Hocheng Philippines Corp. (HCG) has tapped Energy Development Corp. (EDC) for the supply of renewable energy (RE) to power their operations.

HCG Senior Vice President and Officer-in-Charge Eugene Lin said the company has decided to follow the road that leads to sustainability by creating partnerships with like-minded companies.

“As a company whose ultimate goal is to pursue excellence in LEED-compliant products, we build better designs to reduce our overall impact on the environment and to support government projects towards sustainable development,” said Lin, adding that choosing the right energy partner allows the company to move toward a future that goes beyond sustainability for them.

EDC, a subsidiary of First Gen Corp. and the pioneer renewable energy company in the Philippines, makes the reality of decarbonization possible through geothermal energy that provides an uninterrupted supply of green energy or Geo 24/7.

“Hocheng Philippines Corp. believes First Gen and EDC can help meet our goals by providing efficient electricity through their low-carbon footprint resources,” Lin added.
