How we kept 200 solar panels on a roof during typhoon winds 2026-07-16

A 130kW solar project is currently being installed on a metal roof in the Philippines. 200 panels. Our full metal roof solar mounting system supplied, and the client just sent us photos from the site.


One short comment from them: "Installation went smoothly. The structure is solid."

For a project in the Philippines, that's exactly what we want to hear.


The challenge here wasn't the panel count or the roof type, it was the wind load. The site faces wind speeds above 70m/s, well beyond typical coastal project requirements. Standard mounting systems wouldn't cut it. That's why we went with a 3‑rail wind‑resistant design – an extra rail beyond the usual two rows, distributing the load more evenly and keeping every panel locked down even under extreme typhoon conditions.


Another thing the client appreciated: we delivered a complete solar mounting kit, no extra parts to source locally. Based on the panel count and layout, we packed everything they needed: L‑feet, mid clamps, end clamps, grounding components, and all bolts. One delivery, one set of parts. Open and install, no hunting for missing pieces on site.


The Philippines has seen steady growth in the commercial and industrial solar sector, especially on metal roof buildings. But for high‑wind areas, price alone shouldn't drive the decision, the real question is whether the structure can hold up when the next typhoon hits. Our design philosophy is simple: make sure the installer doesn't have to come back to fix things later.


If you have a metal roof project in the Philippines or Southeast Asia and need a wind‑resistant mounting solution, feel free to reach out. We can provide a custom design and a full kit quote based on your project specs.
