solar panel legalities...

[cesavigosantosjr]

legal advice lang po... sa ibang bansa daw kasi like U.S. pag nag kabit ka ng solar (may mga solar kasi na "grid tie" na pwedeng ka ding mag supply ng kuryente, kung ang nakukuha mong solar power eh sobra, sinu-supply nito pa balik sa electric company) may rebate po ba sa pinas?

[karlkutu]

Meron po ganito ang meralco. Pwede po yan dito, kakabitan ka ng dalawang metro. Metro para dun sa pumapasok sayo at metro para dun sa excess na share mo sa iba. Tapos i minus yun then yung difference babayaran sayo. Applicable po ito sa solar at wind generated na power source.

tnx sa info sir... wala pa naman akong solar... nag babalak palang...

Sir, advice ko bilhin nyo yung galing germany mas matibay po kasi. Yun nga lang may kamahalan. Kung nagtitipid po kayo ok din po yung china. Ang advice ko pa sir sabayan nyo ng wind turbine. para kahit gabi or umuulan makapag generate kayo ng kuryente. meron po yung binebentang ganun package, kung gusto nyo makakita ng sample tignan po nyo yung nasa harap ng rizals park sa manila.

Good idea. Having both wind and solar power running through a charge controller into batteries ensures that you have power in most situations. Also have a small diesel or gasoline generator ready for emergencies, if you want to live off-the-grid.

yes sir. veru much suitable to our calamity prone country. speaking of legalities there is no law regulating the use of this alternative sources of energy. and even department of energy circular for that matter. the government even encourages the people to use this things.

The best solar panels are actually manufactured in the Philippines.

Sunpower has two plants locally. The manufacturing plant is in Sto. Tomas, Batangas, just over the border of Laguna. Laguna Technopark in Binan houses their assembly plant.

Sadly, most of these are exported. They used to have a joint-venture with the Lopezes. One of their companies used to distribute the Sunpower solar cells.

Their solar cells are among the most efficient when it comes to power yield with the smallest footprint. Compared to China-made solar panels, the footprint would be at least 30% smaller with the same output.

If space is a premium, use Sunpower solar cells. If you have a lot of space available and are not concerned about quality, you know where those products come from.

Trivia: the Philippines entry that placed 3rd in the world solar car race held recently in Australia, made by DLSU students, used solar cells donated by Sunpower Philippines.

Yun nga ang medyo cons sa solar power mga bro. Medyo malaki ang kailangan mong area to produce large amount of power. Pero kung personal home use lang, okay na rin sya.

[matsuraqa]

any idea if how it cost, or the cost difference between sunpower and china made?

ang presyo po, mas mahal yung galing germany kaysa sa china. syempre nasa quality po yan. try po nyo yung binebenta sa cdrking kung gusto nyo ng mura.

[firewater]

Mahirap nga lang sa cdrking swertehan kung makakatiming ka na quality ang pagkakagawa nung makukuha mo. Mass produced kasi karamihan sa mga products nila kaya di masyadong reliable ang quality.

tama sir. sakto sa warranty nya pagkasira.

Republic Act 9513, known as the Renewable Energy Law, which encourages the development and use of non-traditional energy sources.

Based on personal experience, you can actually start with a minimum investment of at least 30k. yan po setup ko sa Mindanao. 2 panels of 120 watts each with a 1000w Pure Sinewave inverter.  Grid tie po setup ko.  My electric bill was around 3k back then, now it is just 700 pesos. sulit na sulit yung investment ko. will add more soon. i think it will be even better pag Sunpower panels gamit ko.  China made lang kasi yung gamit ko ngayon pero nakaka save na talaga.

Ok na yung solar at wind. Wag na pong dagdagan ng fossil. Kaya nga tayo naghahanap ng clean energy ay hindi lang sa energy sovereinty but for a sustainable and clean one.

Pa OT mga MODS, hehe!

Sir gerrydave, yung 30k na set up ninyo ano ang space requirement at available na ba mga ganyang set-up dito sa Luzon?

Sa init kasi ng panahon ngayon, tiyak fully charged talaga mga batteries ng solar panels. Im very much interested with this lalo pa at ang taas na ng bayad sa kuryente at in case of black outs due to typhoons (nabuwal na poste etc) at kung diesel/gasoline generators naman gagamitin natin, aba eh baka batuhin tayo ng neighborhood natin sa ingay ng mga generators na ito.

Sorry again mga MODS sa OT, peace!
