PCPPI Taps First Gen for Geothermal Power at Three Manufacturing Plants

The agreement covers facilities in Batangas, La Union, and Pampanga as the beverage company expands renewable energy use.

Pepsi-Cola Products Philippines Inc. has partnered with the First Gen Group to source approximately 11.35 megawatts of geothermal power for three manufacturing plants.

The agreement covers PCPPI facilities in Sto. Tomas, Batangas; Rosario, La Union; and San Fernando, Pampanga. The companies marked the partnership through a ceremonial signing on October 15, 2026.

For PCPPI, the deal forms part of a wider effort to increase renewable energy use across its manufacturing operations.

The company operates 11 plants nationwide. The announced agreement applies specifically to the three identified facilities.

PCPPI president and chief executive officer Chang Hwan Lee said the partnership supports the company’s effort to grow while reducing the environmental impact of its operations.

First Gen chief customer engagement officer Carlo Vega said the collaboration builds on PCPPI’s work involving water management, circularity, and environmental conservation.

The deal brings renewable electricity procurement into a core part of the beverage business: manufacturing. Rather than a standalone environmental activity, it concerns the energy used to support ongoing plant operations.

For Pampanga, the agreement includes a local manufacturing facility in San Fernando, connecting a national corporate energy initiative with industrial operations in the province.

The partnership represents another step in PCPPI’s stated renewable energy plans. The release does not establish that all 11 plants have shifted to renewable power or provide a quantified reduction in emissions.
