BHF Bank
- Branch Banking Location Solarized
- System Size: 11.00 kWp
- Completion: 29-Nov-2014
- Tarlac City, Tarlac, Philippines
Project Summary
A bank branch cannot afford power interruptions. Bank Operations, online infrastructure, air conditioning, and lighting run continuously across every banking hour, and the electricity bill reflects that. For BHF Bank in Tarlac City, that cost has been under control since November 2014.
Twelve years later, the original dual SMA Germany SB5.0 inverters and SolarWorld Germany modules are still running without fault, monitored continuously via SMA ennexOS. Capital was recovered by early 2019. The system has been delivering pure savings for six years since, with no replacements, no service interruptions, and no performance issues.
BHF is a long-standing Solaren client across multiple branches and business types. The bank’s decision to go solar in 2014, well before it became standard practice in the sector, reflects the same forward thinking that runs across the wider BHF network.
For financial institutions where operational continuity is non-negotiable, twelve years of fault-free performance on a fully German-engineered system is the most credible reference available. This is what the best solar company in the Philippines delivers when the equipment and the installation are both done correctly.
