other alternatives, recycling to
minimize trash, using energy-efficient alternatives to various items, and patronizing green businesses.

Gasoline-Powered Cars
Gasoline is being used to power vast quantity of internal combustion engines
throughout the world in various industries particularly the transport sector. Several
grades of octane rating produce gasoline. It is known to contain benzene and other
carcinogens.
Today, most cars are being powered by gasoline and petrol. Diesel is one of the most
commonly used gasoline to power a vehicle, as designed by car manufacturers from
across the world. Unfortunately, both these fuels are causing air pollution and directly
being blamed for contributing to global warming and climate change. One specific
negative cause of these emissions is smog, which can be seen in places that uses
high amounts of fuel like China.
The need for a more environment-friendly car has been expressed due to the
dangers being brought by the harmful effects of petrol and gasoline. Currently,
several vehicles have been manufactured using alternative fuels like ethanol and
natural gas in order to answer this need.
Solar-Powered Cars

Solar-Powered Cars vs. Gas-Powered Cars | Solar Panels Philippines | Solaric
Makers of solar cars combine the technology being used in the automotive,
alternative energy, bicycle, and aerospace industries.
Furthermore, these vehicles highly depend on a solar array which utilizes
photovoltaic cells to be able to convert the light coming from the sun into electricity.
There are different kinds of solar arrays which can be used on a car; they include
horizontal, vertical, adjustable, integrated, trailer, and remote. An optimization
between vehicle mass, aerodynamic resistance, power output, and practical
considerations need to be considered in choosing the solar array geometry.
More is being done for the development of solar arrays in the future. For example,
they are being made to be thinner and more flexible.
Other solar-powered cars are using gallium arsenide solar cells or silicon solar cells
instead of solar arrays.

When you live in a busy country like the Philippines, the solar system and its vastness may not come to mind all the time.
Especially when you’re caught up dealing with big tasks, it’s easy to forget just how big the universe really is. However, just
feeling the heat outside or looking up to the sky could quickly remind us of that.
The sun is natural wonder that gives us so much solar energy for our life on earth (and renewable energy) to flourish. With such
benefits to the earth, it’s a shame that it’s existence is often taken for granted. Here’s a list of fun facts about the sun that you
probably didn’t know… or just forgot about.
It’s Nuclear
Well, not the sun per se. The nuclear part of it is energy of the Sun’s core which is nuclear fusion. This is produced when 4
hydrogen nuclei combine and form into 1 helium nucleus.
Key Takeaway
While not all the bases were covered in this article, these fun facts show that the sun truly is a natural marvel. It makes you
wonder how it came to be! Regardless of how this happened, we should all be thankful that man was ingenuous enough to
learn how to harness its energy. You can see it with the prevalence of solar systems in the Philippines. With such a renewable

2014
In 2014, SM North Edsa (Quezon City) became the world’s largest solar-powered mall. This gigantic mall has 5,760 solar
panels and 60 inverters outfitted on its parking building, enough power to energize 1000 households. The 1.5-MW plant’s
capacity is expected to operate for the next 25 years and predictable to offset an approximated 40,000 tons of carbon dioxide
emission, which is about equivalent to planting 200,000 trees.
Manuel L. Quezon University (Quiapo, Manila) also begun using solar power by installing 320 solar panels on its rooftop. The
solar panels can produce about 96 kilowatts of electricity. The solar project can lower the school’s electricity consumption by
20% for its continuous operation. Moreover, MLQU is the Manila’s first solar-powered university.
2015
Currently, Robinsons Palawan runs its elevators, escalators, and light fixtures with the 4,710 solar panels installed on its
rooftop. The solar panels can cover about 20% of the mall’s electricity consumption. Apart from its Palawan branch, Robinsons
will also set up solar panels on three of its branches in Visayas.
2016
The Calatagan Solar Farm has been starting to generate power last March 2016. The solar farm is a 63.3 MW solar power
plant located in Calatagan, Batangas. It has 200,000 panels and has a 160 hectares (500 acres) land area. Instead of being
used for growing crops such as corn or rice, the land was converted to a large solar farm to generate enough energy to provide
power to the whole western Batangas. With continuous operation (over three decades), the solar farm is expected to offset
beyond 1 million tons of carbon dioxide emission. This is equivalent to planting over 5 million trees! Calatagan Solar Farm is
considered to be the largest solar facility in the country to date.
On March 2016, 3 more solar power plants have begun to be operational. These are the 135-MW solar power plant in Negros

Many have looked into solar panel installation in the Philippines and many more have considered switching to solar energy. The reason
for this is the many financial benefits it offers.
Solar energy has been known to reduce a single household’s electric bill by a significant amount. There are also instances when a
property’s value increased due to it being equipped with panels. When you factor these benefits in with the current price of solar panels,
you can see why they’re worth the investment. Not only does it save you money, it also helps you profit in the long run.
However, solar energy has more benefits beyond these monetary ones. Benefits that people rarely talk about because they’re hard to
quantify and no one can put a price on them. If you wish to know about these intangible benefits, then we suggest you continue reading.
Key Takeaway
When you’re considering solar panel installation in the Philippines, it’s so easy to think about its tangible benefits and use that to weigh
things out. In fact, your first thought is probably how solar energy can ease your finances and how can you make your money back after
switching to solar energy?
While that’s all good and wise, solar energy offers far greater benefits than that. Beyond these tangible and quantifiable benefits are
intangible ones that most people fail to recognize. And most of it affects our environment and health—things that are far more important
than money.

With all the available low-cost solar panels in the Philippines, going solar is definitely within reach. There
are different types that cater to different preferences of people. Knowing which of type of solar panel suits
your need will enable you to choose the right solar panel for your home and can make the most out of it.
Here are some of the types of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels to guide you on right type of solar panels that
you will install on the roof of your house.
and watches since it produces less efficient solar cells. However, with recent innovations in manufacturing
this type of solar cell (called stacking), amorphous solar cell can produce high efficient solar cells by
combining several layers of silicon cells. The advantages of using an amorphous solar cell are 1.)
it’s flexible since the layer of its silicon is thin, and 2.) they are effective in low light levels.
Monocrystalline
Monocrystalline solar PV cell is the most efficient type of solar PV cell because despite its small
appearance, it can produce the same amount of electricity that is produced by its counterpart solar cells.
This type of solar PV cell is made from thin wafers of silicon, which is cut from an artificially grown crystal,
thus, making it the most expensive among all the types of solar PV cell.
The monocrystalline rod is removed from melted silicon and it is sliced into thin plates, producing smaller
solar cells. The production of this solar cell type guarantees to produce high efficient silicon. Moreover, a
monocrystalline solar PV cell works best in bright and cool condition.
Polycrystalline
Just like the monocrystalline solar cell, a polycrystalline solar cell is made from thin wafers of silicon, which
is cut from an artificially grown crystal. However, this type of solar cell is made from several interlocking
silicon crystals, thus, making them cheaper to produce compared to its counterpart. Moreover,
polycrystalline solar panel has been the most popular choice among consumers.
Whether your reasons for going solar are economic, environmental, or personal, going solar is definitely a
good move. Spend some researching and learning which types of solar PV panels will suit your needs
before buying your solar panels.

Solar panels have been an effective and eco-friendly means of manufacturing energy for a while now. While
solar panel prices in the Philippines can be quite expensive, solar panels are a great investment and can be a
potential source of income.
The effectivity and efficiency of solar panels are determined by the solar cells it is made of. All types of solar
cells can absorb sunlight and generate electricity, but each one has its advantages and disadvantages, as well
as the ideal situations they should be used in.
Here are the 3 kinds of solar cells:
Advantages:
● Monocrystalline solar panels are made of the highest-grade silicon, resulting in them having the highest efficiency rates
(15% to 20%).
● They are space efficient. Since they output the most power, fewer panels are needed to generate energy compared to
the others.
● These solar panels provide a better aesthetic for homes because their cells are darker and evenly colored.
Disadvantages:
● Monocrystalline solar panels are the most expensive among the types of solar cells.
Advantages:
● Polycrystalline silicon costs less and is easier to produce—there is less waste silicon compared to monocrystalline.
● Polycrystalline solar panels have slightly lower tolerance than monocrystalline panels. Solar panels generate more
energy with more sunlight, but heat can affect the performance of a panel and affect its lifespan.
Disadvantages:
● They are not as efficient as monocrystalline solar panels (poly-Si cells have efficiency rates of 13% to 16%).
Polycrystalline solar panels have lower silicon purity compared to monocrystalline, which means that a larger area will
need to be covered to produce the same amount of power that a smaller number of monocrystalline solar panels can
generate.
Advantages:
● Mass production of thin-film solar cells is simple.
● High temperatures affect them less than mono or polycrystalline solar cells.
Disadvantages:
● They aren’t suited for residential situations. Due to having less efficiency (7% to 13%) than both crystalline-type cells,
thin-film solar cells require a considerably large area to operate on.
● Larger costs on PV equipment such as support structures and cables.
● Thin-film solar cells tend to degrade faster than mono or polycrystalline solar cells.
Key Takeaway
Solar panels are excellent in generating energy and cutting down electricity costs, but there is a right type of
solar cell for different situations. When buying solar cells, you must make sure to consider all of your
concerns, such as budget and location, in order to avoid wasting precious time and resources.

There are many homes and buildings that use solar panels in the Philippines. The
price for these systems is worth it when you can harness the powerful energy of the
sun and turn it into electricity for, say, your air conditioner. Talk about turning the
tables around!
However, it’s important that you know the just price of a solar panel in the country.
That way, you won’t let the heat cloud your judgment when you’re buying a solar
system. If you’re not sure how judge the price of solar panels in the Philippines, then
keep these following guidelines in mind when you start canvassing.
Ask Around
This one is a very simple tip: you can simply ask your friends who have solar systems
installed. They have gone through the rigorous process that you will be doing through
and they would know the just price of a solar panel. Philippine residents can definitely
use this tip because the climate has already prompted many to install their own solar
system.
25-Year Warranty
With any big investment that promises it will last a long time – such as a solar panel –
you need a guarantee that this will be seen through. This comes in the form of a
warranty. For solar panels and systems, this should last for roughly around 25 years.
But you must also keep in mind that for a warranty to be honored, the manufacturer
must still be operating. Thus, you shouldn’t buy a solar panel if its manufacturer has
gone out of business or it doesn’t have a good track record.
Test Certification
Solar panels are tested in different ways. If they pass these certain tests, then these
panels also get certain certifications. Look out for these certifications so you know
exactly what tests a panel has passed. This is important because some are thorougly
tested by a third party while some are just self-assessments. An example of the
former is a TUV IEC 61215 certification, which indicates that an independent
laboratory has tested the panel and it has passed their specifics. Look for these kinds
of assurance to gauge whether the solar panel you wish to buy is reliable or not.
consider the pros and cons of buying many inefficient panels versus a few efficient
ones.
Wind Certification
Another certification you need to look at is the wind certification, especially you live in
an area with many strong gusts. The panels with this proven assurance have
mounting systems that are built to withstand cyclones. This will certainly be worth the
price of the solar panel since the Philippines is prone to storms.
Inverter Efficiency
Finally, you need to check the inverter. Basically, this is the device that converts the
energy from the panel into usable electricity. Thus, this absolutely has to be efficient
so you can quickly get your investment back.
Key Takeaway
The truth is, the price of solar panels in the Philippines – or anywhere else – will be…
well, pricey. After all, you will be investing in a complicated system that will save you
tons of money in the future. What you need to look for is the solar panel that will
return your investments back to you quickly, so you need to find that ones that are
efficient and reliable. Follow the guidelines above and you surely will.

may compete internationally again.
The Bangkarwayan
Perhaps one of the most unorthodox vehicles to be ever created, the Bangkarwayan is a solar powered vehicle
created and owned by UP Professor Benjamin Mangubat. The car was made out of indigenous materials like
rattan and bamboo, and had a dark brown color scheme to make it look more “retro”. It harnesses power from
the solar panels installed on the roof. The unusual car was made to be able to navigate on land and water, due
to the flotation devices and boat propeller attached to the vehicle. It took six years for Mangubat to complete the
vehicle, which has now become of the more popular sights in Manila.
While solar power continues to become more abundant and popular in the country, more companies would look
into the possibility of producing solar-powered vehicles like cars, tricycles, buses, and trains in the near future.
With more solar-powered vehicles roaming around in the country, it is possible to see a clean future where the
use of renewable energy would be the norm. Do you see yourself driving or riding a solar-powered vehicle in
the future?

climate• change
Climate change refers to the change in weather patterns. However, the
change is not temporary but rather for a longer period of time. It could be
an alteration in weather conditions or an alteration in their time period –
meaning a particular weather condition could last longer than it should be.
There are many possible causes of climate change; they include volcanic
eruptions, plate tectonics, solar radiation, and biotic processes. However,
the primary cause of it is being identified as global warming, which is
being caused by men.

greenhouse gases
A greenhouse gas is found in the Earth’s atmosphere. It emits and
absorbs radiant energy that is in the thermal infrared range. Its whole
process is the primary cause of greenhouse effect.
Ozone, nitrous oxide, methane, carbon dioxide, and water vapor are the
main greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Without these gases, our
planet’s average temperature will drop to -18 °C, instead of being at 15 °C.
Other planets also experience greenhouse effects – they include Titan,
Mars, and Venus.

