In May, a customer from the Philippines purchased two solar piling machines from YG Machinery for a large-scale photovoltaic project in Luzon. The project required thousands of steel piles to be installed within a short construction schedule, and traditional manual piling methods could not meet the demand.

Customer’s Challenges
Before choosing YG, the Philippine customer faced several difficulties:
- Complex soil conditions: The project site contained a mix of sandy soil and hard layers, which made manual or light equipment inefficient.
- Tight deadlines: The solar farm needed to be connected to the grid before the rainy season.
- High labor costs: Hiring a large workforce for manual piling increased expenses significantly.
- Durability concerns: Equipment needed to withstand the hot and humid local climate.
YG Solution: Reliable Solar Piling Machines
YG recommended two sets of advanced solar pile drivers designed for high efficiency and adaptability. Key advantages included:
- High efficiency: Each photovoltaic pile driver can install 200–300 piles per day, reducing project time by nearly 30%.
- Adaptability: Powerful hydraulic systems allow the machines to work in soft soil, gravel, and even partially rocky ground.
- Labor savings: Only two operators are needed, cutting labor costs by nearly half.
- Durable design: Built to perform reliably in tropical climates with minimal maintenance.
Project Results in the Philippines
After introducing the two machines, the construction team noticed immediate improvements:
- Installation speed was three times faster compared to manual piling.
- The project was completed two weeks ahead of schedule, avoiding delays during the rainy season.
- Overall costs were reduced by approximately 20% due to labor and time savings.
The customer was highly satisfied and is considering an additional solar pile driver for sale in another renewable energy project.
