ACEN Corp. has earmarked up to P3.85 billion in short-term loans to two wholly owned subsidiaries to accelerate key renewable energy projects in its pipeline.
In a stock exchange report on Tuesday, the listed energy firm said the bulk of the funding — up to P3 billion — will go to Giga Ace 6, Inc., the project company behind the 344.5 megawatts (MW) Quezon North Wind Power Project in Quezon Province.
