Ahunan Power Inc.’s Tayo Na Pakil community development program is proving to be a significant driver of socio-economic activity in Pakil, Laguna — reinforcing the company’s role not only in renewable energy development but also in inclusive local growth, three years after its launch.
Ahunan Power, a subsidiary of Enrique Razon Jr.’s Prime Infrastructure Capital Inc. (Prime Infra), is developing a 1,400-megawatt pumped storage hydro project in the town. The company implements Tayo Na Pakil, in partnership with Prime Infra Foundation, its corporate social responsibility arm.
The initiative, launched in 2022, has since delivered projects in education, skills development, livelihood generation, health and wellness, cultural preservation, and climate resilience — aligning with 13 of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Youth Leadership Program
“You (Ahunan Power and Prime Infra Foundation) have always considered the future of the youth by providing the Youth Leadership Program for our students, as well as knowledge about climate change and adaptation. These have become a significant part of the students’ development,” said Leah Mendiola, a teacher at Pakil Senior High School, crediting the program for school improvements including a new canteen and ICT room repairs.
