SolarCity: High Powered Solar Panels in Dumaguete

Solar Project Begins Expansion at Satellite Farm

By Dean Sinco | Project Leader

Recognized as the country’s Most Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Campus in 2015, Foundation University has never halted its venture towards environment-friendly practices. The solar-power project stands as a testament to the University’s commitment towards advocating environmental preservation and sustainability.

As the reigning most eco-friendly and sustainable school nationwide, Foundation University invested in the installation of its very own solar panels beginning with the North Campus 3 years ago and just recently its Main Campus.

The University aims to reduce its carbon footprint and be able to contribute its role in environmental damage to the community. It believes that solar energy is a reliable and renewable source of power which is a very viable way in addressing environmental issues.

The practice does not only aim to save on huge amount of payments to local energy providers, but it is also geared to lessen the amount of carbon footprints acquired in the production of energy.

In fact, the solar panels installed, on top of the buildings in the two campuses, supply the needed amount of energy consumption for the different offices of the institution.

From the main campuses of Foundation University, the solar project has now began to expand at the University farm facility in Azagra, Tanjay City – 45 kilometers away from Dumaguete City.

The energy from the solar panels is being utilized to power the water pump which will provide water resource for the racing of poultry and dairy products aside from the organic farm-grown vegetables and fruits produced in the said facility.
