Alsons Power Group is accelerating the expansion of its Retail Electricity Supply (RES) business as the Company continues to broaden its power generation portfolio, including upcoming large-scale solar power facilities in Mindanao.
Through its licensed RES arm, Alsons Power Supply Corporation (APSC), the Group provides contestable customers with flexible energy solutions designed to support their energy requirements and long-term growth. At present, APSC supplies 118 megawatts (MW) to major industry players, supported by a reliable generation portfolio of more than 500 MW from both conventional and renewable energy sources.
“Our RES unit allows us to translate our generation investments into direct value for our end users,” said Alsons Power Chief Executive Officer Antonio Miguel B. Alcantara. “As we continue enhancing our operations and expanding our renewable energy footprint, our RES business ensures we can offer competitive, reliable, and sustainable power options tailored to the needs of our partners.”
Beyond price competitiveness, Alsons Power emphasized that its RES strategy is anchored on customer partnership. This includes tailored energy plans, clearer billing, and dedicated account management. By integrating both power generation and supply, the Group helps protect customers from market volatility, supports sustainability objectives, and enables businesses to achieve energy cost savings.
According to the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC), consumers who sourced electricity through RES providers saved nearly PHP 50 billion in the first half of 2024 alone.
Starting June 2026, more businesses are expected to benefit from the Retail Electricity Market after the ERC lowered the monthly peak demand threshold from 500 kilowatts (kW) to 100 kW, opening the market to smaller electricity users.
“We welcome this development as it provides us opportunities to help more consumers access better energy options aligned with their strategies and goals,” Alcantara added. “Our retail and investment strategies support each other. We are building a business that is not just a utility, but a comprehensive energy partner capable of navigating a more competitive and decentralized environment.”
