The Board of Investments (BOI) has awarded a green lane certificate to Spotlight Power, Inc. (SPI) for its PHP1.9 billion solar power plant project in Pangasinan. Announced on Tuesday, the 49.9-megawatt Mabini Solar Power Plant is slated to begin operations in the second quarter of 2026.
Situated in Barangay San Pedro, Mabini, the ground-mounted solar farm is expected to create approximately 150 jobs from pre-development through to commercial operations. SPI, a Philippines-based renewable energy company, specializes in solar photovoltaic (PV) modules and other renewable energy technologies.
The project is supported by Trina Solar Investment Pte. Ltd., the investment branch of Trina Solar Co. Ltd., a leading global provider of smart PV and energy storage solutions.
Executive Order 18, enacted on February 24 of last year, established green lanes within government agencies to accelerate the permitting and licensing process for strategic energy investments. The One-Stop Action Center for Strategic Investments (OSAC-SI) will facilitate this by working with local Pangasinan officials to streamline these processes.
