Conversation Highlights:

• The Government along with the Department of Energy is promoting Renewable energy with action plans and big goals for 2023.
• Promoting solar with benefits, and incentives are a good strategy but subsidies from our government will truly help the big players to move to greener energy sources.
• We will reach 10 years of operation in the Philippines and achieve more than 20 years of operation globally, overall with more than 300MW installed globally.

How has 2022 been for SolarNRG?

It has been very good. The covid 19 pandemic was very hard here in the Philippines so after years of uncertainty in the Filipino economy, 2022 was a year of recovery for us and all industries. We are proud to say that we have grown to become one of the largest solar roof-top companies in the Philippines winning several awards which recognize our work and dedication.

What is your view on the Philippines’ solar market at present?

It is growing steadily faster. The Government along with the Department of Energy is promoting Renewable energy with action plans and big goals for 2023. The regulations proposed and hopefully, its incentives will increase the need for solar in every new commercial and industrial building.

What according to you needs to be improved to further expand the solar sector in the region?

There is a lot of interest in solar, especially for big commercial, utility, and industrial buildings. I believe that to expand further, there should be more subsidies, especially for commercial. Promoting solar with benefits, and incentives are a good strategy but subsidies from our government will truly help the big players to move to greener energy sources.

What are the milestones SolarNRG is aiming for in 2023?

This 2023 we aim to reach 30MW total installed and operational in the nation. We will reach 10 years of operation in the Philippines and achieve more than 20 years of operation globally, overall with more than 300MW installed globally. There are challenges in growing so fast and handling so many projects. We take care of our clients and projects even after installation so we have put a lot of effort into our maintenance team and customer service as well to continue getting our clients’ satisfaction.

Anything else you would like our readers to know?

A solar system can be designed in so many ways and the overall installation can be of good quality or not, there are many variables that can change the outcome. A solar system does not need much maintenance but being an investment that will last for more than 25 years, you should choose wisely. From our part, we handle customers with honesty and take pride in our integrity, and we value building long-term relationships. It is important to choose a solar company well: look beyond prices only, look at the portfolio of installed systems, completed projects, satisfied clients, and reputation. Quality of installation as well as aftercare service is extremely important for a long-term investment such as a solar system.
