(PHILIPPINES) EcoSolar Energy Corp. secured an environmental compliance certificate from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources for its 98.2-megawatt solar plant in Capiz, the project developers announced on June 2.

The approval marks a key milestone for the Panitan solar power project, which will become the largest solar facility of parent company PetroGreen Energy Corp. and the first utility-scale solar plant in Capiz province.

The project aims to inject much-needed power into the Visayas grid, which has recently suffered from frequent red and yellow power supply alerts.

The ground-mounted facility won a supply contract in the Department of Energy’s Green Energy Auction Program 4. Developers target commercial operations on or before the end of 2028, subject to remaining pre-development work and a 138-kilovolt substation upgrade by the National Grid Corp. of the Philippines.

“We are pleased to receive the ECC for our Panitan Solar Power Project after an extensive process that began in November 2025,” PetroGreen environment and community relations assistant vice president Yrel Ventura said.

“Capiz government leaders, Panitan municipal officials and local stakeholders endorsed the project, citing its significance and potential impacts as the province’s first utility-scale solar power facility,” Ventura said.

“Just as important, this investment by the Yuchengco Group of Companies will add much-needed power to the Visayas grid, which has been plagued by constant red and yellow alerts recently,” Ventura said.

EcoSolar is a unit of PetroGreen, a joint venture between Yuchengco-led PetroEnergy Resources Corp. and Japan’s Kyuden International Corp.

Aside from generating clean energy, the development will integrate an agrivoltaics component to combine solar power generation with agricultural production.

Developers expect this dual-use land strategy to boost food security and create community livelihood opportunities through crop production and nursery operations in the host villages of Timpas and Capagao.

EcoSolar Energy Corp. secures an environmental compliance certificate for its 98.2-MW Panitan Solar Power Project in Capiz to boost the Visayas grid by 2028.

(MALAYSIA) Muhibbah Engineering (M) Bhd has secured a contract worth about RM300 million to build part of a regasification terminal in Lumut, Perak.

The job involves engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning of the marine structure and ancillary works for the liquefied natural gas Regasification Terminal 3 located at the Lumut Maritime Terminal 2, the company said in an exchange filing on June 8.

The contract is scheduled to commence in May 2026 and expected to be completed by July 1, 2028.

Terminal 3 is being developed by PETRONAS Gas Bhd and a unit of Tenaga Nasional Bhd based on a floating storage regasification unit that could store up to 170,000 cubic metres of natural gas and supply up to 500 million standard cubic feet of gas per day.

Regasification terminals are facilities used to receive natural gas in its liquid, superchilled form transported by specialised vessels, before converting it back into gaseous form for distribution into the gas pipeline network.

The contract marks the second major contract secured by Muhibbah Engineering this year after the construction firm clinched a RM120 million subcontract in April from Gamuda Bhd under the Penang LRT Mutiara Line project.

(PHILIPPINES) Alsons Consolidated Resources Inc. expects two solar projects with a combined capacity of 173.7 megawatts to be completed by 2027 as part of the company’s renewable energy expansion program.

“We have been actively advancing our renewable energy development program, conducting feasibility and interconnection studies for solar and integrated energy storage projects across General Santos City, Sarangani Province, and other locations in Mindanao and the Visayas,” Alsons chairman Nicasio Alcantara said during the company’s annual stockholders meeting.

He said the most advanced of these projects is the 75-megawatt Bawing Solar project in General Santos City, which started construction in May and has a target commercial operations date of June 2027.

Alcantara said they are also preparing to actively participate in the Green Energy Auction Program, which provides a structured and competitive pathway for new renewable energy capacity.

He said the company is also developing the 98.7-megawatt SPPC solar facility in Sarangani province, which won in the 4th round of the GEA, with a delivery date of Sept 2027.

“This is an important milestone for ACR, as it marks our formal entry into the government’s renewable energy auction program and validates the commercial viability of our solar program,” Alcantara said.

Alsons remains focused on expanding its power portfolio to help meet the rising power demand across Mindanao and throughout the country. Alena Mae S. Flores

It believes that stable, reliable and affordable power is essential to driving economic growth and supporting national development.

“As the economy grows, demand for reliable and sufficient power will continue to rise. Electricity remains essential in supporting industries, businesses, infrastructure, and communities, while also helping attract investments,” said Antonio Miguel Alcantara, Alsons chief executive.

Alsons continues to strengthen its operations and invest in renewable technologies, particularly in solar and hydropower projects, to help support the growing energy requirements of Mindanao and beyond.

The company is advancing studies on a hybrid technology and battery energy storage system, or BESS, for its conventional power plants in Zamboanga and Iligan to further enhance operational capability, flexibility and competitiveness across both the energy and reserve markets.

Aside from solar power facilities, Alsons has hydropower projects under its asset portfolio. In 2024, the company commenced operations of its first hydropower project, the 14.5-megawatt Siguil Hydro Power Plant in Sarangani.

The company also continues to expand its participation in the Wholesale Electricity Spot Market, ancillary services and retail electricity supply business as it positions itself for long-term growth amid rising power demand.

(MALAYSIA) ConocoPhillips Sabah Gas Ltd, operator of the Kebabangan (KBB) gas field off the cost of Sabah, announced that it has taken final investment decision (FID) on May 21 for Phase 2 of the KBB gas field development.

The decision underscores the company’s long-term commitment to Malaysia and continued investment in Sabah.

The total investment by the joint venture partners of approximately RM1.3 billion will support the drilling of additional wells to increase gas production, help meet growing demand and strengthen Sabah’s energy security.

ConocoPhillips Malaysia president Connor Dunn said, “I am very pleased to see that in the little over a year as operator, reliability has improved and safety performance has strengthened. This is a testament to our team and the strong support of our partners.”

Commissioned in 2013, the KBB gas field is located approximately 123 km off the coast of Sabah, and the anchor supplier for LNG and domestic gas for Sabah.

The KBB Cluster development is a joint venture between ConocoPhillips Sabah Gas Ltd (30 %, operator), Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd (40 %), and Shell Energy Asia Ltd (30 %).

KBB Phase 2 is part of ConocoPhillips’ broader growth strategy and underscores the company’s continued commitment to future investments in Malaysia.

“We thank Petronas, our partners, vendors and suppliers for their continued confidence and support. This investment also reflects our commitment to developing local capabilities, particularly among Sabah vendors,” said Dunn.

“In our first year of operatorship, we are proud to announce that three Malaysian companies, including two from Sabah, were recognised through the 2026 ConocoPhillips Global Supplier Recognition Awards, underscoring the strength, competitiveness and growing global readiness of local suppliers in supporting safe, reliable and high-performing operations.”

This investment in KBB Phase 2 development will expand production capacity, support Sabah’s energy security and further strengthen local talent and supplier capabilities.
