Aboitiz Power Corp. said Thursday it renewed its retail electricity supply partnership with NoBia Inc., the commissary of the Max’s Group for the supply of 1.2 megawatts for the next four years.

Max’s Group is the country’s largest casual dining restaurant company known for Max’s Restaurant, Pancake House, Yellow Cab Pizza Co. and Krispy Kreme.

AboitizPower agreed to supply power to NoBia’s food manufacturing and distribution center in Carmona, Cavite over a four-year period.

The facility produces nearly 2,000 metric tons of food each month, supporting over 300 retail partner stores and a local network of more than 600 stores in the country.

AboitizPower’s retail electricity services give its partners and customers affordable access to dependable power via tailor-fit energy solutions, power quality and efficiency audits and other value-added services in support of the open access and retail competition regime.

“Our partnership with AboitizPower mirrors our brand values [of being] genuine, thoughtful, and delightful. Leveraging on AboitizPower’s renewable energy not only allows us to serve countless Filipino individuals with our culinary offerings but also adds significant value to the Max’s Group’s mission,” said NoBia president Cristina Garcia.

Nobai’s first contract with Aboitiz Power covered November 2021 to November 2023. It was renewed until December 2027.

AboitizPower retail head James Byron Yu said No Bia Inc.’s dedication to evolving their menu offerings and enhancing their capabilities illustrates their unwavering commitment to leading the way in service excellence in food manufacturing and distribution.

‘It is AboitizPower’s privilege to support that with the clean and reliable energy it can and will deliver,” said Yu.

AboitizPower said it would continue to invest in renewables to reach at least 4,600 MW, or 50 percent of its generation portfolio by the next decade, in line with the government’s goal of having a 35-percent and 50-percent share of renewable energy in the country’s power generation mix by 2030 and 2050, respectively.

Close to 1,000 MW of Aboitiz Power RE projects — including wind and solar farms and more geothermal capacities — are in the pipeline.
