LUCENA CITY, Quezon – Pure Energy Holdings Corporation (PEHC) is significantly expanding its renewable energy footprint in Quezon Province. In a strategic meeting held today, key stakeholders discussed plans for a new Hydro Power Plant project in the Mauban to Real area.
Former Southern Luzon Command (SOLCOM) Commander, Lieutenant General Caesar Ronnie Ordoyo, representatives from Pure Energy Holdings Corporation (PEHC), Melvyn Papa and Raymart Habreo, and Quezon Governor Angelina "Doktora Helen" Tan recently convened to explore pathways for advancing this proposed Hydro Power Plant project planned for the Mauban to Real area.
The proposed Mauban-Real Hydro Power Plant holds the potential to significantly bolster the region's energy capacity while promoting sustainable development. It builds upon PEHC's successful track record in the region, which includes the recent commissioning of the 5.8-megawatt Tibag run-of-river hydropower plant in Mauban, Quezon, and the nearing completion of the 1.4-MW Lower Labayat hydropower plant.
PEHC's commitment to renewable energy in Quezon is further underscored by their ongoing construction of two mini-hydropower plants in Real, Quezon, a P660-million investment that is expected to generate 3 megawatts of clean energy, power approximately 7,000 households, and create over 400 jobs. As Blue Energy President and CEO Christopher Tiu stated in 2017, "These power plants will harness our abundant river waters to generate electricity in a clean and sustainable manner."
The meeting underscored the importance of collaboration between government, military, and the private sector in driving forward crucial infrastructure projects. Lieutenant General Ordoyo expressed his support for initiatives that uplift the community, while PEHC representatives highlighted the project's potential benefits, encompassing increased energy capacity, job creation, and economic growth. The governor expressed enthusiasm for the project and assured the provincial government's full support.
This project aligns with PEHC's broader vision for sustainable development, which also includes their recent foray into digital agriculture. The company plans to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) and renewable energy to grow crops in climate-controlled indoor farms, further demonstrating their commitment to innovative and environmentally conscious solutions.
The Mauban-Real Hydro Power Plant project is currently in the planning phase, with further studies and consultations slated for the coming months. All parties involved expressed optimism about the project's potential to contribute significantly to the region's energy security and sustainable development goals. The collaboration showcased in this meeting signifies a promising step towards a greener and more prosperous future for Quezon.
