From a small power distribution network in Mindanao in the ‘30s, the Aboitiz Group’s active involvement in the Philippine power sector continues to grow.
Aboitiz Power Corporation, which was incorporated in February 1998 as a holding company for the Aboitiz Group’s investments in power generation and distribution, recently launched Cleanergy, the company’s new brand of energy taken from clean and renewable sources .
The distinguished invitees that represented the different business sectors in the community gathered at the Salon de España of the Casino Español de Cebu for cocktails before the program proper.
On hand to welcome everyone were Erramon Aboitiz, CEO and president of Aboitiz Power Cebu , vice chairman Jon Aboitiz, and CEO of Aboitiz Construction Group Roberto Aboitiz. The guest of honor and keynote speaker was Cebu Governor Gwen Garcia.
Governor Garcia emphasized not merely the launch of a new brand of an old institution, but more importantly their renewed commitment to the long haul with heavy investments in clean, renewable energy. All of these at a critical time when power needs are increasing with continuous economic growth and expansion in Cebu.
True to its pledge, the company will continue to find and offer better energy solutions to power the country reliably and competitively, as well as sustain the Philippines resources to create a better future for generations of Filipinos.
“We envision a sustainable future with Cleanergy where businesses and people power their activity with clean and renewable energy,” added Aboitiz. “Whether the power be used in houses, malls or buildings.”
