SM Prime hits 100-MW rooftop solar rollout
SM Prime Holdings, Inc. has successfully installed 100 megawatt-peak (MWp) of solar panels on its properties, achieving its renewable energy target.
The company deployed rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) systems across 59 of its properties, utilizing approximately 200,000 solar modules covering 65 hectares.
The Department of Energy (DoE) highlighted this initiative as a significant contribution to the Philippines' transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient energy system.
Energy Secretary Sharon S. Garin emphasized that such clean energy projects reduce reliance on imported fuels, stabilize energy prices for consumers, and bolster the nation's climate commitments.
These solar installations not only cut emissions and decrease grid consumption but also enhance comfort and energy resilience within SM Prime's properties.
The DoE encourages other private companies to emulate SM Prime's commitment by investing in renewable energy and energy efficiency solutions.
