Exploring a Better and Sustainable Future

Philippine Geothermal Production Company, Inc.’s (PGPC) expansion also demands increase in its steam production and economic opportunities in areas we operate.

PGPC operates the Tiwi and Mak-Ban steam fields that, as of October 2023, have produced 148 billion kWh of clean renewable energy. This is equivalent to 275 million barrels of avoided oil imports and has helped reduce CO2 emissions by at least 58 billion kilograms since the start of its commercial operations in 1979.

Currently, PGPC and its affiliate companies are exploring additional geothermal energy projects in Daklan, Mt. Labo, Mt. Malinao, Cagua and Baua-Sikaw, and Kalinga for a total development potential of about 250 – 400 MW. This is in support of the country’s national goal to increase its renewable energy mix to 35% by 2030 and to 50% by 2040.

We also continue to support our established Tiwi Upland Management Areas for Nature-based Agriculture (TUMANA) program for the agricultural training needs of the local communities. The hub that we built together with our partners as part of this program has now become the learning resource center for the Tiwi municipality. It also offers internship programs for the youth who take interest in agriculture and agricultural management.

Partnering with the local government units and academic institutions, we have two adopted plantations under our Kupkop Kabundukan (adopt the mountains) program and continue to collaborate with the Makiling Center for Mountain Ecosystems of the University of the Philippines Los Baños for the conservation and protection of the forest reserve and four of its surrounding watersheds.
