EDC expands geothermal facility to reduce PH carbon emissions Leading the path of decarbonization, EDC, through its BacMan Geothermal Inc. subsidiary, kicked off its PHP 7 billion PBPP project. This expansion will increase EDC’s existing 130 MW geothermal energy generation capacity to 159 MW. The same low-carbon project was implemented by Japan, helping it achieve… Continue reading EDC expands geothermal facility to reduce PH carbon emissions

Delivering Value Through our Natural Catastrophe (NatCat)  Resiliency Framework, we completed 24 targets  for 11 Landslide Mitigation Projects, six Typhoonproofing Projects, two Cooling Tower Replacements,  and five sites implemented with Forest Fire Control  Measures. We ensured this level of safety and  resiliency were observed in all our sites by following  the NatCat framework supervised by… Continue reading Delivering Value

Risks, Enterprise Enhancements, and Governance Under manufactured capital, EDC takes on risks  such as natural catastrophe, project execution,  equipment reliability risks, and geothermal capacity.   The worsening climate crisis and extreme weather  conditions pose a serious concern to EDC’s  operations, facilities, and host communities.  Typhoon Odette was one such event that damaged  infrastructure and disrupted day-to-day living… Continue reading Risks, Enterprise Enhancements, and Governance

Key Inputs and Strategic Operations Through our manufactured capitals, we maximized  power generation from the available steam and  ensured plant reliability and availability for power  generation services. EDC also facilitated the speedy  return to service of equipment affected by physical,  technological, or climate-related impacts.     With our Facilities Management System (FMS),  we ensured the timely… Continue reading Key Inputs and Strategic Operations

Ever since  I’ve assumed this position, I knew that one of the  main, if not the most vital, part of my daily work  is to ensure the safety of people. That is why our  team… Continue reading Safety First Guaranteed at EDC

Energy generation with subsurface geothermal resource enhancements In 2021, we enhanced our operations through various upgrades, including the Online Dissolution (OnDi), a new method of well intervention that is less costly and offers a promising alternative to the reinjection well (RI) recovery capacity. Implemented in our BacMan site, OnDi introduced a new and more cost-efficient… Continue reading Energy generation with subsurface geothermal resource enhancements