Earth’s
environmental behavior
In general, Earth’s environmental behavior is the behavior of humans
towards nature. Most of the time, this kind of behavior is being referred to
as “unsustainable.” This is because resources worldwide are depleting at
a fast rate. These resources are coming from different part of the
environment, such as air, seas, and land. These things are slowly
degrading as they cannot keep up sustaining people’s current way of living.
Unfortunately, most humans don’t believe that what they do daily is
affecting the environment. In fact, they do not feel connected to the planet,
which should be done in order to continuously preserve the different
resources.

Earth Day
Earth Day is being celebrated on the 22nd day of April every year.
Essentially, it is the anniversary of the start of the Modern Environmental
Movement, which happened in 1970.
During that time, Americans could not care less about the environment, as
they emit more and more gas emissions. In fact, they had embraced the
smell of air pollution, comparing it to prosperity. All of this, then, led to their
awakening to environmental issues.
On April 22, 1970, people have gained consciousness as they put
environmental concerns at the forefront of their minds.

In the Philippines, solar systems are gaining popularity in the public eye. Not only because they provide a healthy alternative energy source,
but also because they offer tremendous impact to the environment and its inhabitants. Sustainability enthusiasts appreciate the fact that,
unlike fossil fuels, solar panels do not harm Mother Earth.
Learn more about the sustainable benefits of a solar system to the Philippines here:
As they draw their energy from the sun, they don’t risk depleting resources from the environment. Their abundant resource will always be
available and accessible across the world.
Key Takeaway
The lasting effects of greenhouse gas emissions are making people think that perhaps they need to start choosing renewable energy
options to power their homes and businesses. The Philippines is certainly one of the countries that want bring more awareness towards
solar energy—a source that will not be depleting soon and one that is very much environment-friendly.
Of course, many organizations from across the world are showing their support for this movement. In fact, the International Energy Agency
has published a 2014 assessment predicting that by 2050, photovoltaic and thermal energy systems could very well be the largest source of
global electricity in private and public sectors.

Environmental Concern
The production of fossil fuel does more harm to the environment in comparison to solar energy. The Philippines recognizes this; Filipinos
are starting to realize that there are environmental consequences when using non-renewable energy sources. The emissions they
caused will result in worse conditions for the planet, but thankfully solar energy does not imitate this kind of energy production.
Solar panels – as well as other forms of alternative energy – do not release harmful carbon dioxide emissions beyond what is generated
during the production of the equipment used for it. The people, who would want to scale back harmful greenhouse gas production, turn
this alternative energy source and maximize the solar arrays for the good that they do for the environment.
Increased Popularity
The broader market reach does its share in increasing the popularity of the solar energy source. The solar panel popularity has surged
over the past few years. Expanding solar power use does its part in improving the awareness of the consumers in the market and this
results in more capital for the development of cheaper and more efficient panels for everyone.
Net Metering
In addition to saving money from electricity costs, installing a solar power system can also allow the consumers to make money off of
the power that their system generates.
Net metering is responsible for this and it is a feature of solar energy that ultimately benefits its user. When they understand that a solar
power system will generate more power than used by the residential or business establishment, they can sell the extra energy to the
grid. Or if this is not a feasible option, they can also credit the power bill and put it toward next month’s usage. The potential to make a
profit by selling power to the grid can also allow the consumers to alleviate the energy crisis beyond their own home or business.
Key Takeaway
More than the allocation of costs from the installation of solar power in your home, it is also a way to save the environment. Knowing this
will bring more long-term effects not just on the environment that you are used to, but for everyone as well.
If you consider using solar energy for your electricity production, you can receive these advantages and more.

With generous grants, tax incentives, and the falling prices of solar panels in the Philippines, industries and businesses of all types are
in the best position to reap the benefits of solar energy.
Agricultural operations, commercial businesses, and manufacturing industries alike can save on their electricity costs by installing a
solar power system. In addition, they can also reduce their tax burdens as well as get ahead of any potential energy price increase. Here
are 3 examples of how these industries can benefit from solar panels.
Agriculture
Common agricultural operations in the Philippines such as rice farms, hog farms, or poultry farms use a lot of electricity. Typically, these
https://solaric.com.ph/blog/solar-panels-benefit-industries/ (2 of 4)10/4/2018 7:51:15 AM
Philippine Solar Panel Prices Benefit Industries | Solaric Blog
operations also have a lot of open roofs and floor spaces available that get plenty of sunlight.
Take a poultry farm for example. The farmers must maintain a consistent temperature throughout the year so that the birds can live and
grow comfortably. This is achieved by running electric fans and sometimes even temperature control systems; either way, it costs
electricity to run. Installing a solar power system on the roofs of these facilities allows the poultry farmers to switch to a clean source of
energy.
Also, depending on the location of the farm, the farmers may receive generous grants and tax incentives from the government—making
the switch to solar power a very sound business decision.
Manufacturing
The entire process of manufacturing typically uses a substantial amount of electricity, especially if they operate seven days a week. This
makes it a suitable candidate for solar energy. Factories and manufacturing plants usually operate in large buildings with ample roof
space which is perfect for installing solar panels.
Manufacturers and factory owners that make the switch to solar energy stand to save thousands of pesos on electricity costs over time.
This can also be a way for you to hedge against inevitable energy price increases, ensuring that your company remains effective but
competitive. Similar to agricultural applications, manufacturing industries are also eligible to receive certain tax incentives depending on
their location.
Commercial
Commercial businesses such as department stores, office buildings, and cold storages can also potentially see a similar return on their
investment. In fact, a commercial business that is open during Sundays (e.g. shopping malls, auto dealerships, etc.) can also greatly
benefit from solar.
These businesses are perfectly suited for solar power because they typically have plenty of roof space available, which is usually
exposed to a lot of sunlight. Large, commercial businesses require a large amount of electricity for lights, air conditioning, and other
utilities in order to best serve their customers. Switching to solar can help curb some of these costs in order to reduce your expenses
and increase revenue.
Key Takeaway
Industries are quickly learning about how using a clean and renewable source of energy like solar power can help their business
become more energy independent as well as cut costs.
As the prices of solar panels here in the Philippines become more economical, companies of all shapes and sizes in almost every
industry are now making solid moves towards a more eco-friendly and brighter future.

weight to your baggage. Sometimes it’s only when you’re desperate to charge your phone in an emergency
when you realize how important it is to really have a powerbank in your bag at all times. Don’t wait for that to
happen.
There are many different kinds of affordable powerbanks available in the market today. If you’re looking for
one that is worth your money while being environmentally friendly at the same time, then a solar powerbank
is what you’re looking for.
It’s portable
A powerbank is portable, meaning it can be easily packed in any bag. Many models are as slim and light as
your phone. Solar powerbanks offer you the same portability as well, while also being built as sturdy as
possible. Most solar powerbank models come in silicone rubber casings so it’s safe from most forms of
contact with any hard surface. You won’t be worrying it getting damaged if you have a lot of items in your
bag.
As mentioned earlier, one of the perks of having a powerbank is being able to charge anywhere. You can
charge your phone or tablet wherever you are, whether you’re in a car, boat, plane, or even while walking.
Depending on the model, some powerbanks can offer hours of charging, which can help your phone last a
whole day. While a normal powerbank requires you to plug it in once it’s empty, a solar powerbank can be
charged through the power of sunlight. In a tropical country like the Philippines, this can be no problem as
there is hardly any shortage of sunlight for us.
It’s environmentally-friendly
Perhaps the most important benefit of having a solar powerbank is that it is environmentally-friendly. Having
the ability to recharge the powerbank without the need of plugging it into a socket means that you are
saving a good amount of electricity. All you need is some sunlight! There are also models that can be
charged just by exposing it to fluorescent light. By not using electricity to charge your powerbank and
phone, you are already reducing your carbon footprint without effort.
A powerbank is one of the most essential items to bring during work or school. It is especially useful when
going out of town or out of the country. Having it with you at all times ensures you that your gadgets can be
charged up at a moment’s notice. A solar powerbank gives you all these, plus being able to charge them
outdoors. In case you’re interested, there are other solar-powered gadgets you might want to consider
having as well.

You have probably heard or read about how solar panels are not at all effective at converting the energy of the sun to electricity.
This statement has always been used by those who are critical of solar technology, saying how installing solar panels here in the
Philippines does not live up to its potential.
All of these are simply untrue. There is a reason why solar is one of the fastest-growing new sources of energy. In fact, millions of
homeowners all around the world have already installed solar panels in their homes. Today, solar energy is mature and ready
enough to power the grid and our homes.
This is not to say that there is no longer room for improvement, however. While it’s true that the most efficient solar panels that are
commercially available can reliably convert about 24% of the energy of the sun, it is also true that traditional solar cells that are
silicon-based only have a maximum theoretical efficiency of 30%.
New technologies are being developed to take the efficiency of these panels up to 50% and more; some of them are only a few
years away from being commercially available. To provide more explanation, here are 3 ways solar panels are becoming more
efficient:
The corners of the solar cells are cut off which leaves empty spaces. Today, solar cell manufacturers are finding new ways to
reduce the gaps or eliminate it altogether. Essentially, this would allow the cells to produce more power.
Key Takeaway
While the technology for solar panels has been around for over 150 years, it is still being developed—albeit faster than before.
Solar panels are becoming more efficient, smarter, and cheaper. For homeowners, the choices for solar energy solutions have
never been more diverse.
Solar technology has continued to improve at a breakneck pace. Mass production and swift solar panel installation here in the
Philippines have made it more appealing as a financial investment, paving the way for the next great leap in technology!

Unsurprisingly, many of us already know that solar panels generate the most power during clear days with
abundant sunshine. Typically, solar panels can produce 10 to 25% of their rated capacity on a cloudy or
rainy day (depending on the density of the clouds for that day, the exact amount may vary). The amount of
energy produced can also vary depending on the type of solar panel installation in your Philippine home as
certain kinds are better at receiving diffused light.
During rainy or cloudy days, ultraviolet rays still reach the surface of the earth in abundance. In fact, if you
have ever gotten sunburn at the beach even though the sun isn’t out, you have probably already
experienced this firsthand. And while there are some solar cells that are in development which can capture
UV rays, these are not yet available on the market.
Either way, you will still be able to generate power on a cloudy or rainy day even with a standard solar
panel. Here’s how you can make the most of them during the rainy season.
Did you know that Germany, a country that gets only about as much sunlight as the state of Alaska, has
successfully installed solar panels that produce about 25 gigawatts of energy, which is about half of the
supply of the entire world?
Solar panels actually work best when it’s not too hot because of the electronics inside them. A city that
experiences extreme heat might find that their solar panels are less efficient, so as somebody who is living
in the Philippines, you should have nothing to worry about.
Key Takeaway
The bottom line is you can still make the most of your solar panels even when it is raining. But while energy
production is going to be somewhat limited, this is not going to matter in the bigger picture. What matters
most is how much sunlight you actually get all year-round.
Cloudy and rainy days will come and go, but for the most part, the odd overcast day here and there is not
going to affect the return on investment of your solar panels installations in the Philippines.

