CREC is building the first gigawatt of renewable energy across eight project locations nationwide, driven by its engineering expertise and comprehensive development capabilities. 

These will be partially funded by process from the company’s P5.3 billion IPO last June. 

CREC currently has a combined gross installed capacity of 285 MW from its 10 solar power facilities strategically located around the Philippines. 

In 2023, it achieved P3.68 billion in revenue, a 32 percent increase from the previous year, with earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization rising 10 percent to P1.51 billion and net income growing 9 percent to P910 million.
