Peninsula Manila goes green with MPower renewable energy deal

MPower, the local retail electricity supplier of Manila Electric Co. (Meralco), has renewed and expanded its partnership with The Peninsula Manila, sealing a deal that will power the iconic five-star hotel with renewable energy.

The move positions The Peninsula Manila as the second property in Southeast Asia—and the fourth globally—within the luxury hotel chain’s portfolio to transition to renewable energy.

Sustainability push

The initiative is a major milestone in the hotel’s Sustainable Luxury Vision 2030, launched in 2021 to address urgent environmental and social challenges. The framework focuses on resource efficiency in energy, water, and food, while tackling climate change and social inequalities.

“This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to innovation and environmental stewardship. By uniting, we are enabling cleaner, more efficient energy solutions that reduce carbon footprint and contribute to the global fight against climate change,” said The Peninsula Manila hotel director Kevin Tsang.

“Our partnership serves as a benchmark for responsible business practices and inspires others to pursue a greener world for our future generations.” 

Strengthening a 12-year partnership

For MPower, the agreement marks a new chapter in its 12-year collaboration with the hotel.

“Our more than a decade of partnership stands as a testament to shared vision and service excellence. It even grows stronger with a renewable energy supply commitment,” said MPower head Redel M. Domingo.

 “We are shaping the present with purpose, and now we move forward with confidence and unity towards sustainable progress,” said Domingo.

MPower has been actively expanding customer choices by offering competitive supply options that enable businesses to shift toward sustainable and cost-efficient operations. —Ed: Corrie S. Narisma
