The Philippine housing industry faces a daunting challenge: how to provide affordable housing without compromising quality of life. Leading affordable housing developer Urban Deca Homes has set the industry benchmark by providing comfortable homes for low- and middle-income families. However, in rapidly urbanizing areas, frequent power outages threaten the comfort of every Filipino. SMAT, a trusted Chinese generator set manufacturer, fills the gap with reliable backup power solutions tailored for mass housing in the Philippines.
With more than 6 million Filipino households lacking adequate housing, developers like Urban Deca Homes prioritize cost-effective construction. However, unstable grid infrastructure—especially in emerging cities such as Bulacan, Cavite, and Rizal—can turn these affordable homes into uncomfortable living spaces during prolonged power outages. SMAT’s diesel generator sets ensure 24/7 power supply for:
“Working with SMAT enables us to deliver on our promise of livability,” noted a project manager at Urban Deca Homes. “Their 850kVA silent generators provide uninterrupted power during Manila’s frequent power outages without disturbing residents.”
SMAT generators have been deployed in nearly 120 Philippine residential projects and adapted to local conditions:
Cooling system: Enhanced radiators and corrosion-resistant materials withstand an average humidity of 95%.
Fuel efficiency: Compliant engines reduce operating costs by 30% compared to refurbished units common in the local market.
Compact design: Space-saving configuration fits into the narrow machine rooms common in economical residential projects.
SMAT's success in the Philippines extends to:
Commercial: backup power for shopping mall tenants
Industrial: main power for sugar factories
Public sector: emergency generators for police stations and the military
