A cold storage facility located in the Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental invested in a 99.9 kWp Solaric System in December of 2016. Revisiting it two years later, join us as we take a peek at the actual numbers.

 

There’s a solution to every problem

In 2016, the cold storage company had two main concerns: they wanted to lower their monthly electricity expenses and they wanted to contribute to a safe and green planet. To address the situation, they approached Solaric Corporation, the industry leaders in solar panels in the Philippines. After hammering out the feasibility, details, and projections, the cold storage company made an outright purchase for the solar power system.

 

Turning on the sun

The Solaric System leverages a 99.9 kWp photovoltaic solar installation. The Solaric System was executed within a 45-day period, which included site inspection, securing of permits, and installation. As an investment, the solar installation was set to ROI in 5.6 years.

 

Figures in the raw

Exploring the figures in-depth and based on current solar prices and calculations, ROI will be achieved faster, within 4.5 years. Annual savings are up to 1.35 Million.

 

How that particular Solaric system saves the planet

By installing a Solaric System, the cold storage facility reduced the demand for fossil fuels, limited greenhouse gas emissions, and this shrinks its carbon footprint. To paint a clearer and more vivid picture of how the solar panel installation saves and protects the environment and its benefits, here are some facts derived from this particular solar installation case study in Dumaguete. This Solaric System reduces greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to those from 491 passenger driven vehicles per year. This translates to 307 tons of waste recycled instead of landfilled. The solar panel system also eliminates the same amount of carbon emissions that would result from 216 barrels of oil consumed, 10,502 gallons of gasoline consumed, and 9.7 tons of coal burned each year. The solar energy from this system will prevent CO2 pollution from going into the atmosphere every year, saving 2,417 tree seedlings grown for 10 years, and 45 hectares of forests in one year!

 

Leader in rooftop solar

Solaric has established its name across the renewable industry as a proven and reputable rooftop solar leader. Solaric has installed more than 50% of residential rooftop solar in the country and has delivered significant cost reductions in electricity expenses. Solaric is now zoning in on corporate and industrial projects to offer them the same cost reductions. Welcome to the new generation of solar and turning on the sun.

THE SOLARIC SYSTEM: 3 THINGS YOU DON’T REALIZE UNTIL YOU ACTUALLY TURN ON THE SUN

THE SOLARIC SYSTEM: 3 THINGS YOU DON’T REALIZE UNTIL YOU ACTUALLY TURN ON THE SUN

The Solaric System

In 2013, Lito Mercado took a risk. He made a wise investment, turned on the sun, and switched on his newly-installed Solaric Roof, with the latest solar system in the Philippines, in their house in an exclusive gated subdivision in Makati, Philippines.

 

What’s it like to have solar?

“Well it has been absolutely worth it,” Lito tell Solar Digital Squad. “If you have the finances to make the investment, then do it now. The ROI (return on investment) makes sense. We help save the environment. We spend less. We save more. We have everything to gain and nothing to lose. I wouldn’t hesitate to do it all over again.”

Mercado and his family have always wanted to go solar. Unfortunately, the roof type on their house meant that no solar suppliers would install panels on top of them due to quality and type. In 2013, after yet another round of quotes and site visits, they decided to renovate and replace their roof.

 

Solaric benefits

“The thing with solar is that the power is generated from the sun. Thanks to all these advances in technology today, we can now actually use the sun to our advantage. We can harness the solar energy and use it to power our homes and businesses!” he exclaims.

Here are three things that Lito learned after installing Solaric and turning on the sun for his house.

  • Protect the planet

Compared to other energy sources, solar energy is the renewable with no negative impact to the environment. No greenhouse and no pollution. Going solar means protecting our planet because it’s green, clean and renewable. The typical residential solar power system eliminates an average of three tons of carbon emissions annually, which is equivalent to planting 100 trees each year.

  • Reduce the electric bill

“As a homeowner, I experienced a lower electric bill. This translated to more savings,” added Lito.

Generating your own power as a homeowner means that you will be using less power from the electricity provider. This means lower monthly electric bills. Additionally, through the Net Metering Program, you can also sell your unused electricity that you have generated. Most homeowners with Solaric sell their excess power to the utility company. In doing this, the homeowner becomes a producer AND a consumer (this is the ultimate secret to reducing, if not eliminating, those power bills).

  • Increased home value

Solaric homes have higher property values. As more people are educated on solar, the demand for solar increases exponentially. A home that produces power and has its own solar power system has increased home value. Even a standard 5-kilowatt Solaric PV system means that there is added resale value to your house.

“I didn’t realize that my investment in Solaric would be so rewarding!” exclaimed Lito Mercado, while pointing to the signature sunlight switch logo of Solaric.
