MSpectrum, Inc., a wholly owned solar subsidiary of the Manuel V. Pangilinan-led Manila Electric Company (Meralco), has partnered with food manufacturer Edward Keller Philippines Inc. (EKPI) for a solar project in Laguna.

Under the agreement, MSpectrum will install a 630 kilowatt-peak (kWp) solar facility at EKPI’s industrial facility in Carmelray Industrial Park, Laguna.

The project, targeted for completion in the second quarter of 2025, is expected to generate approximately 714,553 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of clean energy every year.

EKPI will be able to reduce its carbon footprint by an estimated 422 metric tons, equivalent to more than 23,000 trees planted and more than 2.03 million kilometers reduced in vehicle travel per year.

"This project not only helps us cut energy costs by PHP 1.2 million a year, but also help us reduce our carbon footprint by 422 metric tons,” EKPI President Alexander Ong Oh said.

Apart from reducing its carbon footprint, the solar project will also allow EKPI lock in its energy costs for the next 10 years and ensure its business remains operational even in the event of scheduled power interruptions.

“We would be counting on MSpectrum to help us achieve this, and we look forward to future collaborations, possibly adding more solar generation," Oh said.

EKPI is one of the brands of DKSH Philippines that manufacture ingredients for food, personal care, specialty chemicals and pharmaceutical industries.

For MSpectrum, the project with EKPI demonstrates the solar company’s continuing pursuit to help companies achieve more efficient and sustainable operations.

“We celebrate the contract signing for the installation of 630 kWp solar power generating system that will help EKPI achieve their sustainability goals,” MSpectrum COO Patrick Henry T. Panlilio said.


EKPI joins the roster of international and local companies that engaged MSpectrum to advance their sustainability and efficiency goals through utilization of renewable energy.

With eight years in the industry, MSpectrum has already installed more than 80 megawatts (MW) of solar rooftop projects.#
