With this agreement, First Gen unit Green Core Geothermal Inc. will continue to energize GMC's largest food manufacturing complex in Cebu with electricity from its geothermal plant in Negros Oriental.

GMC president Anna Gurango-Vicencio said RE is the "future of sustainable manufacturing," noting that this tie-up ensures that GMC meets its energy needs while pursuing its long-term environmental goals.

"By integrating more clean energy into our operations, we are future-proofing our business while making a positive impact on the environment," she said.
