Bustos Makes History with Bulacan’s First Solar-Powered Municipal Hall

In a landmark achievement for sustainable governance, the Municipality of Bustos has officially inaugurated the first-ever solar-powered municipal hall in the province of Bulacan. This pioneering initiative, led by Mayor Francis “Iskul” Juan, signals a bold commitment to renewable energy, cost efficiency, and environmental stewardship.

The project features a 99.71 kWp grid-tied solar PV system installed on the rooftop of the Bustos Municipal Hall and extended to the adjacent community hospital. By harnessing the sun’s power, the municipal complex can now generate a significant portion of its electricity needs—reducing dependence on conventional energy sources and lowering monthly power expenses.

Mayor Juan expressed his pride in the project’s completion, noting that it aligns with his vision of a smarter and greener Bustos.

“Ito po ay hakbang tungo sa mas malinis, mas matipid, at mas progresibong bayan ng Bustos,”

— Mayor Francis “Iskul” Juan

A Vision Rooted in Progress and Sustainability

For Mayor Juan, solarizing the municipal hall is more than just a cost-saving measure—it is a statement of intent. It reflects Bustos’s readiness to embrace modern, eco-friendly technologies for the benefit of its citizens and future generations.

The move sets Bustos apart as a trailblazer, inspiring other municipalities in Bulacan and across the country to follow suit.

Engineering the Future: Macspower’s Role

Behind the successful execution of this historic project is Engr. Mark Allen Perez, CEO of Macspower Corporation. Known for his dedication to renewable energy solutions, Engr. Perez oversaw the project from planning to installation, ensuring a seamless transition to solar power.

“Maraming salamat sa pagtitiwala sa Macspower Corporation para sa napakahalagang proyektong ito. Isang malaking karangalan para sa amin na maging bahagi ng makasaysayang hakbang na ito para sa bayan ng Bustos,”

His leadership and technical expertise were crucial in bringing the vision to life, establishing Bustos as the first municipality in Bulacan to integrate solar power into its government facilities.

Lighting the Way for the Next Generation

The solar-powered municipal hall stands as a testament to what can be achieved when forward-thinking leadership and technical innovation come together. More than just an infrastructure upgrade, it represents hope for a cleaner, more sustainable future.

As Bustos embraces the glow of solar energy, the municipality sends a clear message: progress and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.

With this milestone, Bustos is not just making history—it is shaping the future.
