The solar facility, developed by Tigon Power Corp. and operated under SSREC, began commercial operations in August 2025. It supplies 52 MW of clean power to Corenergy, Vivant Energy’s retail electricity arm.
Strengthening renewable energy presence in Luzon
The investment deepens Vivant Energy’s footprint in Luzon’s renewable sector and supports the government’s energy transition strategy.
“This reinforces Vivant Energy’s commitment to the Department of Energy’s call for stronger public-private partnerships that ensure the benefits of the energy transition are realized through local development and capacity building,” the company said in a statement.
Aligned with sustainability targets
The Bataan solar investment also underscores the conglomerate’s broader sustainability goals. Vivant Energy has set a target of increasing its renewable energy mix to 30 percent by 2030.
The firm said the Samal Solar Power Project contributes to its strategy of diversifying its power portfolio while aligning with national and global clean energy priorities. —Ed: Corrie S. Narisma
