Two companies under the Ayala group – ACEN RES and ACMobility – have joined forces to help businesses in the Philippines use cleaner energy for their electric vehicles. According to a disclosure filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 8, 2026, this partnership allows companies to get both renewable energy supply and EV charging stations in one package.
What Does This Partnership Mean?
Think of it like this: imagine you have an electric toy car that needs charging. Now, instead of plugging it into regular electricity (which might come from sources that pollute), you can charge it using clean energy from the sun or wind. That’s basically what ACEN RES and ACMobility are offering to businesses, but for real electric vehicles.
ACEN RES is the company that provides 100% renewable energy (clean electricity from nature), while ACMobility installs and manages the charging stations where electric vehicles plug in to recharge their batteries.
How Will Businesses Use This?
According to the disclosure, companies that buy renewable energy from ACEN RES can now also install EV charging stations at their offices or facilities. These businesses have several options:
- They can set up chargers for their employees to use
- They can charge their own company electric vehicles
- They can open their charging stations to the public and become what’s called “Charge Point Operators” (CPOs)
If a business decides to let the public use their charging stations, these will appear on the Evro app – a mobile application where electric vehicle drivers can find charging stations, use them, and pay for the charging service.
Why Is This Important?
Eric Francia, President and CEO of ACEN, explained that combining clean energy with electric vehicles is essential for the Philippines’ shift to cleaner energy sources. He stated that this partnership makes it easier for businesses to adopt both renewable energy and EV charging, helping reduce pollution from both their operations and transportation.
Jaime Alfonso Zobel de Ayala, CEO of ACMobility, added that electric vehicles provide even better environmental benefits when they’re powered by clean energy rather than electricity from coal or other polluting sources.
Background on the Partnership
This isn’t the first time these two companies have worked together. According to the disclosure, ACEN RES and ACMobility previously collaborated to power some of the Philippines’ first ultrafast EV charging stations in Makati City using 100% renewable energy.
The announcement comes at a time when more businesses and people are looking at electric vehicles as an option, especially with fuel prices going up and more attention being paid to environmental concerns.
