ANTIPOLO, PHILIPPINES – JULY 06: Workers from solar company Solva Energy install solar panels on the roof of a house on July 06, 2026 in Antipolo, Philippines. The Philippines has emerged as one of the world’s biggest recent buyers of solar panels as households and businesses seek relief from some of Asia’s highest electricity prices, but the rapid boom is also raising concerns over land conversion, grid readiness, import dependence, and the impact of large-scale projects on farming communities.
