San Carlos City, Philippines - Aboitiz Power Corp. (AboitizPower) and SunEdison have awarded the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract for their first joint solar power project to be located near San Carlos City, Negros Occidental in the Philippines.

The EPC contractor, Nari Group Corporation, will undertake the construction of the Php 3.

5-billion, 59-MWp Negros Solar Energy Project. They have successfully completed more than 30 projects in the Philippines.

The Negros Solar Energy Project is set for commercial operations in the first quarter of 2016 and will be one of the largest solar power projects in the Philippines to date.

“This project is in support of the call by the government to maximize the renewable energy potential of the country. AboitizPower is one of the biggest renewable energy producers in the country and we will continue to expand this capacity. This project is a testament to that commitment,” Antonio Moraza, AboitizPower President and COO said.

“AboitizPower will continue to pursue the right mix of energy sources to ensure reliability and a reasonable cost of power to the end consumers,” Moraza added.

In November 2014, AboitizPower and SunEdison announced a joint framework agreement to explore, develop, construct, and operate up to 300 MW of utility-scale solar in the Philippines over the next three years.

To date, AboitizPower and its partners produce a total of 3,044 MW of power, 40-percent of which are coming from its Cleanergy portfolio made up of hydro and geothermal power plants.