In terms of the use of renewable energy locally, the big question is this: is it worth getting a solar panel in the Philippines? The
price may be worth the investment, but how effective can it be in a country with long rainy seasons? After all, how can we expect
them to create energy with sunlight when clouds are blocking the sun? Well, that could change very soon because there are new
types of solar panels in development that are designed to get energy from raindrops as well!
Chinese Design
This innovation in renewable energy technology is in development thanks to Chinese scientists. They have developed a way to
harness the energy of rain water and integrated it into a solar panels. In this new design, they used a thin layer of graphene to coat
the bottom side of the solar cell. It’s this graphene that can interact with the positively charged ions that can be found in rain drops.
So when the rain pours, it will be a simple matter of flipping over the panel to get renewable energy even during the rainy season.
Still in Development
Although it is still much less efficient than most standard solar panels, the technology can become an all-in-one solution for
renewable energy by being able to provide it during any sort of weather. It is certainly a viable option for countries rainy countries,
such as the UK and the Philippines. The price of the solar panel will definitely be worth it when households shave off a lot of
expenses from their electricity bill during the rainy months. For now, we have net metering to rely on in times when the sun doesn’t
shine.

provides clean and dependable electricity and bankable savings. Rooftop Solar in the Philippines has a
proven sub 5 year Return on Investment.
Like all Investments there are risks and mitigating risks is part of responsible ownership and reasonable
expectations of returns with good maintenance. Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems offer a large scale of perks,
which range from financial savings to environmental advantages and decreased grid energy consumption.
They are certainly being enjoyed by those who have solar panels installed on their premises. These PV
systems are safe, reliable, and pose a minimum fire risk. It is an extremely rare occurrence for solar PVs to
cause a fire if proper safeguards are adhered to.
Safety is defined as no accident. Reputable installers go out of their way to be safe while doing solar
installations and ensuring good workmanship is kept in delivering high powered solar systems, annual visual
inspection is recommended to check if anything has gone loose, and connections are nice and tight. An
important factor in fire safety and site safety is its installation and maintenance. Below, you will a few tips that
can ensure that your solar system remains safe from fire risks.
professors and industry mentors. An informal worker with a screwdriver may not know the importance of
Ohms law, the principles of wire sizing and use indoor speaker wire in the outdoors because it has polarity
markings.
Source: Pinterest
As the owner of the solar PV installation, the system should be properly utilized but not overused. Replace it if
it is nearing the end of its lifespan to avoid further risk of fire and electrocution. A quality installation is
expected to provide 25 years of reliable power but annual inspections are ideal to spot unforeseen hazards
and to make sure external forces from weather, vermin or whatever may be is mitigated.
Key Takeaway
Solar PV systems are not generally known as a large source of fire hazard. Coming from a reliable installation
provider, these tips should just be measures that can be undertaken in the event of an occurrence.
Nevertheless, it still pays to be careful.

You’re probably wondering how solar power and solar systems from the Philippines fit in with disasters and resilience and we understand the confusion. We’ll get there, though, so just stay with us.
The Filipino people have always been known for their resilience. We’ve been hit by disaster after disaster – earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and typhoons – and at some point, we’ve learned to cope. We smile and laugh in the face of devastation. We exhibit kindness to our fellowmen.
We become united to help our country stand back up.
The way we brush off terrible situations and constantly look at the bright side is nothing short of admirable but also equally troubling. In our attempt to power through, we fail to analyze our situation and find out why these disasters are happening. As a result, we move on without ever
learning anything valuable.
On November 2018, it will have been 5 years since the Philippines was hit by one of the strongest and most devastating typhoons to ever make landfall – Typhoon Yolanda. As destructive and traumatizing as it was, Yolanda snapped us out of our delusion. We couldn’t just brush it off
like any other disaster. We had to know why it happened and how to prevent it from happening again. Finally, we learned.
Dozens of lessons were gotten from this devastating attack and the most important ones are listed below.
Key Takeaway
It’s unfortunate that it took such a destructive and devastating typhoon for us to learn our lessons, but by now it’s way too late for regrets. Yolanda has already taken millions of lives, so hopefully, the lessons we learned from it can help us save just as much and more.
Communities should be able to realize the true worth of renewable energy. The possible effects it can have on our environment and the ways it can help those that have been struck by disaster. Solar energy, in particular, has been proved useful in such instances, which is why people
have started to invest more in it.
There are many organizations and humanitarian actors that are ready to help those interested in solar power and solar systems in the Philippines. They are always ready to inform the public about solar panels and energy. Families can easily seek them out in order to become more
equipped to face and survive disasters.

Philippines and a main unit that has its own LED flashlight with 2 1A USB ports. It can also be charged with a micro USB charger,
which is found almost anywhere.

communication is dependent on how much cell phone battery you have while lighting depends on how much batteries you got.
In layman’s speak it’s enough energy to get your cell phone working and yet have some more for lights at night. We operated for 6
weeks in post-Yolanda Tacloban so we know a thing or two about electrical apocalypse living.
Sometimes, power won’t come back for days or months, if a super typhoon wrecks your home/province. Endless charging even
with a diminutive 3W panel will give the user power, long after your sari-sari store ran out of candles and batteries.
At Solaric, we design things to last, and this LiTe has built-in Lithium Ion batteries that could be recharged hundreds of times.
We give a ONE year warranty on this product. The only maintenance it requires is that you at least remember to charge it every
three months or simply use it plugged into a cellphone charger.
The cost of this item is P1500 each, P1350 for 2 or more orders, or P1200 for 6 or more orders. Our dealers and NGOs buy this by
the case as they are assured of a quality product that is field tested and backed by our no-nonsense warranty.
The Solaric LiTe makes a good addition to any home emergency kit as working cellphones and lights are essential survival tools.
Our LiTes are found as raffle tables in our Solar 101 and 202 seminars.
We did find a very similar product being sold at the mall for P3500+. This is a high quality solar product that is using real rated
batteries and solid design logic. There may be cheaper imitations but nothing like this for the price.
Nothing but the best for our customers.
If you want to buy one, please call us at 5040092 or at 09178603141 (Globe). You may email us at info@solaric.com.ph. You may
pick up at our Makati office in JP Rizal between Rockwell and EDSA beside Caltex Gas station.

In our quest to make our air conditioners run on solar without batteries in 2013, we made our electric meter stop spinning legally
and asked Meralco to implement what was then an unknown energy program protected by RA 9513, a national energy law with
Net Metering provision. It is when a homeowner or a business owner will be able to sell back excess solar electricity without
batteries or need for separate wiring. So, we pushed hard to have one of the first Solar Integrated Circuits to sell back to the grid—
our secret sauce known as SOLARIC and replicated thousands of times all over the Philippines.
Using solar panels priced in the Philippines made economic sense then and a slam dunk decision now. But what really makes us
tick is that we were really masters in analyzing electrical bills, finding ways to improve operations, and applying the optimum
amount of solar so a business can save, thrive, and dream of powering any electrical appliance with renewable energy. Close
friends and relatives wanted this SOLARIC contraption as it stops the electric meter on its tracks and we were booked solid to put
it on roofs to run air cons. We were about to do our first paying job with our first commercial batch of solar panels when Typhoon
Yolanda happened. People in civil defense and relief work asked if we can make a “solar generator” because of horror stories of
infants dying on incubators without power and of people who cannot be contacted as there is no energy for a cellphone charge.
These scenarios are something we simply could not ignore, and throwing a few bills to Red Cross didn’t cut it; we felt the urge to
act.
Life before business and country before money are something that we hold dear in what we do. Without reservation we found
ourselves driving a truckload of solar panels priced in the Philippines and dozens of donated Motolite batteries into a power dead
Tacloban, Leyte. We brought with us a list of all the places where we need to install emergency solar—places such as a relief
center, a public school, a clinic, and a pediatrician. We refused to charge a profit and installed solar charging stations well below
cost because we refuse to profit from misfortune.
For six weeks, we were literally powered by smiles, SPAM, repacked relief goods, and cries of relief when we removed the curse
of darkness for the Yolanda survivors.
What we saw in those six weeks is something that we wish no one will ever see or smell, but we also saw the beautiful and
indomitable spirit of the Filipino to smile, laugh, and survive despite what happens. It changed our psyche and views on climate
change.
Today, we are still as hard charging as ever; Turn On the Sun is what we do.
Simply put, we are known as the solar company that challenged the status quo, counted to deliver power in mission impossible,
and now give the Filipinos a choice to use electricity-sourced from a monopoly owned coal plant or from a Juan De La Cruz-owned
solar panel on top of his house.

Uncharted Territory
According to the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO), the record breaking heat of 2016 has been continuing in 2017. In
2016, the heat was caused by carbon dioxide emissions from human activity. This along with a strong El Niño is what caused
the all time high heat.
However, even with the death of El Niño, the extreme temperatures have continued in 2017. Because of this, the director of
WMO, David Carlson, described this year to be “uncharted territory” as it looks like the world record for global temperature will
be broken again in 2017.
The oceans also suffered from the heat with up to 50% mortality rate in the Great Barrier Reef of Australia and 75% of the
biggest reef in Japan experiencing coral bleaching. To clarify, coral bleaching occurs when the corals get stressed out due to
extreme heat, and become in danger of dying.
Scientific research has shown that the last time the world was this warm was 115,000 years ago. The most dangerous
greenhouse gasses, methane, carbon dioxide, and nitrous oxide, are all rising at an alarming rate and will cause even more
severe global warming in the near future. The results include melting glaciers and ice sheets, causing a rise in sea levels and
the possibility of coastal cities becoming submerged.
https://solaric.com.ph/blog/global-warming-effects-2017/ (2 of 5)10/4/2018 7:57:22 AM
What Global Warming Has Done in 2017
According to Doha-based media company Al Jazeera, the NOAA’s National Center for Environmental Information has reported
three facts about the temperature in March 2017:
● It’s the 4th warmest month in a database that started in 1880
● It’s the 2nd warmest March, with March 2016 being the first
● The temperature during this month was 1.12C above the overall average temperature of the database.
In the same database, the warmest months were January 2016, February 2016, March 2016, March 2017, and February 2017.
From these figures, experts say that 2017 will challenge 2016 for the warmest year in recorded history.
Donald Trump
While multiple experts such as research scientist Jeffrey Kargel and climate change scientist David Reay have called for
immediate action to combat climate change, POTUS Donald Trump and his administration have chosen to cut climate change
research programs. In fact, he has recently chosen to withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement, wherein countries are
dedicate efforts to mitigate global warming.
Trump’s reasoning is that the terms in the agreement provide unfair environmental standards for American business. Because
of this, he demands for renegotiation before rejoining. However, said the leaders of France, Germany, and Italy have stated that
the terms in the accord are “irreversible”.
This greatly weakens that battle against global warming because America is the world’s second largest polluter; without their
participation in the Paris Climate Agreement, the world’s climate and global warming are less likely to see major improvements.
Clearly the world is in a dire state with human emissions of carbon dioxide causing the rise of global warming at a dangerous
rate. It will fall on China, the world’s leading polluter, to comply with the Paris Climate Agreement and each and every one of us
to make efforts in reducing our carbon footprint for us to have a fighting chance at saving the world.

Soil Erosion
Another primary cause of thermal pollution is constant soil erosion. By having the weight of the soil come
down on the body of water, it causes it the water levels to rise and be more exposed to the sun’s rays. It will
eventually lead to a rise in the temperature in the body of water, which will have the same effects when the
water is used as a cooling agent.
Deforestation
In addition to increasing the concentration of greenhouse gases in our world, deforestation can also lead to
thermal pollution. Cutting down the trees that surround a body of water takes away the shade that reduces
the water’s exposure to the sun’s rays. The disappearance of the trees will lead to a jump in the temperature
of the water, and will have the same effect as stated above.
Thermal pollution is real, and the world needs us to stop it – or at the very least, control it. Increasing
awareness and getting more local people involved in petitioning against its causes are key to prevention.
Consider joining a reputable environmental organization to learn more about how you can help save the
earth.

It is common knowledge that solar panel prices in the Philippines are quite high. They can be costly on average, but better solar panel
efficiency usually translates to a higher price. While they are expensive, they are also an effective means of saving money on electricity
expenses and are thus utilized in many houses in the Philippines.
With all the benefits solar panels offer, it can certainly be difficult to say no when you stumble upon a good deal. However, you should
keep in mind that “good” isn’t just about the price. You must also consider other factors such as the quality of the solar panels you’re
about to buy as well as the reliability and the reputation of the seller.
Nowadays, scammers are lurking practically everywhere. There isn’t a single market that is free of them, so regardless of what you’re
going to buy, you should always maintain a high level of awareness when interacting with the seller.
In this article, you will be reading about why you should only buy solar panels from legit sellers.
Key Takeaway
The price of solar panels may initially be intimidating, but they are that way because of the way they work and what they are made of.
While low prices may be attractive, they aren’t advisable, as there is a pretty good likelihood that the seller isn’t legit. The products they
offer may be cheaper, but they’re usually of less quality and should therefore be avoided.

