Eton Properties powers commercial, office buildings with renewable energy
Eton Properties Philippines Inc. is powering its key commercial and office buildings with 100 percent renewable geothermal energy, marking a major step forward in the company’s commitment to sustainability, governance, and operational discipline.
The initiative forms part of the Lucio Tan Group’s renewable energy transition in partnership with First Gen Corp. Eton Properties is among the first companies in the Group to complete the shift across its portfolio.
The transition also coincides with International Geothermal Day, observed every October, reaffirming Eton’s commitment to supporting clean, renewable energy solutions that power industries responsibly.
Starting this month, Eton Centris BPO 5 will make the switch, followed by Eton Centris BPO 1 and 3, Centris Walk (including Walk Extension and Centris Estate), Eton Cyberpod Corinthian, and Eton WestEnd Square, in December this year.
The transition will deliver approximately 33 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of clean energy per year and is projected to cut carbon emissions by more than 21,000 metric tons annually, equivalent to removing over 4,000 cars from the road.
Implementation is led by Eton Properties Management Corp. (EPMC), the company’s property management arm.
“This transition shows what sustainability looks like in practice. It is about operational discipline, sound governance, and long-term value,” said Che Mutuc, chief financial officer and chief risk officer of Eton Properties. “Through this shift to renewable energy, we are ensuring that sustainability is built into how we run our business every day.”
The renewable energy transition supports the Lucio Tan Group’s broader sustainability direction in partnership with First Gen, and reinforces Eton’s Beyond Green ESG strategy, which aligns with the group’s four sustainability pillars namely long-term growth, value through products and services, good governance, and the welfare of employees and communities.
