Philippines' RASLAG deploys Trinasolar modules for 36.65-MWp Pampanga solar plant

RASLAG 4 is expected to generate 48 GWh annually.

RASLAG Corp. has deployed more than 55,000 solar modules from Trinasolar for its 36.65-megawatt peak (MWp) RASLAG 4 Solar Power Plant in Pampanga.

The Philippine Stock Exchange-listed renewable energy company said RASLAG 4 has been operational since October 2024 and recently secured a Certificate of Compliance (COC) from the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC).

RASLAG 4 is projected to generate around 48 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of electricity annually in 2026 and 2027, enough to supply power to approximately 20,000 households each year.

The facility is also expected to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 34,000 metric tons annually.

Reyland Benjamin Nepomuceno, chief strategy officer of RASLAG Corp., said the project represents another milestone in the company's efforts to expand locally developed renewable energy capacity and help address the country's growing electricity demand.

Connected to the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines' 69-kilovolt transmission line, the solar facility adds clean energy capacity to the national grid, Nepomuceno said.

Elva Wang, Trinasolar's group director for Southeast Asia,  noted that the Philippines has remained a key market for Trinasolar since it began working with local partners in 2013.

She added that the company plans to continue supporting the country's energy transition through its solar and energy storage solutions.
