Why Solar Makes Sense in San Juan
San Juan is the smallest city in the Philippines by land area, but its dense residential and commercial property base makes it a strong solar installation market within the Meralco franchise area. Many San Juan homes sit on smaller lots with limited roof area, which means system sizing precision matters more here than in lower-density areas. A correctly sized 2 kWp to 5 kWp system on a San Juan property can still eliminate the majority of a household’s monthly Meralco bill through net metering.
San Juan sits within Metro Manila’s average solar irradiance band of 5.1 kWh per square meter per day. Properties in Addition Hills, Kabayanan, and Salapan with south or east-facing roof sections above 15 square meters of unshaded area are viable candidates. Commercial properties along N. Domingo Street and Granada Street benefit from larger systems. Our guide to solar panel system sizing in the Philippines explains how available roof area determines maximum system size.

How Net Metering Works for San Juan Meralco Customers
All San Juan properties served by Meralco are eligible for the ERC Net Metering Program under Republic Act 9513. Once your solar system is commissioned and Meralco installs the bi-directional meter, excess electricity generated flows to the Meralco grid and earns credits on your next monthly bill. Credits roll over month to month. Learn more about how net metering works for Meralco customers.

Frequently Asked Questions from San Juan Residents
Does Meralco serve all of San Juan?
Yes. Meralco is the distribution utility for all of San Juan City. All residential and commercial properties in San Juan connected to the Meralco grid are eligible for solar panel installation and net metering under the ERC Net Metering Program.
Can I install solar on a small roof in San Juan?
Yes, provided there is at least 15 to 18 square meters of unshaded roof area. A 2 kWp to 3 kWp system fits on a compact San Juan roof and still delivers meaningful monthly savings. Our engineer will assess your specific roof during the free site assessment and design the maximum viable system for your available space.
How long does solar installation take in San Juan?
Physical installation typically takes one to two days for a residential system. The full process from site assessment to Meralco net metering commissioning, including San Juan LGU permit processing and Meralco interconnection, typically takes 2 to 4 months.
Do I need a building permit for solar in San Juan?
Yes. A Building Permit and Electrical Permit from the San Juan City LGU are required for all solar panel installations. The CFEI is also a required document for the Meralco net metering application. SolarPro Install handles all permit filings as part of the installation service.
Is a townhouse in San Juan eligible for solar?
Yes, provided your townhouse has an individual Meralco account registered in your name and at least 15 square meters of unshaded roof area. Townhouses with flat concrete rooftops in San Juan can use ballasted tilt-frame systems that do not require roof penetrations. Row townhouses where the roof is shared require coordination with neighbors and a co-owner waiver may be needed depending on your property title structure.
