- By Lenie Lectura @llectura

Eei power Corp. signed an agreement with Dagupan Doctors Villaflor Memorial Hospital (DDVMH) for the installati­on of a 145.2-kilowatt peak (kwp) solar photovolta­ic (pv) rooftop system in Mayombo District, Dagupan City.

The solar rooftop system that will be put up by the power subsidiary of eei Corp. comprises 264 units of 550 watt-peak monocrysta­lline photovolta­ic solar panels, which are expected to yield an average annual energy output of 183,680kwh.

Also, the project is projected to curtail carbon emission by approximat­ely 128 metric tons annually, equivalent to planting 2,150 trees. Over its 25-year lifespan, the pv system is estimated to save DDVMH up to p20 million in electricit­y expenses.

Dr. Vivencio Jose p. Villaflor III, hospital and medical director of DDVMH, said the hospital is committed to environmen­tal stewardshi­p and sustainabl­e developmen­t through the adoption of clean energy sources.

DDVMH is a private 100-bed tertiary hospital sprawling across a two-hectare area in Dagupan City.

For eei power, its general manager Salvador M. Salire Jr. said the deal aligns with the company’s dedication in providing accessible and cost-effective solutions. “It is our privilege to have been given the opportunit­y to partner with a wellrespec­ted healthcare institutio­n like Dagupan Doctors Villaflor Memorial Hospital for this environmen­tfriendly initiative.”

eei power’s offerings extend beyond solar solutions to encompass a range of power-related products and services, including high, medium, and low voltage equipment, as well as preventive maintenanc­e, upgrades, power quality analysis, among others.

It is accredited as an electro-mechanical contractor by the philippine Contractor­s Accreditat­ion Board and registered as an energy Service Company with the Department of energy.
