ADVANCING GREEN ENERGY The MGEN Team poses during the courtesy call on Nueva Ecija Gov. Oyie Umali (third from right). PHOTO FROM MGEN MERALCO PowerGen Corp. (MGEN) — through its renewable energy development arm MGEN Renewable Energy Inc. — extends its deepest appreciation to Nueva Ecija Gov. Aurelio “Oyie” Matias Umali for his steadfast support of the MTerra Solar Project — a shining example of how public-private partnerships can drive the nation’s clean energy future forward.
Spanning the provinces of Nueva Ecija and Bulacan, the MTerra Solar Project is set to become the world’s largest integrated solar and battery energy storage facility. It is expected to deliver an unprecedented 3,500 megawatt peak of solar capacity integrated with a 4,500-megawatt-hours battery energy storage system.
Officially designated by the Department of Energy as an Energy Project of National Significance, the project is a major step toward enhancing energy security, accelerating carbon reduction, and fueling green growth for the Philippines — especially in Nueva Ecija, where the majority of the solar panels will be installed. The project is expected to provide clean energy to at least two million households.
This transformative development strengthens Nueva Ecija’s position as one of the leading renewable energy centers of the Philippines, reinforcing the province’s growing reputation for sustainability and innovation.
Under Umali’s leadership, Nueva Ecija continues to attract strategic investments in clean energy, contributing significantly to the country’s transition toward a more resilient and low-carbon future.
