Grid Tied System for 5 kW from Solaric

#solarpanels at every rooftop

Grid tied system from Solaric


Solaric-Residential-Solar


Solaric Solux BLACK solar panel 265M

This 5 kW system costs P463,000 system from Soloric (excluding  installation of P28,000.  Grid tied means it is connected to the power supply from the utility and does not have batteries.  The system consist only of solar panels and an inverter.  When there is a brown out, there is no power.   It works only during daytime

This is  competitively priced system since the benchmark price is $4.17 per watt installed for off grid. So a 5 kw would cost about a million.  But the drawback here is that the payment terms is 50% down and 50% upon installation.

That is where solar financing comes in from Majorem Lending

The 5 kW system gives a net savings of about P8,000  per month.  and recommended for homes with electric bill of P15,000 to 20,000 per month.  Total electric production would be about P2.4 million over a 25 year period (600% return.)

Solaric portable power system

Their power generator consist of an inverter and battery and can run led lamps and an electric fan.  Costs only P8.000

Inverters are not tops in power savings consumption; solar aircon are; are also trouble prone

Many of us have been led to believe that aircons equipped with inverters are the best when it  comes to saving electrical power consumption.

Well, as the graph here would show, they are not.

They are also trouble prone since they come equipped with computer box (just like our "modelo" cars)  They are prone to electrical surges or even lightning strikes that are not direct (electromagnetic pulse -  emp)  Many inverter equipped aircons have gone kaput for no apparent reasons and you have to buy as in the efi cars, expensive computer boxes.

Solar aircons come with conventional, non electronic units that are sturdy and not prone to electronic malfunction.
