THE RISE OF RENEWABLE ENERGY

When we felt the effects of the pandemic and the lockdowns that were imposed, our usual activities were placed on “hold”. The demand for oil declined since transportation and vehicle usage declined. People stacked their homes with food and looked for other ways to alleviate their boredom and sustainable ways to live. The interest in growing your own food right in your own backyard increased – and so did the demand to produce your own energy. We did not look for non-renewables, instead we turned to sustainable and renewables.

The downside of non-renewable energy

The fast development in industrialization has made non-renewable resources deplete on a faster speed especially with the increasing global population. Keep in mind that non-renewable energy comes from finite sources that will eventually run out or will not be replenished even in millions of years like fossil fuels, coal, and natural gas. The cost to obtain these will continue to rise as they become scarcer until it reaches a point on which consumers can barely afford it. There is always the threat of uncertainty with the costs and availability of these resources not to mention the harmful effects they contribute to climate change.

Renewable Energy

The rise of plantitos and plantitas, along with increased interest in home gardening and sustainable energy due to the pandemic are big indicators that the general population is becoming more aware of the benefits of renewables. The pandemic has made people prioritize and think critically, putting more thoughts and actions on wise and long-term investments more than ever.

Renewable energy like solar power is 100% sustainable and can be used repeatedly. It comes from sources that won’t run out unlike fossil fuels and natural gas. Harnessing the sun’s power will help us during these unsure times on which we should be more aggressive in shifting towards a clean and sustainable future. Even during the strictest lockdown, Solaric’s bread and butter is reducing electric bills and providing Filipinos with energy alternative. Our engineering and energization teams are continuing to work hard to service the needs of our clients and continue to rely on solar energy, and turn to renewables and sustainables for every Filipino.

AIRSAFE CARE 101: WHEN TO REPLACE FILTERS

YOU NOW HAVE MORE REASONS TO GO #AIRSAFE

It’s been a year ever since the lockdowns have started and almost a year since we launched our AirSAFE series. To ensure that your units are still filtering the best out of your air, take a quick check if your filters are still in good condition and if not, it might be the best to replace them now to ensure AirSAFE’s efficiency.

One of the most unique advantages of AirSAFE is that it comes with replacement filters available for purchase anytime. This is something that the Solaric’s R&D department kept in mind when we noticed the scarcity of available replacement filters in the market. Solaric has all filters in stock for all the unit models: AS40, AS95, AS-MAX and bladeless fan. There’s no need for the hassle to buy a brand new unit if your filter becomes too dirty to use.

Replacing filters

The frequency on when to replace the filters vary from 3 to 6 months, in some cases up to one year, depending on how heavily polluted the area is. There is no exact filter replacement indicator in the unit to tell you if the filters need to be replaced but your AirSAFE units will give you a signal if it does. For example, if the light indicator continues to be red with no signs of changes even after an hour of turning on the machine can signify that your filters are needed to be replaced. There are also ways to prolong the lifespan of your filters by vacuuming and drying them under the sun every once in a while. Make sure to wear masks and gloves if possible for safety.

Filter costs

Every filter sets purchased comes with a Carbon/Cold Catalyst and Antibacterial Cloth/HEPA filter. The pre-filter that filters out larger particles in the AS95 and AS-MAX models are not replaceable, and can be washed to clean instead to ensure AirSAFE’s efficiency.

AS 40 H11 filter: P1,900
AS 40 H13 filter: P2,750
AS 95 H11 filter: P3,500
AS 95 H13 filter: P4,800
AS MAX H13 filter: P6,900

Why choose AirSAFE?

With built-in Japanese pollution sensors, the AirSAFE can detect harmful airborne particles that are invisible to the naked eye. It comes with powerful motors and fans that automatically speeds up to address the pollution level, sucking and filtering the air through its 7 stages of filtration. AirSAFE has a higher CADR or clean air delivery ratio values compared to other brands and comes with a 99.995% HEPA filter and cold catalyst/carbon filters. The internal UV box located on the AirSAFE units can easily kill tiny harmful organisms trapped inside the filter box.

The Solaric’s bladeless fan is also not just your ordinary fan in the market. It is a purfier and bladeless fan in one! It comes with dual HEPA and carbon filters on the sides, providing clean air and it is also very safe for kids!

ARE YOU SUMMER-READY THIS 2021?

Summer is just around the corner and the temperature keeps on getting warmer day by day, until it’s almost impossible to deal with the summer heat without aircon. The power demand and increase in electric bills are bound to happen – but there are still a few ways to alleviate this future distress and enjoy a “guilt-free AC” summer. That decision is up to you, when you are ready to harness the power of solar.

