Bitstop Network Services IncBUSINESS PLAN PRESENTATION
Solar Powered Data CenterFIRST LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT DATA CENTER IN THE PHILIPPINES
Why Go Solar?• Countermeasure for impending power
shortage in PH by 2016 (or earlier)• Savings on electricity costs as PH has the
highest utility rate in Asia• Lower deployment and maintenance
costs due to Net Metering Law• Low Carbon Footprint Operations
Looming Power Shortage
Increasing Yearly Demand for Power
High Cost of Regular Power

Net Metering Implications• No need for batteries.– Reduces Total Solar installations by 30%– Reduces Maintenance costs by additional 50%
Low Carbon Footprint• Actually lowers
Operational Costs• Helps with Climate
Change• PR Value in Marketing
Promotions
Capacity Requirements• Current Consumption is 28.9 kWh• Forecast is growth of 20% year on year• Total Solar kWh needed :– 28.9 * 2 * (1.2)5
– Approx 150 kWh capacity
Sample Deployment Costs• Phase 1 (30kWh) PHP 3.24 million• Phase 2 (60 kWh) PHP 6.50 million• Phase 3 (90 kWh) PHP 9.75 million
• Total for all 3 phases: PHP 19.49 million or USD 453,500
Financial Plan• For Phase 1 (Principal: PHP 3.24 million)– Yearly Interest Payment (3.5%): PHP
113,400.00– Yearly Yield on Solar : PHP 560,000.00– Yearly net savings: PHP
446,000.00
• ROI of 7.26 years vs Solar Installation life of 20-25 years
Resource Requirements• South facing roof space for 150 kWh• Net Metering Inverters• Panasonic Solar Panels with highest
efficiencies• Capital Outlay to be disbursed in tranches
aligned with phase rollout
Risks and Rewards• Typhoons may destroy solar panels.
(Mitigated by taking insurance coverage and extended warranties)
• Power rates may go down. (Unlikely)• Power rates may go up. (Likely)• Operational even during prolonged power
outage due to triple source of redundant power (Utility, Solar, Diesel Generator)
