One strategic way Globe reduces its environmental impact is by ramping up its efforts on renewable energy such as site solarization.
Globe has once again set the benchmark for sustainability in the local telco industry, winning Standard Insights’ Consumer Choice Awards (CCA) for “Most Sustainable Telecommunications Network in the Philippines” and “Most Active Telecommunications Network for the Environment in the Philippines.”
“We are actively embedding sustainability practices in our operations, from greening our network to providing customers with ways to participate and contribute to social good and environmental conservation. These awards not only validate our ongoing efforts to reduce our environmental impact but also reflect our customers’ awareness and support to our sustainability initiatives,” said Yoly Crisanto, Globe’s chief sustainability and corporate communications officer.
The CCA employ a rigorous, research-driven and unbiased process to capture consumer sentiment accurately and help them make informed decisions about businesses that best meet their needs.
Data is collected through an online survey conducted over a short period for real-time, up-to-date insights through digital cross-platform sourcing.
A total of 1,201 respondents aged 18 and above from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao participated in the survey conducted from 14 to 21 January 2025. The survey focused on individuals with at least one current mobile plan, either prepaid or postpaid.
Globe earlier won Standard Insights awards for its sustainability practices, having been proclaimed the Most Sustainability-Driven Network in 2023 and the Most Sustainable Brand in 2024.
One strategic way Globe reduces its environmental impact is by ramping up its efforts on renewable energy (RE) such as site solarization. This reduces the company’s reliance on coal-based electricity and diesel generators while maintaining reliable and efficient service. As of year end 2024, 53 sites were equipped with hybrid solar power solutions.
In addition, as of February 2025, 33 Globe offices and sites have fully transitioned to RE, aligning with the company’s goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
Reflecting this progress, Globe’s Valero Telepark has received a Special Award for Innovative Technology from the Department of Energy’s Energy Efficiency Excellence Awards 2024 for operating on 100 percent RE and utilizing artificial intelligence to optimize compressor energy management.
Globe’s commitment to energy conservation and efficiency is demonstrated through its ISO 50001 certification, first received in 2022 and set for re-accreditation this year. This certification helps evaluate processes and systems to improve energy use and consumption across operations, and adopt technologies that contribute to efficiency.
For consumers, Globe advances sustainability through initiatives such as EcoSIM, the Philippines’ first SIM made from 100 percent recycled materials, and the Device Trade-In Program, which enables customers to responsibly dispose of old devices in exchange for postpaid bill credits.
In addition, the Globe Rewards program enables customers to convert earned points into donations for environmental causes, supporting organizations such as the Hineleban Foundation, the Philippine Eagle Foundation, and Philippine Seatizens (Save Philippine Seas).
