In the Philippines, over 2,000 islands lack stable grid access, relying on costly and polluting diesel generators. Projects like Limasawa Island’s solar-diesel microgrid (by SUMEC) highlight the shift toward hybrid systems369.
Philippines’ Energy Challenges:
- Island Electrification: Remote areas like Paluan Village use microgrids combining solar, batteries, and diesel (e.g., 1.26 MW diesel gensets)9.
- Cost and Reliability: Traditional diesel remains a stopgap, but hybrid systems reduce fuel use by 30-50%6.
- Industrial Growth: Mining and tourism sectors in Palawan and Mindanao need robust power solutions.
Leton Power’s Edge:
- Hybrid Readiness: Our generators integrate seamlessly with renewables, ideal for microgrids.
- Durability: Anti-corrosion designs withstand tropical climates, as seen in SUMEC’s 25-year solar projects36.
- Scalability: From 3 kVA for small communities to 3750 kVA for resorts and factories.
