Solaric Philippines

Energy crisis is real.

Yesterday the grid simply ran out. A red alert condition was called and utilities across Luzon had to ration power so the grid would not collapse. There are a number of complex reasons why this is so but to put it bluntly, we don’t have enough energy to fuel our economy, way of life or run airconditioning for this brutal heat.

Social Media is on fire with people demanding lower energy costs, bill transparency and lately to defend the right to have Solar.

Names have been called, and Solaristas were painted and red tagged as if it is some rouge guerilla unit undermining the might of an unquestionable monopoly.

It could be said that there are forces out there who do not want you to put solar on your roof without jumping hoops and hurdles.

Solaric processed thousands of Net Metering installations throughout the Philippines. We have seen it all take it astride and just keep dishing them out daily. Some of their reasons plausible and others utter nonsense but at the end of the day, the business owner, home owner and every day Juan de la Cruz wants options on how they pay and source their electricity.

For years, Filipino families and businesses have turned to solar because electricity prices in the Philippines remain among the highest in Asia. People are not installing solar out of rebellion — they are trying to survive rising power costs, and if its net metered, be a part of building up our Nations energy reserves by sharing its power with a clearly starved energy grid.

As one of the country’s largest and vocal solar installation companies, we fully support proper engineering, safety standards, and legal compliance. Every system should be designed correctly, installed safely, and documented properly.

At the same time, we also recognize the reality many customers face:
• permitting can take far too long
• requirements can become excessive or simply unattainable
• approvals can drag on for months or even years
When the process becomes too difficult, some people inevitably look for shortcuts. That is not the long-term solution.

The answer is not unsafe installations but making the path for legitimate installs easier for ordinary Filipinos.
The answer is a better system:
✔ faster permitting
✔ clear and reasonable requirements
✔ Uniform and fair safety standards
✔ wider access to affordable clean energy
We believe Filipinos deserve solar that is:
SAFE.
LEGAL.
PROFESSIONALLY INSTALLED.
AND ACCESSIBLE.

If you are investing in solar, choose experienced installers who stand behind their work, comply with standards, and will still be here years from now to support your system.

The future of energy in the Philippines should be responsible — not restrictive.

Not all is bleak, National goverment has heard the growing outrage and directed concerned agencies and LGUs to get their act together in making Solar more accessible, easier and yes the all important Safety First.

Thinking about going solar, but not sure where to start?

At Solaric, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead of offering cookie-cutter packages, we design bespoke solar installations tailored to your needs. Because for us, it’s not just about selling solar panels—it’s about delivering real outcomes by turning on the sun for you.

When it comes to residential solar, there are two main options:

1. Grid-Tie Systems
These systems maximize return on investment. They’re more affordable since they don’t use batteries, and instead rely on net metering—exporting excess energy to the grid in exchange for credits.

2. Hybrid (Battery-Based) Systems
Think of this as the “laging handa” option. These systems store excess energy in batteries, giving you peace of mind during outages or uncertain times. Like grid-tie systems, they can still export energy once the batteries are fully charged.

Historically, most installations (about 4:1) have been grid-tie due to faster ROI. But recently, with growing concerns around energy security, more homeowners are considering hybrid systems.

Before recommending a solution, our solar engineers will guide you through a few key questions—not to upsell you, but to make sure you get the best value for your investment:

1. What’s your goal?
Is it simply to reduce your electricity bill? Or are you aiming for greater energy independence and protection against rising costs or outages?

2. How much solar do you need?
This can range from a small system covering daytime usage to a full-scale setup that turns you into a prosumer—generating more energy than you consume.

Many of our forward-thinking clients choose hybrid systems designed to power essential loads 24/7. Compared to traditional diesel generators, this is a far more sustainable and future-ready solution.

Others prefer to start small—covering daytime needs and testing the benefits—while keeping the option to expand later. Our modular hybrid systems make this easy, with batteries that can be added like Lego blocks.

Right now, demand for solar is at an all-time high. Battery stocks nationwide have been moving fast—what used to last 3 months now sells out in just weeks.

The good news: our supply chain remains stable, and we continue to offer solar panels at pre-crisis pricing. Our main limitation is installation capacity, not materials.

Because of this surge in demand, we may not always be able to provide immediate customized quotes or conduct free site visits for every inquiry. In some cases, we’ll start with ballpark estimates before proceeding further.

No matter where you are in your solar journey, we’re here to help you find the right solution.
