D.M. Wenceslao & Associates Inc. (DMWAI), through its subsidiary Aseana Holdings Inc. (AHI), has partnered with MPower to enroll its Aseana City properties under the Retail Aggregation Program (RAP). The move positions the developer as the latest major estate operator to tap bulk electricity purchasing for more competitive energy sourcing.

In an announcement released today, MPower said the agreement covers AHI’s commercial spaces and offices in Aseana City, which will consolidate multiple electricity accounts within the same franchise area to access aggregated retail supply. RAP allows smaller end-users to benefit from bulk procurement typically available only to high-load customers.

The shift follows DMWAI’s entry into the Competitive Retail Electricity Market (CREM) last year, which enabled its properties to choose their electricity provider based on cost and service needs. DMWAI has been working with MPower since 2019 through the Retail Competition and Open Access (RCOA) program.

“Our relationship with Meralco and MPower has grown over the years of working closely together—from planning and building to full operations. Today’s milestone continues that strong partnership, and we are confident the Meralco & MPower team will remain by our side as we move into the next phase,” said Delfin Angelo C. Wenceslao, President and CEO of DMWAI.

“This new milestone with Aseana reflects the deep trust and shared goals that have shaped our partnership since 2019. Each collaboration—whether CREM or the recently signed RAP accounts—underscores our commitment to providing reliable energy solutions. We’re grateful for Aseana’s continued confidence in MPower as we work together to support opportunities for growth,” said Redel M. Domingo, Meralco First Vice President and Head of MPower.

MPower said it remains focused on expanding its renewable energy supply as more contestable customers seek sustainability-aligned sourcing options while maintaining service reliability within the Meralco franchise area.
