New World Trading Warehouse
- Grocery Warehouse With EV Charging Demand
- System Size: 61.05 kWp
- Completion: 23-Mar-2022
Project Summary
A grocery and dry goods warehouse carries a demanding electrical load profile. Refrigeration, lighting across large floor areas, materials handling equipment, and the growing expectation of EV charging infrastructure all contribute to consumption that runs through the day and rarely drops. For New World Trading in Tarlac City, rising grid tariffs were squeezing margins on a business where cost control is everything.
Solaren installed a 61.05 kWp rooftop system, one of the larger commercial installations in the Tarlac area, producing around 90,000 kWh annually. Three SMA Sunnyboy inverters distribute the load across the array, with Sunova Solar bifacial panels selected for their performance in the high-irradiance Central Luzon climate. System output is tracked continuously through SMA ennexOS and Sunny Portal, giving the operations team full visibility into generation and consumption.
The EV charging component adds a dimension most warehouse solar projects don’t have. Rather than drawing charging load entirely from the grid, the solar array absorbs a meaningful share of that demand during daylight hours, reducing the incremental cost of running chargers through the business day.
At this system size, the annual savings are substantial. New World Trading now controls its largest operating cost rather than absorbing whatever the utility charges.
