- PLDT has begun testing a home subscription that combines high-speed broadband with residential solar systems for Philippine households.
- The model lets customers pay for solar equipment through monthly installments over several years, lowering the upfront cost of installation.
- Early marketing tests showed consumer interest in bundling internet and energy services, according to the company.
- The trial is part of PLDT Home’s push beyond connectivity into broader home solutions, targeting households seeking to future-proof their homes.
PLDT's solar bundle promises savings, but will hidden costs trap consumers in long-term energy debt? With telcos now selling power, are Filipino homes getting more choice or just a new kind of monopoly?
