Renewable power pioneer Alternergy Holdings Corporation (“ALTER”) has received the Confirmation of Qualification to Carry the Philippine Green Equity Label from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This landmark certification formally recognizes ALTER as a pure-play renewable energy company that meets the highest standards for green investment on the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE).
The approval follows ALTER’s application pursuant to SEC Memorandum Circular No. 13, series of 2025, which allows listed and listing companies to receive the certification upon compliance. The SEC confirmed that ALTER, by virtue of its exclusive dedication to clean power generation, not only complied with but surpassed the certification requirements.
Specifically, the SEC approval affirms that 100% of ALTER’s revenues are derived from renewable energy sources, clearly establishing its status as a dedicated green entity. Furthermore, over 90% of the company’s operating expenses and capital expenditures are channeled directly into green activities.
The Commission also cited ALTER’s proactive commitment to international best practices, noting its earlier adoption of the Green Finance Framework in 2024, which demonstrates adherence to the Sustainable Finance Taxonomy Guidelines (SFTG).
“Receiving the Philippine Green Equity Label is a monumental validation of our commitment to pureplay renewable energy development,” said a Senior Executive at Alternergy. “This certification is more than a badge of honor; it’s a powerful tool that significantly strengthens our position to attract green equity capital, ensuring we can finance our expansive project pipeline and accelerate the Philippines’ energy transition.”
The Green Equity Label certification will give Alternergy a substantial advantage in tapping the growing pool of environmentally focused capital, offering a clear and transparent signal to global and local investors seeking certified green assets for future financing needs.
