Energy is an increasingly challenging issue for households in Southeast Asia. Rising energy bills, volatile prices and traditional energy systems are causing global climate change. However, solar panels can solve all three of these problems. Here's why!

Saving money

‍Energy is a significant expense for households in Southeast Asia because the cost of energy will include the cost of power plants (e.g. gas or coal fired power plants) and the cost of building and maintaining power cables. Twenty years ago, solar panels were also considered an expensive energy solution, but over the past two decades, costs have fallen significantly thanks to the introduction of new technologies, coupled with scaled-up production scales. Today, solar panels can be bought cheaply, which allows you to save money from the first day. And the roof will usually be abandoned, not used for comfort purposes for the house, so why not install a solar panel?

‍Control your own power supply

‍There is a fact that the power supply is not always stable. Broken power lines or malfunctioning power plants can cause households to suffer frequent power outages. Moreover, increased imports of natural gas in Southeast Asia lead to the risk that electricity bills may experience unexpected price increases. With rooftop solar panels, you can control your own power supply and even sell excess energy back to the grid. With solar power, you will no longer have to worry about your air conditioner or refrigerator suddenly shutting down!

Use of green electricity

‍The Earth is warming rapidly and is likely to surpass global warming of 1.5 degrees by 2040, leading to rising sea levels and increasingly extreme weather events. Key cities in Southeast Asia are at significant risk of flooding - half of Ho Chi Minh is less than a meter above sea level, while Bangkok is directly bordered by the Chao Phaya River via canals and tributaries in the city. ~ 75% of total global greenhouse gas emissions come from the energy sector, of which electricity generation from coal and gas is one of the culprits main. Meanwhile, solar panels do not produce toxic greenhouse gases when you use v, which in turn can significantly reduce the impact of Southeast Asia on the problem of global climate change.