If you stumbled upon this article, then chances are you’re thinking of having a solar system in the Philippines installed to
your home. Or you could just be someone who’s interested in solar power and wants to know everything about the
technology.
Either way, we’re sure you’ve heard of the lithium vs lead battery debate. This is an ongoing discussion in the solar
power industry and no one has yet to determine the clear winner. Typically, solar batteries are made using lead-acid
technology. But recently, big companies have opted to use Lithium-Ion.
You’d think that with companies switching sides, lithium would immediately be the winner, but that’s not quite the case.
Both have their own advantages and disadvantages.
In this article, we won’t be telling you which of the two is better – you will be the one to decide that. What we’re going to

Philippine Solar System Batteries: Lithium vs. Lead | Solaric Blog
give you is a fair comparison of the two battery types, so you can do the judging yourself.
Depth of Discharge
https://solaric.com.ph/blog/solar-storage-batteries-lithium-vs-lead/ (3 of 6)10/4/2018 8:00:26 AM
Philippine Solar System Batteries: Lithium vs. Lead | Solaric Blog
The depth of discharge (DOD) refers to how deep you can drain the battery during every cycle. The deeper the DOD,
the fewer discharge cycles and the shorter the service life. Lithium batteries can be discharged up to 95% and lead
batteries are limited to 50%.
What this means is that you can typically use lead batteries for a few hundred cycles and lithium batteries can be used
for 6,000 to 10,000+ cycles. To put it simply, lead batteries will have to be replaced up to 10 times more often as
compared to lithium batteries. This also signifies that lithium batteries have much longer lifespans than lead batteries.
Installation
Lead batteries are difficult to transport and install because of their sheer weight. There is no way to change this as the
materials used to make lead solar batteries are heavy. Because of this, people are turning to a lighter alternative which
is lithium solar batteries.
Lithium batteries are significantly lighter and can lower shipping costs by 80%. They also help cut installation costs by
large amounts. The low shipping and installation costs make lithium batteries much more appealing than lead batteries.
Safety
In terms of safety, both types are harmful to the human body and the environment, but lithium has a slight advantage.
Although lithium, in its purest form, is more harmful, technologies and safety mechanisms are employed to increase its
safety. At the moment, it is considered to be one of the safest batteries in the market.
Lead batteries, on the other hand, continuously produce electrolytes and they also produce hydrogen when
overcharged. On top of this, lead acid is a very dangerous substance. Despite being equipped with safety mechanisms
to reduce risks, lead batteries still lose to the lithium batteries in terms of safety.
Cost
We now tackle the final aspect to consider which is cost. Judging from how lithium batteries came out on top, it’s safe to
say that they’re the most expensive option. All its advantages and benefits don’t come for free, after all. Lithium
batteries cost 3 to 4 times more than any average lead battery. Moreover, lead battery prices are expected to
continuously decrease in the coming years.
Key Takeaway
If we’re keeping score, then lithium batteries would be the clear winner as it beat lead batteries 3 times out of 4.
However, it isn’t as easy as tallying up scores. Choosing the best solar storage battery still depends on several things
like intended use and purpose.
There are other things you need to take into account before you have your Philippine solar systems installed. If you still
can’t decide between the two, then don’t hesitate to discuss it with your provider. We’re sure they’ll be able to give you
proper advice!

There’s a myth that renewable energy, like the one you gain from installing panels
from solar systems in the Philippines, isn’t capable of providing baseload power.
But before we can discuss said myth, we first have to understand what baseload
power is and the different appliances that contribute to your home’s baseload.
In order to properly explain baseload power, we have to look at it in terms of
electricity demand. Electricity demand can be classified into two categories –
average and peak. Peak demand or peak load is achieved during times of high
electricity demand. Often, this happens during hot days when you need to turn your
A/Cs on for longer periods. It only happens in short burst and in even shorter
periods.
Average demand, on the other hand, is the lowest level of electricity demand
needed over a 24-hour period. In simpler terms, it is the amount of electricity
needed to meet the demands of occupying your house—this is your baseload
power. With that out of the way, we can now tackle the different appliances that
contribute to your baseload power.
Refrigerators
Refrigerators are the single biggest contributor to your baseload power. In order to
keep your food cold and fresh, your fridge has to be running 24/7. Even though
refrigerators have been made more energy efficient, they still use a lot of energy.
For the people who have multiple fridges or freezers, it is recommended that you
unplug unused ones in order to lower your baseload. You should also store food in
as few appliances as possible.
Lights
Another contributor to your baseload is your home’s lighting. Though it doesn’t take
up as much as your fridge and freezers, it doesn’t hurt to lower the cost to
illuminate your home.
You can do this by replacing incandescent bulbs with LEDs. They’re more available
now than before and are quite affordable. You can also make use of sensors,
timers, and occupancy based devices and adopt task lighting rather than whole-
room lighting.
Pool Pumps
Studies have actually found that homes with pools consume almost 50% more
electricity per year. Although this is partly because these homes are usually bigger
than average and have more occupants, it cannot be denied that a huge
percentage of their electricity bill is because of the pool. On average, pool operation
and management account for at least 17% of your bill.
Now, if you want this lowered, then you can set your pool pumps to function during
the morning when your solar panels are in use. That way, they won’t be using up
much energy and you can save a few extra pesos on your electricity.
Key Takeaway
The appliances listed above are the main contributors to your house’s baseload
power. And though these tips may seem too simple, they are guaranteed to be
effective.
As for the myth mentioned, you can just ignore it as it is not true. If you’re planning
to install solar panels from solar systems in the Philippines, then go for it.
Renewable energy can and will provide enough energy for your baseload and more!

Summer Time Care for Your Solar Panels Priced in the Philippines
What are the different ways you could care for your solar panels priced in the Philippines?
1. Allot space between the roof and the panels during installation
2. Regularly remove dirt build-up
3. Put up curtains to lessen the heat coming into your home
Summertime is the perfect season to harvest solar energy from the sun that can be converted to electrical energy.
During summer, there is bound to be an abundance of sunlight that can be harvested due to longer days which equates to extra hours rendered for harvesting sunlight.
Due to the global positioning of the Philippines, which is near the Earth’s equator, Filipinos definitely have an advantage with regards to the possible amount of sunlight harvested.
But, despite the reasonable price of solar panels in the Philippines, this fragile equipment should still be given extra TLC.
The solar panels should never be stepped on, because pressure – even slight pressure from stepping, leaning, or sitting on it, can cause micro cracks and future issues. Treat the solar panel as a fragile piece of
equipment, even if the glass is pretty tough and tempered.
The summer season may be the ideal period for optimum harvesting, but it also comes with a possible threat to the solar panels which is why there are several methods of caring for the solar panels that are highly
necessary for the summer period.
Fortunately, this article tackles the various ways you could care for your solar panels this summer time.
So, if you want to know how to defend your panels from the detrimental effects of high heat and humidity, then just keep on reading.
Key Takeaway
There are various ways to protect your solar panels priced in the Philippines this summer. Taking care of them can be as simple as putting up several thick curtains and regularly cleaning. Also, be sure that there is
adequate spacing between the panels and the roof, which should be done during the installation process.

Dig a Hole
Once you have found the ideal location, the next step is to dig a sizeable hole that would be
able to catch enough water you need. The ideal size would be around two feet long and wide,
and around a foot and a half deep. It is best if you have a shovel or spade with you so that
your digging would be faster.
Key Takeaway
Making a solar still is one fundamental survival skill that you need to have when you are going
outdoors, as you would be able to provide yourself with a solid liquid supply that would help
you survive. The next time you go out hiking or exploring in the vast wilderness, make sure
that you have this skill in your arsenal.

The relationship between the solar system and the Philippines is interesting, particularly during the months of March and April, when people experience a sudden rise in the temperature. It’s amazing how the Earth comes just a bit closer (relatively) to the Sun
during these months, yet the effects on us humans are extremely palpable.
With that being said, the summer season is regarded as a time for vacations, when families or friends come together and go on beaches, resorts, and other tourist spots to make the most out of their summer breaks or simply to beat the heat.
However, some prefer to stay indoors with their families and just enjoy the summer together. Parents, especially, make the most of this time of the year when their kids aren’t at school for five days a week.
If you’re looking for activities you can do with your children while they’re on vacation, you’ve come to the right place—continue reading to find out about solar-powered crafts that you can do with your kids this summer so you could make the most out of the Sun
and the summer break.

Solar Light
Have you ever wondered how amazing it would be if you were somehow able to acquire a small portion of the Sun’s light and use it as your own personal source of illumination? If you have, then there is good news for you: it’s completely possible and you can
do it with your kids.
Materials:
● Mason jars
● Solar path lights (be sure that they fit the top of the mason jars)
● Etching cream
Instructions:
1. Place the jar on a piece of cardboard or a covered table.
2. With gloves on, thickly coat the outside of the jar with etching cream and leave it for 60 seconds.
3. Wash the etching cream off.
After you have finished assembling, all that’s left is to leave it out in the sun for a full day to generate energy before you can finally use your very own solar light.
Solar Oven
The solar oven is perfect for parents and children who enjoy baking. While it isn’t as powerful as electric types, solar ovens are more fun to use and the process of building it is enjoyable just as well.

● 3 clean and empty tin cans (tops and bottoms removed)
● Tape
● An unbent paper clip
● A thumbtack or a straight pin
● A paper pinwheel
● 2 books
Instructions:
1. Stack the 3 tin cans together and tape the points where they meet.
2. Tape the two ends of the paper clip on opposite sides of the top can, like an arch.
3. Tape the thumbtack to the center of the arch, facing up.
4. Place the stack of cans on top of two books with a space in between.
5. Place the paper pinwheel on the center of the thumbtack.
6. Place under the sun.
What happens next will amaze you. You will see the pinwheel spin—this is because the sunlight heats the inside of the cans and creates a convective updraft. This will teach your kids that solar power and physics are awesome!
Key Takeaway
Solar power isn’t a complicated concept and there’s no better way to explain it to your kids than doing solar powered DIY crafts which are easy to make with them. With just basic materials and some sunlight, you can have fun with your children this summer,
while learning with them at the same time.

The Earth—our planet—has been around for billions of years, and after all this time, it still hasn’t run out of ways to marvel us. Without it, we would have an incomplete solar system and the Philippines would simply not exist.
However, the Earth isn’t getting any younger and the resources it provides us aren’t going to last for eternity. The planet has provided us the opportunity to experience life and thousands of places to create unforgettable moments in and it certainly deserves
something in return.
Earth Day, a worldwide event that is dedicated to the planet, is held annually on the 22nd of April. It is during this day that everyone is encouraged to do what they can to help in preserving the planet, from switching off unnecessary lights to helping in getting rid
of plastic products.
Anyone can celebrate Earth Day, including you. You don’t have to shut off everything in your home completely or avoid gadgets altogether. In fact, Earth Day can be quite an enjoyable experience. In this article, you will read about simple ways you can celebrate
the occasion.
Plant a Tree
There aren’t enough words in any dictionary to describe how important trees are. They are our primary source of oxygen, they help keep the planet cool, and they are a source of food. Sadly, trees are being cut down every day and they take decades to fully
grow. It is said that the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago and the next best time is now—and this is nothing but the absolute truth.
Planting a tree is simple and it doesn’t take a lot of time. One tree may not look like much when compared to the sheer vastness of the planet, but it makes a difference, and it can inspire the people near you to plant their own trees.
Go on a Bicycle Ride
Before there were automobiles and planes, people traversed the world on foot or on horseback—or camelback. The travel time back then was exponentially longer, but people didn’t mind as the environment was beautiful and refreshing.
Going to places on a bicycle this Earth Day is a great way to celebrate it. It doesn’t even have to be far places—a few laps around your local area is fine, as you’re contributing in your own little way to lessening carbon emissions, even if it’s just for a few hours. If
you have plans with your friends, meet together on your bikes—it’s going to be a fun experience.
Key Takeaway
Earth Day reminds us that we only have one planet and that we shouldn’t abuse it. While it isn’t a requirement, taking part can be fun and contributing to the preservation of the planet is surely worth your time. Caring for the Earth ensures that it can continue
providing us shelter and resources, and you will be doing future generations a huge favor by doing so.

energy instead of fossil fuels. One way to know for sure that you’re consistently doing the environment more
good than harm is by building a green home. If that’s not convincing enough, here are a few other reasons
to go green.
Energy Efficiency
The goal of the people that construct green buildings/homes is to reduce the overall dependency on
nonrenewable sources of energy; which is why they want the structure to be as efficient as possible, and to
eradicate any hint of energy that came from nonrenewable sources. Consequently, they choose to
incorporate solar panels to reduce the dependency on electricity that come from non-renewable sources.
They also incorporate as much windows as they can to reduce the dependency on artificial light, and to
ensure that the building only uses up energy in an efficient manner. They make it a point that for efficiency
to be incorporated because it not only helps the owner, but it also reduces the dependency of people from
non-renewable sources of energy, and most importantly, pollution.
Health Benefits
Aside from energy efficiency, people can also enjoy better health benefits when they live in eco-friendly
homes and buildings. The primary difference of a green building from a non-green building is the materials
that they use to construct the overall structure. The materials that eco-friendly construction companies use
are non-toxic and they also avoid using plastic by-products. This is all due to the health hazards that plastic
by-products have because they release carcinogens that not only cause breathing problems, but are also
known to cause cancer.
Converting to a green home or building will ensure that you will have cheaper operational costs, energy
efficiency, and some health benefits that you would not have otherwise obtained if you opted for a traditional
structure. So, what are you waiting for? Convert to a green home/building now!

