Alternative Energy/Solar Power for Home Use [Merged]

[crazy_boy]

would like to know if there is anyone here in tsikot knowledgeable with alternative energy like solar or wind energy? ang taas kasi ng electricity namin sa bahay. currently we're consuming 1400kWh. Down from 2000 1 year ago

we have already changed a lot of our lights to LED na.

thinking of installing grid tie solar system. baka meron pwede mag turo.

Shell Solar ka magtanong, libre consultation. hehehe

meron ba niyan locally?

[s10pao]

meron ba dito nagpa-install sa Solaric?

[Ry_Tower]

meron ba niyan locally?

Dati kasi may office yan dito sa may amin, nalipat lang hindi ko na alam kung saan. So probably sa MM meron din niyan. Para kasing social responsibility program nila yan kaya mura dyan afaik.

Do you use those tonner acs at home? Maybe you should get rid of that, there's a fixed rate on top of the consumption pa diba? Then change all refs and acs to inverter

How long will it take to recover the cost of installing these solar panels naman.

You need to know how much you are consuming during daytime. Jan papasok ang grid tie system. Micro Gti are pretty much plug and play, unlike ng malalaki na grid tie inverters na high voltage ang gamit.

Either mag enphase gti ka which is a us brand or china gti na lesser efficiency pero ok na din kung maliit lang system mo.

Just dont go past your daytime consumption kundi mag export ka at i dagdag din sa bill mo yon. Nagbigay ka na ng kuryente, ikaw pa ang nasingil.

Grid tie system are legal, you just need to apply for net metering kung gusto mo palitan ng meter na umaatras ang current meter mo.

Nagkalat sa Raon ang China made solar panels, charge controller, inverter, VRLA battery. Madali lang naman i DIY. I have that in the farm for night lightning, and battery lang ang maintenance..

If you run water heater, meron solar heaters parang radiator in the roof.. Malakas kumain ng kuryente heaters talo pa aicon lalo na kung babad o hindi makaligo ng walang hot water.

Try to ask around BP Solar and Shell House, parang may program sila sa rural electrification wind+solar yata yun under greenpeace, baka maka discount ka kung under NGO. Mas OK quality nung mga euro made.

ma'am cathy, ano ibigsabihin ng tonner? naka inverter ref na kami sa bahay. yung mga aircon hindi pa.

kailangan talaga mag apply for net metering. pag nag export magbabayad parin ba ako ng kuryente? parang ang labo naman nun. i thought aatras yung meter?


during daytime, halos ref and washing machine lang gumagana. sa gabi lang talaga malakas consumption. i would say around 85% ng electricity namin sa gabi ginagamit.

Malaki, laki rin natipid namin nung magswitch kami sa inverter aircon.

thats what I heard also. but the thing is, mali placement ng aircon namin sa bahay. usually nasa taas ang aircon near the ceiling, but yung sa amin, near the floor yung butas ng window type ac namin. i dont know bakit ganun design ng architect/engineer noon. so problem yung wiring/power supply for the inverter split type aircon.

kung gabi ang big consumption mo, look at meralco's time of use scheme. There is a thread here about it somewhere. Just search for it. Will help you cut down on your cost.

Malaki matitipid mo sa inverter aircon.

Nung nagpalit ako ng 1.5hp panasonic inverter, kumonsumo lang ako ng 2kw for 10hrs. Thats 24pesos per night!

From start fullpower 1100w, after 3 hrs 800w then in 4 hrs around 400w na lang, hanggang kinabukasan na yan.




*crazyboy

Kung malaki ang konsumo mo sa gabi, kelangan talaga net metering, para ma credit sa iyo ang export mo. Yun nga lang hindi st 10pesos per kw ang presyo mo. I think 4pesos per kw lang ang babayaran sa iyo.

i guess inverter aircon muna gawin namin. just have to check kung pano ba ikakabit.

if hindi ako mag net metering, i guess pwede din gti system + time of use.

Bagong wiring/ power supply naman ang ginamit sa inverter aircon namin.

To add, just ask your appliance store to send an installer to survey your home. They would advise you about the correct hp for the aircon and the wiring/ power supply requirements.

Yung aircon that looks like a refrigerator. If you have centralized heating that consumes a lot as well. My Dad had ours removed. Now we only use individual shower heaters.

Maybe it would be less of a hassle to have all your AC replaced with inverter muna? Meron naman ata window type na inverter.

baka previous project ng architect mo hospital kaya ayun na-impluwenstyahan pati sa inyo

naka auto synchronize ba phase? Sa set up ng mga solar energy ng bahay sa mga distributor ( ex. MERALCO) pag nasa grid line nila.

mali kasi ang design ng mga bahay natin, mababa ang kisame at poor ventilation, kaya need mo lagi naka electric fan or aircon.

meron alternative na ung isang portion ng haws ( dirty kitchen), ay pagagawan mo ng light well, parang chimney ang style.

Ang purpose nito ay to vent the warm air inside the house, and in the process create negative pressure to pull cold air in from the ground floor windows or door openings.

OT: Saan ba best i position ang window type aircon? Taas, middle or baba ng wall?