Solar is the new normal in 2021

Being a tropical country, the Philippines is blessed to have the sun’s abundant energy all year round but at the same time, we face tremendous heat especially during the summer months. Others might see it as a hassle but for renewable energy advocates and Solaric, this is just the perfect reason why Solar is a good alternative choice for energy.

The COVID-19 pandemic brought us the new normal and most of us up to now are still staying indoors, working and studying at home, which can inevitably cause your electric bills to go higher than what you’re accustomed to. Hence, last year’s “bill shock”. Most of us are not ready for that but for Solaristas who invested earlier on in the game and came prepared, they experienced the benefits of their wisest long-term investment. Their residential rooftops have become their own power plants and they can chill while enjoying their ACs on full blast.

Lowering your bills through Solar

We all know that everyone wants to enjoy guilt-free AC but we are always hesitant with the price tag. After all, the aircon uses a lot of electricity and eventually, we’ve got to pay for that electric bill. With solar, you get to worry less as you become your own power producer and generate your own electricity to lower your electric bills. A grid tie solar system is connected both on your utility grid and solar panels. It uses solar energy as the first priority power to be used to cover your daytime consumption, enabling you to cut down the cost of your utility bills.

A typical grid tie solar system can last for more than 25 years and a single solar panel can slash your electric bill to 400 pesos or more! Through the “Net Metering” program, the excess power that your system generates can be converted into credits which can be used to offset your night time and weekend energy usage.

What happens when you fill your entire roof up with solar panels? The result is goodbye electric bill and hello guilt- free AC! Now you’re ready to harness the power of solar!

SOLAR TIP: USE THE POWER OF THE SUN WHEN IT’S OUT!

Besides putting up solar in the right orientation to avoid shading and energy losses, there are still numerous things you can look into to fully maximize your solar system investment.

Plan and size up your loads

Doing the power-intensive chores during the sun’s peak at around 9 am to 3 pm will help match your heavy daytime loads with the solar energy you are getting. It is around these times that your house is primarily being powered by solar energy on a typical sunny day. One of our clients named Tony even shared a running joke around their house ever since getting a solar system, that whether they cook a pizza or use the dryer, they have to use it before the sun goes down.

Net Metering

How can you displace your night time loads? Does it mean that solar is only practical during daytime? Not really, since it is possible to offset your night time usage through the Net Metering program. How does it work? During the daytime when the sun is out, your energy consumption is powered by the sun through your solar. With the excess or surplus power harvested by your solar, you earn “credits” from the utility (Meralco). These credits will be used to offset your night time consumption. This is seen on the back of the electric bill under Net Metering.

Sometimes, when the exported power is A LOT, then the result is a zero bill. You have to note that it will take more net metering credits to match and wipe out night time consumption on a kWh basis as it has less value compared to the retail energy rates.

How can this be done? Install a system that is huge, massive, gigantic.

POP or Peak off Peak with Net Metering

Meralco’s POP program is an alternative energy pricing scheme wherein customers can avail lower electricity costs during the off-peak hours. Combining this with Net Metering for evening consumption with Solar catering the daytime peak rates is a good way to accelerate your return of investment and ultimately slash your monthly electric bills when planned correctly.

Size up your system

If you haven’t completely maximized yet the capacity of your roof/space to have solar panels, you may try to save up and invest later to add more just like plug and play. This is what is also in Doug Kramer’s mind when he is building his dream house, that he already has everything ready and “naka-abang na ang lahat”, so that in time when he has another budged to expand his solar system, he’ll just need to add more panels in the future.

Invest in a reputable solar company

Find a solar company who knows what they are talking about and will help you streamline the entire process of getting a solar system from the initial recommendation and site survey down to installation, energization, turnover, and process of Net metering. Net Metering is necessary to get the full potential of a Solar installation but the approval process can be tedious and there is a strict adherence to electrical and distribution codes between the LGU, ERC and the utility provider for a safe and speedy approval which is why with a big investment such as solar, it is important to look and choose a good solar provider that knows how to do its job well and ensure you the best possible results in the long run.

I AM HAPPY TO TURN ON THE SUN!

Who would have thought that two days after installing solar, you would be facing a pandemic lockdown, leaving you with no choice but to stay at home 24/7? This is exactly what happened to Tony, a Solaric client from Pasig City – and he definitely does not regret his choice of going solar months ago.

Watch the full video here!

Life Before Solar

Tony’s average electric bill prior to solar installation ranged between Php 14,000 to Php 16,000.

“Sometimes it even reaches 20k, when we use appliances more than the usual, and especially during the summer months when the scorching heat we experience makes us turn on the air-conditioning units to alleviate the heat,” explains Tony

He Decided To Do It In One Go

“Ive been following Solaric on social media for several years. So when we decided to renovate the house, we decided to invest in solar,” adds Tony.

