MPower, the retail electricity arm of Manila Electric Co (Meralco), signed a new energy supply contract with The Peninsula Manila to power the iconic five-star hotel with renewable energy.
The agreement marks a significant milestone in the 12-year collaboration between the two companies and makes The Peninsula Manila the fourth property in the hotel chain’s global portfolio, and second in Southeast Asia, to switch to renewable energy.
The transition to renewable energy will help the hotel reduce its carbon emissions and support its long-term sustainability strategy, Sustainable Luxury Vision 2030, launched in 2021.
The strategy focuses on reducing the use of natural resources and addressing the climate crisis.
“Our more than a decade of partnership stands as a testament to shared vision and service excellence. It even grows stronger with a renewable energy supply commitment,” said Redel Domingo, head of MPower.
“This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to innovation and environmental stewardship,” said Kevin Tsang, director of The Peninsula Manila.
“By uniting, we are enabling cleaner, more efficient energy solutions that reduce carbon footprint and contribute to the global fight against climate change,” said Tsang.
