InLife taps ACEN RES for 100% renewable energy supply

MANILA, Philippines — Insular Life (InLife), the largest Filipino life insurer, has entered into a strategic partnership with ACEN RES to power its corporate offices with 100% renewable energy, marking a clear step forward in its commitment to more sustainable business operations. Under the agreement, InLife will source clean power from ACEN’s diversified portfolio of solar, wind, and geothermal facilities to supply its corporate headquarters in Makati City and Alabang, Muntinlupa.

The transition to clean energy is a key component of InLife’s long-term sustainability strategy, directly contributing to a more environmentally responsible business model. By sourcing power from ACEN RES, the retail electricity arm of ACEN, InLife not only expects to achieve cost efficiencies in its electricity consumption but also to make substantial progress in its decarbonization targets.

Hector A. Caunan, Executive Vice President and Chief Property Investment Officer of InLife, said: “InLife’s transition to renewable energy and adherence to globally recognized standards in environmentally safe infrastructure are efforts to lead by example and drive meaningful change towards a sustainable future.” This partnership underscores InLife’s commitment to embedding sustainability into its core operations while ensuring the well-being of its stakeholders and the community.

The partnership is enabled by the Philippine government’s customer choice programs, such as Retail Competition and Open Access (RCOA) and the Green Energy Option Program (GEOP), which empower eligible electricity consumers like InLife to choose their own electricity supplier, fostering a competitive market that encourages the growth of renewable energy.

Tony Valdez, Senior Vice President for Market Transformation and Retail at ACEN, highlighted the growing trend among top corporations to shift to sustainable energy sources: “We are honored to partner with InLife, a leader in the insurance industry, on their journey to sustainability. This collaboration is a testament to the increasing consciousness of businesses to not only manage their operational costs but also to create a positive environmental impact. We are committed to supporting InLife in achieving their green ambitions.”

In recognition of this significant transition, ACEN RES awarded InLife its “Powered by Renewable Energy” badge. This proprietary seal is granted to businesses that source 100% of their electricity supply from ACEN RES. As a first-of-its-kind initiative in the Philippines, the badge visibly communicates to stakeholders InLife’s firm commitment to environmental stewardship.
