Toyota
- Main Dealership with Workshop
- System Size: 99.83 kWp
- Completion: 24-Jul-2025
Project Summary
Toyota Dasmariñas is one of the busiest dealerships in Cavite, running a modern showroom, high-volume service centre, parts department, and customer facilities across a site where air conditioning, workshop equipment, and lighting draw a substantial and consistent daytime load. It is also Solaren’s second Toyota installation, which brought its own expectations around delivery standard and system quality.
The more demanding aspect of this project was not the installation itself but the paperwork. Net metering under Meralco in Cavite carries administrative and technical requirements that trip up solar contractors without direct experience navigating them. Solaren worked through the full Meralco net metering process on behalf of the dealership, resolving the compliance requirements and ensuring the connection was completed correctly so the system could export without issue from day one.
The 99.83 kWp array now generates over 147,000 kWh annually, delivering ₱1.6 million in yearly savings on a 4.2 year payback, with the dealership able to direct that budget toward sales and service operations rather than utility bills.
For commercial properties in the Meralco franchise area, net metering in the Philippines is a significant part of the value equation and one that requires an installer who knows how to get it done.
