Philippines eases rules for own-use solar systems

Reported bypv magazine ↗·Sourced by Goodlede

What backs it

The Philippines Department of Energy has streamlined policy guidelines exempting plug-and-play micro-solar systems up to 1 kW from building permits and certificates of compliance, and removing pre-installation clearances and inspection fees for zero-export solar systems, lowering barriers to residential solar adoption.

Worth noting

These are regulatory changes for small residential systems; nationwide adoption and grid impact will depend on consumer uptake and utility cooperation.
