In partnership with US-based Mesa Natural Gas Solutions LLC, local oil distributor Phoenix Pilipinas Gas and Power Inc. is expected to bring the first batch of its gas-powered genset units to the country next month. Signed late last year between Mesa and Phoenix Gas, the agreement designates Mesa to manufacture the gensets, while Phoenix will be in charge of the business in the country. The generator sets are compact-designed, mobile, and custom-engineered to help businesses continue their operations, especially those that are in remote areas and those struggling to get a reliable power supply due to the consequences of the ongoing pandemic. The units will also use propane rich liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), a clean, reliable, and more sustainable power source, to function, which will be supplied by Phoenix LPG Philippines Inc. For its pilot run, Phoenix Gas and Mesa produced three genset units, each with a maximum capacity of 350 kilowatts.
