Solar packages for Cebu homes, matched to your bill.

It depends on what the "5 kW" describes. 8 × 620 W panels (4.96 kWp) on a 5 kW Deye hybrid inverter come to about ₱179,000–₱210,000 installed without a battery, or ₱227,000–₱266,000 with one 5.12 kWh battery, at our list prices (October 2026). If "5 kW" only names the inverter, our packages built on it run from ₱110,000–₱129,000 (Starter, 2.48 kWp) to ₱240,000–₱282,000 (Home · Backup-first, 3.72 kWp with 2 batteries).

These are indicative prices from our published component prices, shown as a ±8% range. The site assessment confirms the final, itemised price.

With 620 W panels, 8 panels make 4.96 kWp, which is what most people mean by a 5 kW system. That is roughly 22 m² of panels, so plan on about 31 m² of roof: only about 70% of a roof face is usable once spacing and edge setbacks are allowed for. In Cebu it makes about 558 kWh a month on average at our cautious yield of 1,350 kWh per kWp a year: less in December and January, more in March and April.

For many Cebu homes, yes. On VECO ₱14.89/kWh (Sep 2026), our calculator sizes 8 panels (4.96 kWp) for bills of about ₱10,400–₱11,800 a month when the goal is the lowest bill, or ₱8,600–₱9,700 when the goal includes backup (it then covers more of the bill). A bigger bill doesn't automatically mean a bigger system is better: exports earn only the generation charge, so size to the energy you use.

The quickest check is the configurator on this page or the calculator with your own bill.

Yes. Every package uses a Deye hybrid inverter, so a battery can be added without replacing the inverter. At today's list price each 5.12 kWh LiFePO4 battery adds ₱52,000 for the battery itself; fitting it, any wiring changes and the utility's review are confirmed at the time.

Two things to plan for: the circuits you want on backup must be wired to the inverter's backup port, and adding storage to a net-metered system can count as a modification that the utility reviews like a new application (ERC Resolution No. 15, s. 2025). If you think you'll add a battery, say so in your quote request so the proposal can plan the backup circuits from the start.

Only the circuits wired to the backup port stay on, not the whole house. We plan on one 5.12 kWh battery delivering about 3.69 kWh (our estimate: 80% usable, 90% conversion), which is around 7.4 hours of essentials such as a fridge, fans, lights and Wi-Fi (about 0.5 kW). A 1 HP inverter aircon plus essentials draws roughly 0.8–1 kW, so each battery covers about 3½–4½ hours, and the battery's power limit matters as well as its energy.

We recommend two batteries whenever an aircon is on backup, which is why the Home, Family and Large Home backup-first packages carry two or three. Starter · Backup-first is sized for essentials.

No. They are indicative package configurations built from our published component prices, shown as a ±8% range and before any personal discount code. Your final price follows a site assessment: roof space and shading can change the panel count, your peak load can change the inverter, and long cable runs or extra protection can add materials. Every line stays itemised, so you can see exactly what changed. VAT treatment and warranty terms are confirmed in your proposal.

Some costs don't shrink with the array. The ₱45,000 inverter is the same on 4 panels as on 6, and each battery is ₱52,000 however many panels the roof holds. That is why Starter · Budget-first works out to about ₱48,300 per kWp while Large Home · Budget-first is about ₱38,200. Batteries add cost without adding any kWp, so the backup-first packages cost the most per kWp: from about ₱57,600 (Large Home · Backup-first) to about ₱70,200 (Home · Backup-first). That is storage you are paying for, not a worse deal on panels.

A 3 kW system with 620 W panels is 5 panels (3.10 kWp) on a 5 kW Deye hybrid inverter. At our list prices (October 2026) that is about ₱127,000–₱150,000 installed without a battery, ₱175,000–₱206,000 with one 5.12 kWh battery and ₱223,000–₱262,000 with two. It makes about 349 kWh a month on average in Cebu.

Small systems cost more per kWp because the inverter costs the same whatever the array size, so check whether a slightly larger package suits your bill. These are indicative ±8% ranges; the site assessment confirms the itemised price.
