Tañedo Poultry Farm in San Jose, Tarlac, is a straightforward operation built around a clear energy problem. Fans, cooling pads, and lighting run hard through the day, driving a peak daytime load that makes midday electricity the farm’s single largest operating cost. No storage was needed and none was installed. What Tañedo required was a precisely configured grid-tied system that would perform at its best exactly when the sun and the load peak together.

Solaren mapped shade across the rooftops, grouped strings by matching tilt and azimuth, and sized conductors to keep voltage rise under control at full output. The 99.75 kWp system now strikes down the midday bill while net metering ensures that lighter generation days do not waste available yield.

The result is a farm that plans feed and harvest cycles against stable, predictable operating costs rather than fluctuating utility statements. With the operation now performing consistently, management is evaluating a capacity expansion and working with Solaren to optimise the system size for the increased load.

For growing poultry operations across Central Luzon, industrial solar power systems for farms need to be sized not just for today’s load but for where the operation is heading.
