Net Metering in the Philippines: How It Works
Export excess solar to the grid and earn bill credits under DOE/ERC rules.
How credits work
When your system produces more than you consume, excess kWh can be exported. Your distribution utility applies credits according to net metering rules.
Documents and inspection
Expect as-built plans, electrical permits, equipment specs, and a utility inspection. Incomplete paperwork is the #1 delay — we prepare files with install quality in mind.
FAQs
Is net metering available nationwide?
The policy framework is national; timelines and forms vary by distribution utility. We adapt to Meralco, VECO, DLPC, MORE, CENECO, and others.