What are the do’s and don’ts when it comes to owning a solar system?
1. Do face all of the panels in the same direction if you are using an inverter with only 1 MPPT tracker inverter
2. Do install a dual string type of inverter if you have to face two different directions
3. Don’t use dissimilar types of solar panel components
In terms of harvesting solar power, the Philippines’ position is definitely advantageous. It is situated just above the equator, meaning it
receives more sunlight compared to other countries.
Due to the favorable global positioning of the country, it is highly recommended that Filipinos purchase and install solar systems atop their
Philippine homes. This solar equipment could turn the sun’s rays into electrical energy.
This alternative source of energy is highly beneficial to the environment because it lessens the demand for fossil fuels. In addition, these
solar panels do not emit greenhouse gasses that could harm the ozone layer in the atmosphere. By utilizing them, your carbon footprint will
be reduced significantly.
Due to this, the number of Filipinos who want to use this technology has risen. They believe that it is a sound investment that they could rely
on. But just like any other investment, they should also be properly taken care of.
Below, you will see a few do’s and dont’s when it comes to owning a solar system in the Philippines.
Do: Install a Dual String Type of Inverter (or Dual Tracker) if you face
panels in two different directions
https://solaric.com.ph/blog/dos-donts-solar-system-philippines/ (2 of 4)10/4/2018 8:07:00 AM
Owning a Solar System in the Philippines | Solaric Blog
In case you—the homeowner—do not have one surface large enough to accommodate all the solar panels, then there is no other choice
than to install the solar systems on two sides of your roof. This is possible by using a solar inverter with two MPPT trackers, or a “dual
tracker solar inverter”.
Such cases do occur, and for cases like this, it is ideal to install a separate inverter that functions specifically for each side only.
By doing so, the light provided by the sun is maximized and harvested even during the different times of the day.
During the morning, those solar panels installed in the East will be able to harvest solar energy. On the other hand, the panels facing the
West will be able to harvest the solar energy needed to be consumed during the afternoon.
In the event that a solar panel is equipped with either dissimilar voltage or current level, the lower rate of current or voltage will be the one
utilized by the system and not the higher rate. For these kinds of instances, the power output is significantly lessened, meaning the
performance rate of the system is not at its optimum level.
Key Takeaway
These are the do’s and don’ts when it comes to owning a solar panel in the Philippines.
Just follow these tips to ensure that your solar systems are optimized in terms of functionality.

With the help of the solar systems from the Philippines, homes are provided with electrical energy through a renewable and
environment-friendly resource.
If two sets of the exact same model of solar panels were to be placed in two different regions of the country, you might wonder
whether the solar homes will be able to produce the same amount of solar energy.
The answer is ‘No.’
For example, solar panels installed in the NCR (National Capital Region) will not have similar solar harvest compared to those
that are in the Northern Luzon area. In fact, the chance that they generate the same amount of electrical energy is relatively low,
even when they were measured at the same time.
The reason for this is because there are many factors that could overall affect your panels’ solar harvest. Some of which are:
● The angle of your solar panel
● The direction where the solar panel is facing
● The sun’s availability
● Shadows that could obstruct the harvest of your solar panels
Luckily, there are some ways for you to consider in order to maximize your solar harvest.
Remove Obstructions
It is highly common for solar panels to be covered in dust, dirt, leaves, and even the dreaded bird droppings.
For most solar system owners, cleaning the panels may seem like a chore.
However, these obstructions could cause the panels to function inefficiently due to the shade it creates, which blocks the path of
sunlight.
Do keep in mind that every inch of the panel absorbs sunlight, and is therefore essential for a solar panel to function.
Additionally, you might want to be on the look-out for nearby tall structures that may not create shadows on your panels during
summer months, but could definitely be blocking the sunlight come the latter months.
Key Takeaway
And that’s it!
Those are the various ways on how your solar panels can function efficiently.
Make sure to follow these tips so that you can maximize the capacity of your solar panels and get the most out of your eco-
friendly investment.

Net Metering
Net metering makes solar panels a huge investment for consumers. It allows consumers to earn from their excess energy
supply during the day, and maintains a connection to the grid during nighttime.
The process works like this: you keep the connection between you and the grid, while you also install the solar panels. So when
the weather’s not good that there’s not enough sunlight for the solar panels to convert into electricity, your electricity supply can
be taken from the grid. On the other hand, whenever your solar panels receive more sunlight, the excess electricity can be
delivered to the grid. From there, you may earn credits that you can use during the night.
It can also be said that the grid serves as an energy storage for solar panels.
Key Takeaway
The short answer is yes, solar panels work at night – given that there’s enough stored energy to convert into electricity.
However, with regards to its capability of generating energy during night is simply “possible” – given that researches are still
being conducted and nothing’s definite as of now. Only time can tell what’s in the future of solar panels.

While the amount of renewable energy usage across the world is still minimal compared to the usage of regular forms of energy, there are a
number of countries that have been going green on their energy for the past decade. One country that has been leading the way for the
past few years is Germany, which is the world’s leading user of solar energy. Germany uses over 35 Gigawatts worth of renewable
energyand has been proven to be able to provide a healthy share of energy in various areas of the country.
The United States of America is another example of a country that has been harnessing the power of solar energy. While their renewable
energy resources aren’t as large compared to the rest of the pack, the number of projects related to it have increased in number. The
country aims to use more green energy by the next decade.
Another country that has been using solar energy for a long time is Japan. Japan was the first country to integrate solar energy into their
main power grid. While they may have slowed down with their renewable energy projects in the past few years due to their nuclear
program, Japan has been commissioning new projects to increase their usage and reliance on renewable energy.
Another Asian country that has been utilizing solar energy more and more is China, which is one of the leading solar panel providers in the
world. Like the United States of America, they have been using conventional power sources for a long time, which has been causing
unwanted pollution in the country. With various companies in the country manufacturing a high amount of solar panels, China expects to
increase the number of the total solar panels being used as a part of their national power grid.
Other than these four nations, other countries like Italy, Sweden, Denmark, Honduras, Uruguay, and Nicaragua have also made massive
strides when it comes to renewable energy usage. With these set of countries leading the way, other nations might want to learn from their
practicesand welcome renewable energy in the country.
Producing Results
In terms of numbers being produced, renewable energy has been deliveredand has even satisfied the power neededto their respective
countries. Here are some incredible statistics that can help make you see that renewable energy sources would be the future of energy.
With these kinds of statistics, renewable energy is going on an upward trend during the recent years, and with more projects along the way,
expect more countries to become reliant on renewable energy.

What Would Be The World Like If It Ran Only On Solar Power? | Solaric Blog
A Solar World?
With the various numbers that have been presented in this article, is it possible to have the world that is entirely reliant on solar energy?
With so many countries having energy milestones on single types of renewable energy, why not? The advent of solar energy proved to the
world that using energy from the sun is not only environmentally friendly and safe, but it also showed that it can be relied upon as a primary
source of energy in the near future. However, before envisioning the world that only uses solar energy, let’s try imagining a single country
first.
https://solaric.com.ph/blog/world-ran-solar-power/ (10 of 12)10/4/2018 8:09:30 AM
What Would Be The World Like If It Ran Only On Solar Power? | Solaric Blog
For a country to rely on solar energy alone, they must have an area that is wide enough to place a good amount of solar panels. The farther
you spread out your solar panels, the more energy you can get. With the quality of solar panels improving, which leads to higher conversion
rates, all you need would be a healthy amount of sunlight regularly. Even without a large land area, solar panels can be installed easily on
various types of infrastructure like houses and buildings, which makes them the most convenient form of renewable energy available. With
their accessibility and ease of construction, it will not be surprising to see cities covered in solar panels in the near future.
If it is possible for a single city and country to rely entirely on solar energy, it would not be farfetched to see countries adopting it as their
main power source. While this is an undertaking that would not happen overnight, it is a project that would see the overall phasing out of
traditional power sources, which can take a few years depending on the number of power plants that will be phased out. While this may
seem like a Herculean task for the world to do, with cooperation and coordination from the government and various corporations, it can be a
project that is highly possible.
With the rise of renewable energy sources, countries around the world would be looking to phase out their traditional power sources. It will
not be surprising to see at least 20 or more countries around the world to rely on renewable energy for 90% of their major power needs.
With other green energy trends in different sectors like manufacturing and transportation, a world with efficient energy usage will become a
reality.With the recent Paris Conference, countries have been establishing their green energy choices that they should achieve in the next
few years.

In the past few years, the world has seen a gradual and constant shift towards using renewable energy sources in order to
help save the environment. From the solar system, the Philippines, and the rest of the world, renewable energy is
something that can be used and utilized to the fullest. The Philippines is one country that has developed their renewable
energy sources. In fact, solar tech in the Philippines is on a steady rise over the past few years.
Aside from that, some of the biggest companies in the world have begun to use renewable energy sources for their
facilities in an attempt to lessen the emission of harmful gases that would be released into the environment. Along with
these renewable sources, recyclable and biodegradable materials are also being used more widely, which ensures that
there would be less waste disposed in landfills or oceans. To further enforce these policies, these companies set their own
renewable energy goals, some of which have been met with much success. In an effort to inspire others, here are some of
the companies that have reached their renewable energy target:
LEGO
The goal of the famous toy brick company was to have their whole company run on 100 percent renewable energy by
2020. But on May 2017, the company announced that their facilities have already achieved that. In fact, much of the
company’s renewable energy comes from wind turbines, with one of these wind farms producing around 260 megawatts
of energy. Other than renewable energy in their facilities, LEGO also produces solar powered toys to spread awareness of
the benefits of using solar power to the younger generation.
Apple
One of the largest technology companies has also been reaching their target for the past few years, with almost 93
percent of their energy sources coming from renewables by 2015. Apple uses a combination of solar power, hydroelectric
power, and wind power to give them the energy that they need. They are also aiming to ensure that their packaging is
made out of 100 percent recyclable materials, such as bamboo and waste sugar cane.
Google
From one technology company to another, Google has announced that it will be able to reach its goal of using 100 percent
renewable energy in their offices by the end of 2017. The company invested in 44 percent of their renewable energy
during 2015, which comes from both solar and wind power.
Other than wind and solar energy, Google has been also looking into hydroelectric energy and biomass as other
renewable alternatives in the near future.
IKEA
One of the world’s largest furniture companies, IKEA has committed to use renewable energy in their facilities as well.
Their goal is to reach 100 percent by 2025, with most of this energy coming from wind and solar sources. They are also
pushing their green agenda to the whole company as well, pushing to use more organic and recyclable materials in their
furniture, along with using more cotton and lessening the amount of waste that is disposed.
Key Takeaway
As the world shifts to a greener agenda, these companies make sure that they are at the forefront of this positive change.
Thanks to these large companies and industries, it would not be surprising to see the use of renewable energy increase
worldwide in the next decade.

How Students Can Use Low-Priced Solar Panels for Their Devices
What low-priced solar panel devices can students use?
1. Power banks
2. Sources of power
3. Study guides or modes of research
Innovation and convenience are two things that definitely go hand-in-hand. In fact, many of today’s new inventions are able to accommodate different kinds of target markets;
this includes students from different universities around Manila. With that said, a solar panel is one of everyone’s best bets, and with the prices of solar panels in the Philippines
all being affordable for the masses, there’s no need to worry about electricity costs anytime soon!
When it comes to this, students aim for the convenience it provides in handling their gadgets, especially if it is directed to their studies. In any case, affordability is a huge factor
in the world of academics, though it is important for students to know how to be able to use them. To help them out, here are some ways on how students can use these solar
panels for their devices:
Source: DealDey
none other than what it is named for: to store power in a “bank.” This power will then be used to charge your handheld device. For university students, this can be a big deal
particularly if they need to do an assignment or paper on the go, considering they won’t need to find an outlet to get power from.
Key Takeaway
Life as a student is certainly not easy in many ways.Thankfully, with solar power in their lives, students can have one less thing to worry about.

