“We are thrilled to have completed four projects to help meet our nation’s growing energy demand,” said Raslag president and chief executive Robert Nepomuceno. “RASLAG-4 is another step toward putting power back into the hands of Filipinos.”

With RASLAG-4’s completion, Raslag’s total installed capacity now stands at 77.844 megawatts. The company aims to increase its renewable energy portfolio to at least 1,000 megawatts by 2035.

RASLAG-4 incorporates 670-watt monocrystalline solar modules for maximum energy output and reliability. The project has created local jobs and contributed to the economic development of the surrounding area.
