Is Solar Worth It in Quezon City?
QC's mix of dense residential neighborhoods and large lot subdivisions makes it ideal for rooftop solar. The typical 3–4 bedroom home in Fairview, Commonwealth, or Project 8 can offset 70–90% of its Meralco bill with a properly-sized 4–6kW on-grid system.
Because QC is fully within Meralco's service territory, the net metering application process is standardized and well-documented. Many Quezon City barangays have already approved dozens of solar installations, meaning local engineers are familiar with the permit requirements.