Solaric’s initial recommendation was a 6kWp grid tie system composed of 20 LG solar panels. However, Tony wanted to maximize his roof space so he could maximize solar technology. Thus, he decided to go all out and do it in one go. He filled his entire roof with solar panels.

Just two days after the solar installation, the ECQ happened and with everyone staying at home 24/7 working and studying, his electric consumption definitely doubled. But even will the 3hp aircons running during the day, televisions, and appliances running longer and harder than ever before, his electric bill still significantly decreased

Life After Solar

Now, he has a 10.56kWp Grid Tie solar power system consisting of 32 LG 330W solar panels. This ultimately slashed his bill to Php 6,000 to Php 7,000! “That’s 50% reduction, and it’s significant,” emphasizes Tony.

When asked why he chose LG Solar, he said, “I chose LG Solar panels because of their amazing offer of 25-year warranty, plus the brand’s reputation of reliability and efficiency.” Truly, if this Solaric client from Pasig can do it, then you can do it too!

Your Call

It is definitely not too late to be energy prepared and protect yourself from another bill-shock that may happen this year. Apart from savings that you get from solar energy, you get to share the excess power to your neighbors – because the truth is, even our energy-starved grid operators need a boost when the electricity lines are overwhelmed.

NOW IS THE TIME TO GO SOLAR!

A long-term investment like solar is no joke and does not come cheap in many aspects. You want it to be the best as possible, worth the money, safe, and highly efficient for your needs. Going solar can be like buying a car; you need to make sure you look for a good and reputable solar provider in the Philippines.

Research

It is always best to do read, review, and research, to learn and understand what you are getting. A good and well-built solar system can last for more than 25 years which is why it is important to look for a solar company with experience and expertise in the field. You may consider the years they have been on the solar business, the scope and variety of projects they have installed, the reviews, recommendations, testimonies available online from previous clients, or simply from how they treat their potential clients

Quality Comes First

Do not be fooled by the cheap prices flooding the market. Cheaper equipment and materials may look food upfront but may cause problems later on. Substandard solar panels and equipment may underperform and compromise your system and even your house or facility, not to mention that it may cause fires! Find a reputable solar company that can provide you quality products and service, one that carries Tier1 brands for solar at reasonable prices. Weigh your options and do not be afraid to ask for other choices that cater to your particular lifestyle and needs.

Good Aftersales

Nothing is more drastic than being a victim of fly-by-night installers and bogus providers. A good solar company will walk you through the entire solar process from inquiry, contract signing, installation, and aftersales. Make sure that your solar provider will design your system based on your needs. Your solar provider in the Philippines should be easy to contact and get answers from and guarantee a troubleshoot fix in case you will encounter any problems on your solar system in the future.

SOLAR: THE PRACTICAL CHOICE

https://solaric.com.ph/blog/solar-provider-philippines/

As the Philippines continues to switch to alternative sources of energy, we have different renewable energy options to rely on. We have the wind turbines of Illocos, hyrdrothermal plant in Benguet, and geothermal plant in Bicol, amongst others. What makes solar different yet the most practical for us Filipinos?

Philippines Is Sitting On A Gold Mine

Blessed with the sun’s energy as a tropical country, the Philippines is a good and strategic place to invest in solar. With proper space and sunlight, solar panels can almost be installed everywhere, from rooftops to vacant lots, and guaranteed to produce energy for you.

Every year, we always experience power outages especially during the summer months where the demand is too high and the energy supply falls in yellow and red alerts. Harnessing this abundance source of energy will not only generate electric savings for a solar homeowner, but the excess energy will help in the power supply shortage that is caused by the shutdown of power plants and reduce the overall electricity cost for the public on a broader sense.

Space And Time Saving

Compared to other sources of renewable energy, it’s far more complicated to install a wind turbine, dam, and geothermal plant in an urban populated area. Sunny days are even more common and predictable compared to windy and rainy days here in our country. Solar is definitely more scalable and affordable to install, which makes greater opportunity for a common Filipino who cannot build their own wind, hydro, or geothermal plants to achieve and benefit from sustainable energy especially with the declining costs and recent improvement in solar technology throughout these years.

Building more coal plants will require a lot of permits and years to build and yet installing solar on a residential area will only take 2 to 3 days. The excess solar energy that is not consumed during daytime will automatically export and blend with the grid, benefitting everyone almost immediately. Traditional answers make lesser sense wherein in today’s technology, we can invest for more clean, efficient and ubiquitous source of energy, helping us better understand what makes solar different.
