In an effort to improve energy access and sustainability in off-grid communities, the Philippine National Oil Co. (PNOC) has partnered with WindStream Energy Technologies India Pvt Ltd., an Indian renewable energy solutions provider. Through this collaboration, PNOC and WindStream will implement hybrid renewable technology systems in small island communities across the nation using SolarMill technologies.
SolarMill technologies integrate wind and solar energy systems, providing a modular and scalable energy solution that can be easily deployed and installed in remote areas. This partnership is expected to expedite the government’s electrification objectives by utilizing the compact size of SolarMill systems. Additionally, it is hoped that this collaboration will strengthen the hybridization program of the National Power Corporation for its small power utility group in off-grid areas.
WindStream Energy Technologies, founded in 2013, offers hybrid renewable energy systems to approximately 38 countries. By combining diesel-powered generation with solar and wind power, the initiative aims to provide a sustainable energy solution for off-grid communities. This partnership between PNOC and WindStream is a step towards a more sustainable future for the Philippines, as it continues to prioritize energy accessibility for all its citizens.
