Meralco’s Peak / Off-Peak (POP)

 

A solution that allows customers to lower their electric bills by using electricity during off-peak hours, when the generation costs are lower.

Below is a table that summarizes Peak and Off-Peak hours of the week for your easy reference:

 
 
Reduce your overall electricity costs by:
  • Using solar energy during peak hours when demand for electricity and generation charges are higher.
  • Using energy from your electricity provider (e.g. Meralco) during off-peak hours when electricity demand and generation charges are lower.

Gardenia Bakeries Phils., Inc.

“Since the installation of my solar panels 2 years ago, I’ve been enjoying significant savings in my electricity bills. This also gives me personal comfort as I know I’m contributing to the welfare of the environment by using renewable energy in my household.”

to the CEO in PLDT

“With the COVID pandemic and lockdown, I am now working from home. [As the kids are having] online classes, it means more electricity consumption. It’s a no-brainer for me to install a PV solar system through Spectrum as they have the best solution to offset that additional electricity expense and at the same time contribute to a healthy and clean environment.”

“The first consideration for the switch is to reduce electricity bills. We computed that the total investment to switch could be recovered in 3-4 years. Second is it’s truly a renewable source of energy and its clean. In our small way, we will be able to contribute to the reduction of carbon emission/footprint.”

Frequently Asked
Questions

MSpectrum, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Meralco specializing in Renewable Energy for Industrial, Commercial and Residential customers. Spectrum offers end-to-end solutions for your solar needs.

Meralco believes that in order to achieve sustainability, it must innovate its business to adapt with the rapidly changing needs of its customers.

No. Solar can benefit all consumers. The size of the solar system does not depend on the amount of the bill but the amount of “Daytime” consumption. A consumer might be consuming a lot during evening but minimal during daytime. Adding the wattage of all appliances running during the day is the best way to “Right Size” the system.

No. Solar runs during daytime only. If a consumer oversizes the system, he/she will spend more investment, but less benefit. During the day, if the consumer consumes the solar energy, the benefit is the full grid rate of P8 to P9 per kWh. Exported energy through Net Metering is priced based on Generation Cost which is around P4.50 to P5.00 per kWh. This results in a longer payback period for the customer. Net Metering is a program under RA 9513, the Renewable Energy Act, that allows customers to install RE facilities up to 100kW. Any excess electricity not consumed is exported to the DU (Meralco). It is compensated through credits in their monthly bill.

No. The total cost of owning a battery results in an equivalent P/kWh rate of more than P20/kWh. Better to install a “grid-tied” solar system under Net Metering.

Yes. All sources of electricity synchronized with the grid must be applied with the Distribution Utility (DU) and must have a Certificate of Final Electrical Inspection (CFEI) from the LGU. Also, the Net Metering scheme will only take effect once the system is approved by the DU.

Spectrum will cover the entire end-to-end process including Net Metering application and CFEI.

No. For safety purposes, it is mandated by law that the solar system turns off within 2 seconds after power interruption and turns on 10 minutes after power is restored. This is called "Anti-islanding Requirement".

Yes. Solar needs light to produce energy. As long as there is light, however minimal during the day, it will produce electricity.

There is a free online monitoring application that can be installed on your computer or phone. The customer must, however, provide internet connection in his/her house.

Yes. Even if the trusses are wood, as long as the roof is designed properly by an engineer that complies with applicable building code standards when it was constructed. Better consult with Spectrum to be sure.

If “Right-Sized”, the typical payback period is 6 to 7 years.
