1st Mega Savers Magalang
- Appliance Store Rooftop System
- System Size: 50.14 kWp
- Completion: 12-Aug-2023
Project Summary
1st Mega Savers is a top appliance retailer of the region that is reputed to promote trusted brands to both households and businesses in Central Luzon. Their retail outlets are open late hours with full lighting and air conditioning, which provides high and constant demand for electricity during the day. Solaren mounted a grid-tied rooftop solar system to match those loads, specifically a grid-tied solar system to minimize a substantial portion of the electricity bill at the store without any impact on operations. The system integrates seamlessly with the existing building infrastructure and operates without disrupting the daily operations of the building, especially during peak sales days. To 1st Mega Savers, solar energy will be an easy choice in business, reducing overheads in the process of reaffirming their dedication to the brighter, more efficient ways of doing things. The store visitors might not see that something is happening on the roof; however, it is there, day by day, silently working and making the retailing experience better.
