Vivant Energy Expands Renewable Portfolio with 40% Stake in Bataan Solar Project

Vivant Energy Corporation, under the leadership of the Garcia-Escaño family, has secured a 40% ownership interest in Samal Solar Renewable Energy Corporation (SSREC), the entity managing a 53.14 MWp solar power installation in Bataan. This acquisition marks a strategic expansion of Vivant Energy's renewable energy assets in the Luzon region.

Commissioned in August 2025, the solar facility was developed by Tigon Power Corporation and currently delivers 52MW of clean electricity to Corenergy, Vivant’s retail electricity division.

In a statement, Vivant Energy emphasized that this investment "reinforces the company’s dedication to the Department of Energy’s call for enhanced public-private partnerships, aimed at ensuring that the benefits of the energy transition promote local growth and skill development."

This transaction also supports Vivant Energy’s target to elevate its renewable energy share to 30% by the year 2030, highlighting the company’s commitment to sustainable energy solutions.