Battery Charging
Have you ever thought of using solar energy in charging your batteries? Well, we think it’s time to do so. Sunlight is always
present, and not using it even for small applications can be a waste. Thankfully, there are companies that sell solar-powered
device chargers helping innovate the way people charge their devices’ batteries. Though, if you have the right materials, you can
also opt to create your own device solar charger! Building one can help you better your devices especially when you’re doing
outdoor activities such as traveling and camping.
Water Heating
Swimming pools are better used when it’s not too cold to dip in. This very problem can be solved through adding a solar blanket in
the pool to warm up your water, or perhaps a solar heating system to help you better get the job done. What the solar heating
system does is it uses the light collected from the sunlight and converts it to heat. The solar panels will be mounted on your roof to
collect the heat, and from there, the heat will be passed onto the pool. Thus, increasing the pool’s water temperature. Conversely,
this technology can also be used in cooling pool water especially during hot seasons.
Ventilation
Despite the widespread use of air conditioning units, ventilation fans are still very common. This goes most especially in the sala,
dining room, kitchen, and many other areas where unwanted air are most existent and the need to circulate the air in return for a
cleaner one is vital. More than anything, it helps remove foul odor at home. However, it cannot be denied that the use of both air
conditioners and fans can rather amount to particular returns on your utility bills. The practical alternative is using solar-powered
fans that you can either buy or build yourself.
Lighting
When you come home at night, you definitely prefer seeing light both inside and outside of your home. This does not only make
your home look visible, rather it also helps in avoiding unwanted guests at night. With solar lighting, you can make your home as
well-lit as possible without worrying about your utility bills. The solar panels can help charge the batteries during daytime and make
use of it during nighttime. You can even design your own solar-lit landscape to make your home look better at night.
Key Takeaway
Literally, these extraordinary uses of solar panels are lit. Solar panels do not only help save you from expensive utility charges and
minimize the pressure on utility grids, but it also allows you to customize your own energy resource. The use of solar energy in the
Philippines is definitely a huge advantage!

Solar systems has the Philippines and the rest of the world blown away for being a feasible power source in the long term. It
was able to eliminate the side effects that other power sources had, notably carbon dioxide emissions that was causing harm to
the environment. With Philippine solar systems starting to take the spotlight, does this mean that coal mining in the Philippines
is now doomed?
What is coal?
Coal, also known as fossil fuel, has been the primary source of energy worldwide. It is either a combustible black or brown
sedimentary rock made of organic carbon. It is commonly found as layers or veins, and are either mined through surface mining
or underground mining.
While it has been found to be a cost-efficient power source for its energy content, it also plays as a catalyst in common
environmental issues for emitting carbon dioxide. Aside from being a main contributor to climate change, large amounts of
carbon dioxide in the air also declines the oxygen supply for breathing. This causes major health complications that can lead to
unconsciousness, convulsion, or death. The process also exposes miners to several health and safety hazards.
Emissions
The disadvantages of coal-sourced electricity was often overlooked due to its cheap price. However, using fossil fuel has
caused the emission of various chemical components that harm the environment and contributes to major calamities around the
world. Among these include carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide:
1. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is emitted when burning coal. It’s considered harmful to humans and the environment given that it cuts the oxygen
supply for breathing, leading to major respiratory issues.
2. Sulfur dioxide is emitted by coal-fired power plants. It plays a huge role for acid rain as when it goes up high in the atmosphere and comes
in contact with water, it returns to earth as rain with sulfur acid content.
Solar energy, on the other hand, do not emit any emissions on its power generation process.
Availability
The initial availability of coal globally led to its regular consumption. It was basically available 24/7 and is not affected by cloud
cover unlike solar thus becoming one of the main sources of energy.
Meanwhile, solar currently cannot generate the same efficiency with the presence of cloud cover. Moreover, it cannot produce
power during night time given that it relies highly on the sun.
Key Takeaway
If solar systems in the Philippines and the rest of the world takes over coal, we can expect that it could cause the world at an
advantage. After all, it’s a healthy, sustainable power source. The carbon dioxide as led by coal mining in the Philippines should
soon decline resulting to a greener environment in the near future. We hope it’s not too late!

The reduced solar panel price in the Philippines and around the world has surprised many.
Nevertheless, it brought convenience and happiness to the people. It helped reduce the usual utility
bills of both homeowners and commercial establishments, and offer an alternative power source to
remote areas which often face struggles when it comes to electricity supply. In the Philippines, this
renewable energy has not only changed the way people consume power, but also health institutions
and hospitals. A feasible alternative considering the tested stability and efficiency of said power
source.

Going back to year 2015, Calamba, Laguna made headlines of a huge integration of solar panels in
one of its private hospitals. Perhaps, it was the largest renewable energy system in the Philippines
to power a hospital during that time.
The Calamba Doctor’s Hospital uses solar energy along with wind energy to supply 20% of its
power requirements through a partnership with Orion Group International. The administration and
their investors aim to go green and augment their power supply especially that the year 2015 was
forecasted to experience energy crisis during the year. Also, the said integration was expected to
lessen the hospital’s utility bill from Php 800,000-1,000,000 to Php 160,000-200,000 at maximum. In
return, however, the hospital will also pay Php 16,500,000 for the installed renewable energy
system where 10% goes to the deposit, while the left 90% will be paid over the next 5 years.
Image
Another life-changing integration of solar system in the Philippines is Castro Maternity Hospital and
Medical Center’s. It was a step by step process which ultimately resulted into a good 50KW of pure
solar power source.
In partnership with Meister Solar, the said health institution held a solar system atop its roof top
where the angle is best situated. This helped the hospital reduce its electricity bills with Php 727,650
as savings every year. More so, it helped lessen 40 tons of carbon dioxide emissions at best,
thereby allowing the hospital to contribute to the green advocacy of producing clean energy.
Doctor’s Hospital on solar-wind system and Castro Maternity Hospital and Medical Center cannot
be questioned. It has proven time and time again of its lifespan especially with quality panels
installed. The solar panel price in the Philippines, most especially, is a huge advantage considering
its cost-efficiency. The said Philippine renewable energy system is expected to last for at least 25
years at maximum.
Key Takeaway
Every solar investor has their own unique story, however amongst others, hospitals remain to be the
most heartwarming. The benefits that hospitals and other health institutions can gain from solar
does not only guarantee savings but also the stability of this power source to provide for their
energy needs. Furthermore, it helps promote clean and green renewable source to reduce carbon
dioxide emissions.

As residential and commercial establishment owners continue to venture onto solar systems in the Philippines, so as
the progress of the solar power projects in the country. Various business owners have tried and succeeded their
ventures on said renewable energy source, hence, the continuous efforts on making the turnover of utility grid usage to
solar systems.
In this article, we’ll discuss about the 2017 ventures on solar systems in the Philippines.
Is it feasible?
Amongst others, Palawan remains to be a locality where energy source is limited hence supported by diesel energy
source. This very reason could hinder Palawan from its potentials of growing into an urban city. With its reputation over
the world due to its widely known tourist spots and natural attractions, the project being prepared by PGEC is a feasible

Top Ventures on Solar Systems in the Philippines
Is it feasible?
The solar farm project is feasible for both sides: the owner and consumer. Aside from being able to augment the energy
supply in Visayas region where common outages occur, the project also helps promote the use of green energy for
electricity supply. In fact, according to reports from Cebu Daily News, the project will most likely replace around 157,000
barrels of crude oil that causes air pollution in the area. Hence, it can also be expected that the same project will help
reduce carbon dioxide emissions by around 38,000 tons. Today, the Toledo solar farm is the largest solar plant station in
the country.
Key Takeaway
Brisk implementation of solar energy source has become prevalent in the Philippines, and we’re in favor of these
companies’ aim. Solar energy is the wisest way to augment power supply around the country as it is not only renewable,
but also promotes a clean and green environment for people to live in. Plus, it opens more employment opportunities
within communities!

But, what environmental threats are we talking about? What are the alarming issues that we need to resolve? Asking these questions and knowing the threats to the diversity of life on Earth will help us know the different ways on
how we can get involved in the conservation of our environment. Let’s take a look at some of the biggest environmental threats that we should start addressing.
Climate Change
One of the common environmental threats we are now facing is climate change. Climate change refers to the change in climate patterns – may it be regional or global – and the rise in average surface temperature on Earth. Some
of the effects of climate change are melting of polar ice-caps, rising of sea levels, extreme heat events, droughts, fires, and extreme rainfall and floods, which cause significant risks to our forests, natural resources, and human
health.
Deforestation
The continually loss of our forest has been one of the extreme issues the Earth is facing. Our forest covers about 30% of the Earth’s land, which provides a natural habitat for the wildlife, serves as a protection from flooding and
sandstorms, and plays a vital role in water cycle. This is why the destruction of forests is accompanied by various negative effects on the planet. Deforestation may lead to the loss of habitat for millions of species, damages the
quality of the land, extreme temperature swings, pollution, and drives climate change.
Loss of Biodiversity
Every species has its own role in our environment that makes the ecosystem balance. However, with the arrival of the environmental problems, such as climate change and deforestation, biodiversity will be put at risk.
Loss of biodiversity negatively affects the environment, the same way climate change and deforestation do. An imbalanced ecosystem and the decrease of natural resources are some of the significant changes that occur when
there’s a loss of biodiversity.
Tackling the threats to the environment is essential so we can properly address how we can stop these environmental issues and preserve the state of the Earth not only for us, but for the future generation as well.

new way to conserve energy and reserve other sources of power to minimize the supply. Today, the increasing
demand for this renewable energy source has rapidly increased.
Key Takeaway
The growing expansion of solar panels in houses and commercial establishments caused a huge impact in the
industry. Thus, solar gaining recognition for being the fastest growing source of energy amongst its peers, wind, coal,
and fossil among many others. It can be said that this achievement has truly made a wonderful exposure for using
solar systems as an alternative sustainable source of energy.

Success stories of installing solar systems in the Philippines has been making rounds and has also
turned the use of solar panels as an alternative to utility grids into a trend amongst residential areas. In turn,
a lot of people have opted to using this renewable energy to their advantage, especially with the decrease in
its pricing.
Hold your horses though. Going solar is great in many many ways, but you need to makes sure you don’t
make these common mistakes.
Quick Tip: The solar-south orientation is the most efficient way to get desirable results when it comes to
collecting sunlight as it allows the most coverage during the available hours of the sun.
Key Takeaway
With these in mind, it should be easier for you to make smart decisions and successfully install the solar
system while avoiding extra expenses that could make the installation costlier than they should be. The
most expensive options don’t necessarily mean that it’s the best for your use. You can always achieve high-
efficiency panels with the right orientation, angle, and placement of your solar panels.

What inspires many individual and groups to invest in solar systems in the Philippines is the way Germany uses renewable
energy. Despite not having a climate like ours, the Germans were able to find a way to harness the energy of the sun in an
efficient way. In fact, 85% of their overall power comes from renewable energy sources such as solar panels. Read on to see
how they achieved this amazing feat.
Key Takeaway
Because of the full support of its people and government, Germany is able to go into full production with renewable energy such
solar power. Even with little sun – as compared to tropical countries like ours – it still was able to become the world leader in
renewable energy and solar power.

Solar back in 2013 was starting to make economic sense vs. escalating grid power costs as solar panel prices in the Philippines have
crashed because of decades of efforts from First World countries to adopt in mass scale with generous subsidies. It is the convergence

of declining manufacturing costs from Asia suppliers and the absurdly high rates of power in the Philippines that made it viable then and
even more pertinent today.
Right now, solar energy is the fastest riser in Global energy production and countries are adopting it as it is a race against time because
of climate change and rising carbon emissions from unbridled industrialization. Countries like China and Britain are junking coal all
together and installing GW of Solar as if there is no tomorrow. They had solid awareness on what green power can do, and how it can
replace energy stalwarts like coal and nuclear.
It takes more than lowered costs to get a new technology out, it is the education on how the technology works, separating fact from
myth, how can one benefit from it, and since installing solar takes a fair amount of technical skill—basic bedrock of fundamentals is
needed.
After seeing a number of do-it-yourself builds fail spectacularly, we realized that the industry needed help to avoid problems and
accidents. So we developed our Solar 101 and 202 curriculum using real world input from foreign experts, actual installation or design
scenarios, and mercilessly removed the markety scams and false economy solar builds, such as urban solar street lamps out the
window and designed a solar course that has purely the consumers’ interests in mind.
We have been doing the seminar for 3 years, we have seen all kinds of people walk-in including Senators, Energy policy makers,
contractors, homeowners, businessmen, factory owners, engineers, housewives, and your basic electrical contractor (who now does
solar kaya ice plant with our training).
Our business coach said it is madness to teach potential competitors about installing solar, but we said Nobody can monopolize the sun
and our country needs this technology to be available and implementable as soon as possible. What happened is that we trained over
1000 people from Batanes to Zamboanga on how to install solar panels and have resulted in MW’s of installed capacity that can easily
dwarf the largest of malls, and this momentum is growing.
The only thing that is as infinite as the energy of the Sun, is the Filipinos desire to learn, start a new business or find pragmatic solutions
to heavy problems like Global warming or guilt-free air conditioning.
Our next Solar 101 and 202 seminar is on September 23 and 24 course details and cost are found at this page.

