Coastal Renewable Energy Technology Center (CRETC) and German firm Ammonit GmbH strengthened their collaboration, with a shared vision to bring world-standard wind resource assessment products to the Philippine wind energy industry.
The commitment was reaffirmed during the 35th anniversary of Ammonit GmbH in Berlin, Germany.
Ammonit GmbH, a globally-recognized leader in wind measurement and energy assessment, commemorated its decades-long dedication to wind energy innovation with this milestone event.
The occasion provided a valuable platform to reinforce partnerships and emphasize the vital role that accurate wind data plays in successful wind energy projects.
By partnering with CRETC, Ammonit aims to equip the Philippine renewable energy sector with top-tier wind resource assessment instruments—solutions essential for ensuring accuracy, durability and reliability across varied environmental conditions.
CRETC vice president and general manager Peter Castro expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration.
“This partnership with Ammonit underscores our shared commitment to building a greener future. By integrating Ammonit’s globally recognized technology with our local expertise, we can empower communities, reduce carbon emissions, and contribute to the nation’s energy security,” Castro said.
CRETC said wind resource assessment is crucial in the Philippines, where unique geographic and climatic factors affect energy generation.
It said properly assessed wind potential not only reduces investment risks but also maximizes energy yields for each project, making these instruments vital for informed decision-making.
It said that as the country moves towards greater energy independence, the importance of precise and reliable wind resource data cannot be overstated.
The collaboration between CRETC and Ammonit GmbH underscores a shared commitment to supporting the Philippine government’s energy transition goals, contributing to long-term sustainable growth, and establishing the Philippines as a competitive player in the renewable energy market.
CRETC said it is dedicated to developing and deploying renewable energy solutions in coastal areas. It aims to foster sustainable energy practices and contribute to national and regional energy security.
