SOLAR FAQ
Solar Systems Philippines Inc. specializes in complete solar solutions. Our in-house team manages everything from design and supply to installation and successful commissioning. Whether it’s solar panels, inverters, or mounting structures, we ensure that all components come from reputable, top-tier manufacturers within the solar energy industry.
Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity, which can be directly used to power your household appliances. If your system produces more energy than you need, any surplus power is exported to the utility grid, and you will be compensated for it.
By producing your own solar energy, you can significantly lower your electricity bills. The actual savings depend on your consumption and the system size. Contact us to get an accurate estimate of your potential savings.
Solar panels are designed to last for at least 25 years, with manufacturers guaranteeing their performance for this period. All solar panels installed by SSPI come with a minimum 25-year power warranty, and 1-year material and workmanship warranty.
Our solar systems come with real-time performance monitoring software, which you can easily access from your computer or mobile device, allowing you to track energy generation at any time.
Yes! Solar Systems Philippines Inc. offers various battery storage solutions. Contact us to get an accurate battery storage applicable to your home and business.
Solar power systems are typically maintained twice a year. The primary tasks include cleaning the solar panels and checking electrical connections. Our maintenance service is optional, and pricing is based on the system size. A detailed cost estimate will be provided in your free quotation.
Solar Photovoltaic (PV) refers to technology that converts sunlight into electricity. Unlike Solar Thermal systems, which use the sun’s energy to heat water or air, Solar PV systems generate electricity, making them a more applicable and efficient option for powering homes and businesses.
Switching to solar energy can help reduce your electricity bills, decrease your carbon footprint, and provide a reliable, renewable source of power. Solar systems also increase property value and offer energy independence, protecting you from rising electricity prices.
The amount of roof space required depends on the size of your solar system and your energy needs. On average, a 5kW solar system requires around 30 to 35 square meters of roof space. Our team will assess your roof’s suitability during the consultation to ensure the optimal placement.
Solar panels will still generate electricity on cloudy days, though their efficiency will be lower compared to bright, sunny days. However, they do not generate electricity at night. To make use of energy after dark, you can either store energy in batteries or rely on the grid.
The cost of installing a solar power system depends on factors such as the size of the system, your location, and the type of components used. Our team can provide you with a free quotation based on your specific needs, including all costs involved in design, procurement, installation, and commissioning.
In some regions, there may be government incentives, rebates, or tax credits available to encourage the adoption of solar energy. These incentives can reduce the upfront costs of installing a solar system. We can help you navigate available programs in your area to maximize your savings.
Most roof types can support the installation of solar panels, including pitched, flat, and even commercial roofs. During the initial consultation, our engineers will assess the condition and suitability of your roof to ensure it can safely support the solar system.
Solar panels are built to be durable and long-lasting, but in the event of damage or malfunction, they typically come with warranties covering repair or replacement. Eigen Energy ensures that all installations come with manufacturer-backed warranties, giving you peace of mind regarding performance and longevity.
Yes, it’s possible to install solar panels on apartment buildings or high-rises, though there may be additional considerations such as permissions from building management and space limitations. We can explore other solutions like solar sharing or community solar programs, depending on your building’s setup.
The installation of a solar power system typically takes between 1 to 3 days, depending on the system size and complexity. After installation, the system will undergo a thorough testing phase to ensure it’s functioning correctly before it’s fully commissioned.
Yes! One of the advantages of solar systems is their scalability. If your energy needs increase, you can add more panels or expand the system with additional components such as inverters or batteries. Our team can help you plan for future expansion during the initial design phase.
While solar panels require minimal maintenance, cleaning them once or twice a year to remove dust, dirt, and debris can improve their efficiency. If you’re in an area with heavy rainfall, cleaning may not be as necessary, as rain can naturally wash away dirt.
An on-grid system is connected to the utility grid, allowing you to export excess energy and draw from the grid when needed. An off-grid system, on the other hand, operates independently of the grid, relying on battery storage to supply power when solar generation is insufficient, such as at night.
Solar energy is a clean and renewable energy source that produces no greenhouse gas emissions during operation. By switching to solar, you reduce your reliance on fossil fuels, which helps lower your carbon footprint and contribute to a more sustainable energy future.
Net metering is a system where excess energy produced by your solar panels is sent back to the grid, and you receive credit for it. When your system isn’t generating enough power, you can draw from the grid without additional costs, thanks to the credits accumulated during times of surplus generation.
EV Charging FAQ
Level 1 (AC) – Uses a standard 220V outlet; slow charging (8–12 hours); ideal for home use.
Level 2 (AC) – Uses higher power (7–22 kW); faster charging (4–6 hours); good for homes, businesses, and public areas.
DC Fast Charger – High-powered (30–350 kW); rapid charging (20 mins to 1 hour); best for highways and commercial stations.
No. Use a licensed electrician experienced with EV charger installs.
Certified electricians or EV charger specialists. Check for local code compliance and permits.
Yes. Many chargers are weatherproof and rated for outdoor use.
Mostly.
Level 1 & 2: Use J1772 (North America), compatible with most EVs.
Tesla: Uses its own plug, but adapters are available.
DC Fast Charging: Varies – CCS, CHAdeMO, or Tesla Superchargers.
Home use: Level 2 is recommended.
Power output: Look for 32–50 amps depending on your vehicle and home electrical panel.
Brands like ChargePoint, JuiceBox, Grizzl-E, and Wallbox are top-rated. Look for smart features, durability, and compatibility.
Choose a location (garage or driveway).
Hire a qualified electrician.
Upgrade electrical panel if needed.
Get permits (if required).
Install and test the charger.