Capitalizing from years of installing solar systems in the Philippines, Solaric has developed an industry renowned weekend course on Solar Energy called Solar 101. It is a semi technical course that allows a lay person or engineer to understand the practical
aspects of solar systems and how it can economically bring down electricity bills, replace diesel generation and most importantly teach the average consumer or policy maker on what type of solar system to install in a no nonsense non biased manner. From
Housewives, business owners, Energy managers, and even other solar companies have made this a very popular course over the past 3 years as every chapter and page of content of this class is based on practical or actual experiences in solar projects in
the Philippines. It is uncommon for a company to divulge trade secrets in solar installation but our view is that quality fundamentals and techniques are needed to make renewable energy grow in sunny Philippines.
Please note this 1 day seminar does not teach you how to install. If you would like to get your hands dirty and learn how to do basic solar planning, design, and installation – then we would highly recommend our SOLAR 202 WORKSHOP which is held the

Unlike fossil fuels, renewable energy sources barely have any emissions and these emissions do not cause the same amount of
environmental damage that fossil fuels bring. With the rest of the world aiming to prevent further damage to the environment, using solar
energy is one of the best solutions.
Myth #8: Solar panels require tracking systems so that they follow the
angle of the sun
Solar panels work best when they are angled in a way that they receive the highest amount of sunlight. Since the sun moves constantly
during the day, tracking devices are required to help them readjust.
FACT: While it is true that the angles of a solar panel need to be adjusted accordingly, it is not required that you constantly readjust your
solar panels. Solar panels are already adjusted to receive the most amount of sunlight that they can in the position that they are in, so
constant shifting may lead to times of the day where you would not receive enough energy.
Key Takeaway
Solar energy is the most popular form of renewable energy available, which leads to so many questions about its durability and reliability.

2 Degrees
The Paris Agreement is all about keeping the world’s average temperature from rising by 2 degrees Celsius
above preindustrial levels until 2100. Some may think that this is such a small number for a global
movement but the smallest increase in global temperature already has huge consequences. Such a climate
change could cause higher seas, drastic weather changes, and food and water droughts.
The Paris Agreement is a global movement and one of the biggest showcase of world unity in a long time.
For it to succeed its mission, world leaders are making the efforts to reach peak emissions as soon as
possible. In order for them to do that, their citizens must follow the changes and new acts they may
implement.

Materials
1. A light wood or plastic frame; at least 6 square centimeters
2. 4 small axles or thin metal bars
3. 4 wheels
4. 4 eye
5. Adhesives and tape
6. 1 DC Motor
7. 1 small solar panel; just big enough to fit your mini car frame
8. 1 small gear and/or pulley
9. 1 large gear
10. Thin plastic tubes or drinking straws
11. 1 soldering iron
large gear firmly yet smoothly. After you do this, move the car back and forth on the flat ground to make
sure that the gears are properly working together.
Next, wire the motor to your solar panel and glue the panel into place. You could position this in any way
that you want, depending on your design preferences. However, it is recommended that you keep it either
horizontal or tilted so it could capture as much heat from the sun as possible.
Once this is done, you are finished constructing your miniature solar car. You must then test if it works!
Testing
The first thing you should test again is if the wheels can still rotate properly. Check it on the flat ground,
rough ground, an inclined surface, or in your hand.
When you are sure that the wheels can rotate smoothly, look for a good heat source. Either good outside on
a sunny day or use a strong lamp (at least 120 watts). If all the wiring is correct, then your car will run.
Revise and correct the wiring or construction if your car fails to move.
The heat from the sun (or any other light source) will be absorbed by the solar panel which converts it into
electric energy. This can be used to power almost anything, given that the panel can convert enough energy
to handle it. In this case, it powered a small motor which was smartly connected to gears, axles and wheels
hence allowing the car to move.

How to Get the Best Deal in Our Solar Panel Priced in the Philippines
How to get the best deal in solar panels priced in the Philippines? Learn how it works, find out what is the best setup for your needs and even learn how to install it by yourself via our Solar 101 & 202 seminars.
The use of solar energy to replace or reduce paying for grid power is relatively new and not yet fully understood by the general public but without a doubt is much cheaper than paying for utility as it lasts for decades; and has
no moving parts and packs more than enough power to run multiple air cons with our scorching Philippine sun.
It is rather unusual that a solar installation company teaches its “trade secrets” on how solar works and connecting it down to the nuts and bolts level. At Solaric, we have a different philosophy on how we do business. Solar
energy could never be monopolized, controlled by the oligarchs, but an energy resource that is free to all. We simply teach how to harness it, make it run our electrical appliances that make our modern lifestyles possible, and
in some cases produce ZERO electric bill.
The language of solar derived electricity is rather simple but implementation a little bit complex to some as it needs fundamentals in physics, energy, mechanical, and even political considerations as we connect it to the
national grid that needs our excess power, especially when it’s hot.
We have come out with a single weekend seminar that allows homeowners, business men, and even professional electrical engineers to grasp concepts that are unique to Solar PV and what it means to bring down their
electric bill or run a remote off grid installation.
Since not everyone will be installing their own setups, it is divided into two segments, Solar 101 and Solar 202 workshop.
Solar 101 is an 8 hour class that covers the basics of electrical energy, Volts, Amps, Kw vs Kwh to ensure the class has a firm grasp of electrical ABC’s, then midday into the technical and sizing ratios of the number of solar
panels to kWh demand. In the afternoon, we will be discussing different types of solar systems, installation pitfalls to watch for, and how to get net metering so you don’t need to waste money on short lived batteries.
To register, please log in to this page.
On the other hand, Solar 202 works on the theories from 101 but progressively more technical with wire sizing calculations, voltage matching, racking of solar modules, and live wiring of systems. This is compulsory training for
those wanting to buy solar equipment but without prior solar experience, or seasoned practitioners to level up with globally accepted safety standards.
Online Registration is on this page.
How effective is our class?
Attendees can determine what size of solar works best for them and have us install a system at discounted prices worth much more than the P5k seminar fee. This is how smart homeowners get solar installed at lower than
published prices, learn what they need from their own calculations and matched to their lifestyle.
The cost for the seminar is P5000 for Solar 101 and P5000. Solar 202 graduates will have access to our installer component rates and after sales tech support to get their projects going. For information about the upcoming
seminar dates, you may click here.
We have been running this seminar for three years and the current result is MWh’s of clean renewable energy produced every day and casting doubt on a feasibility study for another polluting coal plant.
For more information go to this page or call us at 5040092 or at 09178603141.

People tend to react when the crisis is on our feet; we were having some talks with the Government about solar many moons back
regarding the Philippines power supply, back then, the technology and its potential was not fully understood by politicians and
energy specialists. Grid tie and Net Metering were unheard of and unfamiliar topics with the LGU (local government units) and
local power utilities. That was back in 2013.
“Solar couldn’t be cheaper than grid” exclaimed one; “how about if it’s raining would the lights go off,” said the other, however, we
knew that solar worked in countries like Germany and Japan, where it’s not particularly sunny, and the output was so potent that
they decided to mothball their ageing nuclear plants because the supply was now augmented.
Things are different now and technological barriers and cost efficiencies that favored burning coal is now becoming obsolete or
downright irresponsible with climate change.
At Solaric, we are pioneering bill reducing solar technologies and conduct open source solar seminars on how to engineer
projects. Our focus is providing the consumer their own personal power plant on their roof, so they can minimize their own power
bill.
You may ask, how effective is solar—we routinely half electric bills as this is what Government policy supports with Net Metering
and current buyback rates. Install enough solar to cover daytime loads with any excess purchased by the utility (at a discounted
rate).
Occasionally, we have very green minded people who think beyond the 5-year ROI (return on investment) and put in so much
solar power that the bill reads P0.00.
So to the pundits out there saying “paano kung walang hanging, walang araw,” our retort is: “Paano kung walang bill, Paano kung
walang polyusion! ” Now, my friend, is the time for change and the time to say goodbye to the status quo.
Investing in solar is beyond saving a few pesos; it’s a lifestyle of saying “who’s the boss?” and caring for the environment.
Want to learn more? Go to this page or call us at 5040092.
For best quotes, we need to know what your monthly bill is like and what appliances you normally use during daytime hours.

Apart from purchasing affordable prices of solar panels in the Philippines, the patronage of natural and organic products in the
country is also seen as a way to switch to sustainable lifestyle. The advent of natural and organic products in various
establishments in the metro gave people option to choose fresh produce rather than the toxic ones.
Unfortunately, various food products in stores contain toxins, which are harmful to human health. The best way to avoid our
exposure to harmful chemicals is to be familiar with them and with the food that contains them. Read on and take a look at the
dangerous toxins you need to avoid in food.
Bisphenol-A (BPA)
Bisphenol-A or BPA can be found in food and beverage linings, such as plastic bottles and food containers. This chemical
compound can allegedly boost breast and prostate cancer, diabetes, obesity, and behavioral problems. As much as possible,
avoid canned goods. Instead, opt for fresh, frozen, and dried ones.
BHA and BHT are known to induce skin allergic reactions. According to the International Agency for Researcher on Cancer, BHA
is a possible human carcinogen, a substance that is capable of causing cancer in living tissue. Moreover, BHA is categorized to
interfere with hormone function.
According to cardiologists, the intake of sodium nitrate may increase your risk to develop heart disease. On the other hand, sodium
nitrite may cause kidney failure and organ damage.
There are several ways on how to switch sustainable lifestyle—opting for organic and natural products is one of the easiest and
simplest means. By choosing organic and natural products, you will not only avoid these dangerous toxins but help preserve our
environment as well. You may also choose to grow your own food to ensure that it does not have any harmful toxins. Just
remember when you go shopping, check the label of the food that you will be purchasing to make sure that it does not have any
harmful toxins.

The solar panel equivalent of Bataan Nuclear Plant is like giving every Pinoy a
solar panel priced in the Philippines less than a size of a cartolina.
Is this a pipe dream? Perhaps no more as Germany and Japan gave solid
subsidies so that their citizenry can install and are rewarded, when they put
their own solar rooftops in terms of tax breaks and favorable Net metering
prices. They, in turn, shut down dozens of nuclear plants due to increased
supply of renewables.
As a home owner, the only practical energy resource is to harness sun energy
that falls on our roof and convert it to electrical energy using our solar panel
system builds.
Our main strategy is to put enough solar to cover daytime hour consumption as
that is the easiest to power without using batteries or selling excess power back
to the utility at a discount. However, there are some customers who have
ZEROED their entire electric bills by using LOTS of solar panels on the roof and
essentially became a mini solar farm in their neighborhood.
Solar worked for countries like Japan, Germany, and US—they are not exactly
sunny countries with lots of solar energy. But in the Philippines, it works like
magic; even without a single centavo in Government subsidies or tax relief
support.
Solar rooftop makes sense because of the abundant sunshine that falls to our
roof and low labor rates to install solar panels priced in the Philippines. Just
using less coal power plant power sourced makes financial sense with a
bankable solid return. Returns of less than 5 years are common to solar builds
using grid tie technology and capitalizing on existing legal framework of net
metering to sell back excess solar power to the grid in order to offset night time
consumption. For a product with a service life of at least 25 years, this is
outstanding.
Every day, we energize a rooftop project either directly from our own hands or
from one of the more than a thousand installer and DIY builders we have
trained in the past three years. A single solar panel has the carbon offset of
planting 160 trees, and we planted (installed) thousands and thousands of solar
panels. A few hundred houses and industrial plants later, we probably killed the
feasibility study of another coal plant and gave notice that going green for both
the wallet and the environment makes sense and a financially sustainable
endeavour.
DIY packages at less than the cost of a well-endowed smartphone makes going
green a no nonsense solution on practicality and social responsibility. Air
condition units run capable builds can range from P100k to P140k.
So, if you hate paying more than you should for power, want guilt-free air con,
or simply do NOT want to pay for power anymore, call Solaric at 5040092. You
could also visit this page for more info.

