- White Plains, Quezon City, Philippines
Project Summary
Not every solar installation is a rooftop job. At the Aguda residence in White Plains, Quezon City, the brief called for something more considered: a pergola-mounted system that integrates solar generation into the architecture of a premium property without compromising its appearance.
Bifacial panels were specified deliberately for this configuration. Mounted on the pergola structure with open sky above and a reflective surface below, bifacial technology captures light from both faces, improving generation across the day without increasing the footprint of the installation. The result is a system that works harder than a conventional rooftop array while sitting elegantly within a beautifully designed outdoor space.
White Plains properties carry premium running costs to match their premium addresses. The Aguda installation brings those electricity costs under control through engineering that respects the aesthetic of the home rather than compromising it.
For homeowners in high-value residential areas where appearance matters as much as performance, solar does not have to look like an afterthought. A correctly specified solar power system can enhance a property rather than simply sitting on top of it.
