Product offeringCore offering
WeGen Energy Philippines Inc. designs, sells, and installs state-of-the-art solar PV systems across the Philippines for residential homes, commercial and industrial properties, government buildings, churches and religious institutions, schools and healthcare facilities, and off-grid island communities. The company delivers three system configurations — Grid Tie, Hybrid, and Off-Grid — using SolarEdge inverters (with Export Control/Zero Export included at no additional cost) and modules from leading manufacturers such as Hanwha Q Cells, JA Solar, Jinko Solar, and Trina Solar, supported by engineering design, installation, monitoring, and long-term maintenance services.
Product overview
WeGen is a renewable energy company offering solar PV (photovoltaic) installation services. The company provides three main system types: Grid Tie (standard grid-connected without battery), Hybrid (with battery storage), and Off-Grid (standalone with batteries and generator backup). WeGen Solar Solutions are offered across six market segments: Residential, Commercial and Industrial, Church and Religious Institutions, Government Infrastructure, Island and Off-Grid Communities, and Education and Health Facilities. A specialized sub-brand, WeGen Laudato Si' (WGLS), focuses specifically on partnerships with Catholic Church and religious communities. The company offers customizable savings packages (100%, 75%, 50%, or 25% bill reduction) and includes features like Export Control using SolarEdge inverters. WeGen is primarily a hardware/installation services company rather than a software platform.
