Can i buy solar panels for my house in the Philippines?

We Answered:

Well there certainly wouldn't be any regulation AGAINST using them so it shouldn't be a problem, the only thing is how to get them and pay a decent price. Solar panels are still very expensive because the US government wishes to subsidize dirty oil companies instead of clean solar cell production companies. Since oil is so cheap, it makes solar cells more expensive in the market. If you find a seller you can buy enough panels (likely 4) to power a house, ship them to the Philippines, and install them. The thing is with the panels is that you need a converter to use AC power. It's a great investment and well worth the money. You can install a system and in a matter of a few years you will have saved enough money by not paying a power bill to install the panels and have money to spare.

Where is the best place to buy solar panels to power my house in Australia. I Have heard of energex aretheyOK?

We Answered:

Shop around and ask a lot of questions. There are a lot of suppliers and the field changes rapidly. BP Solar used to be the best around, good advice, good installation but I haven't dealt with them for almost 5 years so I'm not sure where they stand now.

I have no experience with Energex.