Paying too much for electricity—this is a monthly fact of life that we are making obsolete either by installing solar or empowering
independent installers. Turn On the Sun simply makes sense as the Sun is an infinitely renewable and most abundant power
source.
Solaric, which has solar panels priced in the Philippines, has been installing and developing cutting edge solar systems that
decrease, and at times if installed in copious or audacious amounts, results into a ZERO or even negative electricity bill.
We have energized hundreds of homes and dozens of large power intensive businesses—like steel and ice plants—and have
developed ways for highly efficient systems.
Every day, we get questions like: HM po ang Solar? Easy question, but an intelligible answer would at least take 10 minutes of
thinking and pencilling down some equations and a short interview on how you use power.
To help you out, we categorize solar builds in various phases or levels of commitment.
ROI is longer because exported power is only valued at about half value, but it is something our Phase II clients still find priceless
because simply paying for retail power rates is no longer acceptable after witnessing what solar does to an electric bill. Many of
our Phase II builds are customers who want the full deal, which is being defined with a power bill that reads P0.00.
Being in Phase II means you are getting Phase I + 2x night time load in solar.
Phase III: Phase II + Energy Storage for Loads that Needs to Run on
Backup

Then, there is the holy grail of solar builds: The NEGATIVE carbon footprint house. This is a build that is so green minded
audacious that the solar house (in the eyes of ERC a RE power plant) not only generates all the power it consumes, but has
oodles of excess renewable energy that is resold by the utility around the entire block. The capability to run Offgrid mode, also
included with energy storage using Lithium batteries, are the main features of a Phase III build. This is borne from our military
application projects and R&D into TESLA power wall substitutes and whole roof solar systems.
A Phase III system solves all of our power engineering questions such as, paano kung may brownout, typhoon, earthquake,
zombie apocalypse? Nothing would matter to Phase III build as there will always be power produced at rates that rival coal.
This means that Phase III will include Phase II + energy storage for loads that needs to run on backup.
Key Takeaway
With energy storage coming down due to worldwide adaptation of E Vehicles, we see this as a future trend, but already deploying
them for the most cutting edge residential homes, research institutions, and even military application projects worldwide.
If you want to get Solaric to design, build, and install your ultimate solar project, call us at 5040092 or email us at info@solaric.com.

101 by Solaric
You might ask, why would a solar company teach potential competitors on its business? The answer is simple, really. There is NO way a single
company can provide renewable energy to a growing nation of 100 million people, going renewable is a social philosophy that we embrace and
something that has to be done to mitigate climate change that is ruining our country.
Solar power is now cheaper than coal; it provides a meaningful step in providing clean, cheap, and infinitely renewable power to fuel our homes,
industries, and aspirations. However, it relies on technology, meaning the knowledge of science and ratios is needed for its proper application.
Another query you might have is, why do we go out of our way in holding these seminars? For this, we say that as a system integrator, we are
also called on to fix other people’s builds; and we see on a regular basis solar builds that were built wrong, have undersized wiring, have
oversized sales pitches, or (more critically) experience electrical safety considerations, which had been blatantly ignored from sheer ignorance.
As a solution, what we do is to enable the intrepid entrepreneur, the business owner, or homeowner design, build, analyze, and in some cases
install their own solar projects like a boss.
The Solar 101 seminar goes over the principles of solar, how much solar is just right, and when is it probably too much (because there is such a
thing). The computation of Return of Investment and the technicalities of getting Net Metered installation and how to make the utility buy back
your excess power, so you would NOT end up buying batteries.
Solar 202 seminar, on the other hand, is the application of all theories from the previous seminar. We will be going over installer specific
discussions such as tapping points, wire sizing, mounting and positioning techniques, important system voltage calculations, as well as tackle
questions regarding HOW all of these could be utilized in your own home, business, or even utility scale solar farm.
People, who pass our Solar 202 class, are given dealer/installer access to our installer only price list as we are assured that basic safety
considerations were covered and understood by the participant. We rather sell high powered solar panels and inverters to those who understand
and respect the power of electricity—it’s really heart breaking to see thousands of pesos spent on equipment destroyed by an untrained installer.
With Megawatts of purchasing power of top shelf solar equipment, we bring down costs of solar products to our seminar attendees and, of
course, to our customers.
For more details regarding our Solar 101 and 202 seminars, please call at 5040092 or email us at info@solaric.com.ph.

Our “trade secret” is our guiding philosophy: Design and build every system as if it’s our own money in the line—this is how we
started, that’s how we do it.
For those asking whether this is some kind of “Sell-Me Na-rs,” you’ll be disappointed to know that we don’t do those. It’s not our
style, nor is it an enjoyable way to spend your weekend. However, you could always ask the speakers some questions regarding
solar panel installation or solar panels in general during the seminars.
Our Solar 101 and 202 seminars are just two days, but they are HEAVY in the pertinent details in putting up solar in the
Philippines. In two days, you will learn about solar technology and solar equipment in an unbiased manner. We will also frankly talk
about the permitting process and difficulties you will face when using solar.
All of that takes a little investment in time and money.
In the Solar 101 and 202 seminars, you can expect to learn about the mechanics on how to integrate solar panels to any electrical
system (from Ice plants to a small residential project). You will also be informed about the salient details on how solar works, the
computation for your ROI, as well as the things you need to watch out for when installing high powered solar systems.
In these sessions, our regular guests are astute businessmen, energy executives, solar farm designers, various (solar) energy
companies, home owners, solar enthusiasts, and entrepreneurs, who want to be more than well informed about solar, in general.
The event costs P5000 per day. The whole seminar is divided into two segments: Solar 101 and Solar 202. For more information
for the next Solar 101 and 202, click here and here!

Summary
The SolarEdge inverters may be installed in the following countries. Unless stated otherwise, the approval refers to low voltage
installations. For medium voltage installations, please contact SolarEdge support. Please refer to the country details below for
more information, as in some countries not all grids are supported or not all inverter models are supported.
In supported countries, connection of supported inverters to non-supported grids is permitted through a transformer, if the
secondary connection (transformer connection to the inverter) is identical to a supported grid.
NOTE
Transformer procurement, installation, maintenance and support are the responsibility of the installer. Damage to the inverter due to
incorrect transformer installation or use of a transformer that is incompatible with the SolarEdge system will render the SolarEdge
warranty invalid.
NOTE
Prior to purchasing a StorEdge system verify battery availablity and service in the country. Availability of SolarEdge StorEdge products
does not guarantee battery availabllity.
A country listed in bold indicates that StorEdge inverters with backup are approved for installation in that country.
NOTE
The StorEdge Inverter must be connected Line to Neutral (and not Line to Line).
For installation in countries or with grids not detailed in this document, contact SolarEdge support: support@solaredge.com

Smart Energy Management for Reduced Electricity Bills
Increase your self-consumption
Grid electricity prices are constantly on the rise. This situation motivates the installation of large PV systems
that allow owners to minimize consumption from the grid during the day. However, in some countries local
regulations limit the amount of PV power that can be exported to the grid or allow no export whatsoever,
while allowing the use of PV power for self-consumption. Therefore, without an energy management system,
PV systems cannot be installed (if no export is permitted) or are limited in size (if export is limited to >0W).
The SolarEdge Smart Energy Management solution offers an export limitation option, integrated in the
SolarEdge inverter firmware, which dynamically adjusts PV power production. This allows you to use more
energy for self-consumption when the loads are high, while maintaining the export limit also when the loads
are low.
• Export limitation is integrated into the inverter firmware - install only an energy meter
• Fast Response Time - ensuring that even with rapid changes in load consumption and PV production the
export power does not exceed the limit
• Failsafe Operation - the operation is designed to guarantee that the exported power will never exceed
the preconfigured limit under any fault
Meter Support
The following example illustrates the behavior of a 6kW PV system, with an export power limit of 0W - no
export to the grid.

Battery Connection
CAUTION: For safety operation and regulation compliance, it’s requested to install a separate DC over-current
protector or disconnect device between battery and inverter. It may not be requested to have a disconnect
device in some applications, however, it’s still requested to have over-current protection installed. Please refer
to typical amperage in below table as required fuse or breaker size.
Ring terminal:
5
Please follow below steps to implement battery connection:
1. Assemble battery ring terminal based on recommended battery cable and terminal size.
2. Connect all battery packs as units requires. It’s suggested to connect at least 100Ah capacity battery for
1-3KVA model and at least 200Ah capacity battery for 4KVA/5KVA model.
NOTE: Please only use sealed lead acid battery or sealed GEL/AGM lead-acid battery.
3. Insert the ring terminal of battery cable flatly into battery connector of inverter and make sure the bolts are
tightened with torque of 2-3 Nm. Make sure polarity at both the battery and the inverter/charge is correctly
connected and ring terminals are tightly screwed to the battery terminals.
CAUTION!! Do not place anything between the flat part of the inverter terminal and the ring
terminal. Otherwise, overheating may occur.
CAUTION!! Do not apply anti-oxidant substance on the terminals before terminals are
connected tightly.
CAUTION!! Before making the final DC connection or closing DC breaker/disconnector, be sure
positive (+) must be connected to positive (+) and negative (-) must be connected to negative
(-).
6
AC Input/Output Connection
CAUTION!! Before connecting to AC input power source, please install a separate AC breaker between
inverter and AC input power source. This will ensure the inverter can be securely disconnected during
maintenance and fully protected from over current of AC input. The recommended spec of AC breaker is 10A
for 1KVA, 20A for 2KVA, 32A for 3KVA, 40A for 4KVA and 50A for 5KVA.
CAUTION!! There are two terminal blocks with “IN” and “OUT” markings. Please do NOT mis-connect input
and output connectors.
WARNING:
Be sure that AC power source is disconnected before attempting to hardwire it to the unit.
4. Then, insert AC output wires according to polarities indicated on terminal block and tighten terminal screws.
Be sure to connect PE protective conductor ( ) first.

L→LINE (brown or black)
N→Neutral (blue)
7
5. Make sure the wires are securely connected.
CAUTION: Important
Be sure to connect AC wires with correct polarity. If L and N wires are connected reversely, it may cause
utility short-circuited when these inverters are worked in parallel operation.
CAUTION: Appliances such as air conditioner are required at least 2~3 minutes to restart because it’s required
to have enough time to balance refrigerant gas inside of circuits. If a power shortage occurs and recovers in a
short time, it will cause damage to your connected appliances. To prevent this kind of damage, please check
manufacturer of air conditioner if it’s equipped with time-delay function before installation. Otherwise, this
inverter/charger will trig overload fault and cut off output to protect your appliance but sometimes it still causes
internal damage to the air conditioner.
PV Connection
CAUTION: Before connecting to PV modules, please install separately a DC circuit breaker between inverter
and PV modules.

NOTE: For proper air circulation to dissipate heat, it’s necessary to allow a clearance of approx. 20
cm to the side and approx. 50 cm above and below the unit. Be sure to install each unit in the same
level.
Ring terminal:
5. Wiring Connection
The cable size of each inverter is shown as below:
Recommended battery cable and terminal size for each inverter:
Ring Terminal
Model Wire Size Dimensions Torque value
Cable mm2 D (mm) L (mm)
5KW 2 38 8.4 54.2 7~12 Nm
WARNING: Be sure the length of all battery cables is the same. Otherwise, there will be voltage
difference between inverter and battery to cause parallel inverters not working.
You need to connect the cables of each inverter together. Take the battery cables for example: You
need to use a connector or bus-bar as a joint to connect the battery cables together, and then
connect to the battery terminal. The cable size used from joint to battery should be X times cable
size in the tables above. “X” indicates the number of inverters connected in parallel.
Regarding cable size of AC input and output, please also follow the same principle.
2
CAUTION!! Please install the breaker at the battery side. This will ensure the inverter can be
securely disconnected during maintenance and fully protected from over current of battery.
PV Connection
Please refer to user manual of single unit for PV Connection.
CAUTION: Each inverter should connect to PV modules separately.

7. Setting and LCD Display
Setting Program:
The parallel function setting is only available by Solarpower or Solarpower Pro. Please install the software
in your PC first.
For setting, you can set the inverter one by one through RS232 or USB port.
Note: When using serial port (USB or RS-232) for communication, you only can monitor the inverter
connected with serial port directly. The other inverters will not be listed in Solarpower software. However,
some settings can be applied to all with serial port connection. These kinds of settings are listed as below:
But we suggest you use the SNMP card or Modbus card to combine the system as a centralized monitoring.
So you can use “SYNC” option to set all the inverter at the same time.
7
Use SNMP card to synchronize the parameters:
Each inverter should have one SNMP card. Make sure all of the SNMP cards are connected to the router as
a LAN.
Launch SolarPowerPro in computer and select Device Control >> Parameter Setting >> Parallel output. Two
options: Enable or Disable.
If you want to use parallel function, please choose “Enable” and press “ ” button. Then, “ ”
button will be shown is the screen. Please be sure to click “ ” button before clicking “ ”
button.
There is a “Sync” button in each parameter setting. When “Sync” is clicked and “Apply” is pressed, this new
setting will be applied to all inverters. If not, this setting is only effected in current inverter you choose.
Note: Without centralized monitoring system, “Sync” function is not effective. Then, you have to set up the
inverter one by one through serial communication port.

Middle Clamp
Product Description
Made of extruded aluminum, our middle clamps – as are its included steel
bot and nut – are made to ensure safe and reliable mounting of solar
panels on any given surface. Depending on the number of your panels,
you will need a different amount of these clamps. The general rule is to
multiply the total number of solar panels in an array with 2, then subtract
two from whatever the product it.
For example:
1 solar panel = 0
2 solar panels = 2
3 solar panels = 4
4 solar panels = 6
5 solar panels = 8
