The first shipment of wind turbine components for the 128-megawatt (MW) Tanay Wind Power Project has arrived at the newly-built jetty in Dinahican Port, Infanta, Quezon, marking a major milestone in Alternergy Holdings Corporation’s (ALTER) push to expand its renewable energy portfolio.

Delivered by ocean barge, the shipment includes twelve 90-meter blades—each the length of a football field—along with other components supplied by Envision Energy. Each of the massive turbines, the largest to be deployed in the Philippines to date, will have a capacity of 8MW and a rotor diameter of 182 meters. Once installed, the towers will stand nearly 200 meters high, comparable to some of Makati’s tallest buildings.

“This achievement underscores our commitment to promoting a cleaner, greener future for the Philippines,” said Knud Hedeager, president of Alternergy Wind Holdings Corporation. “We are proud to contribute to the country’s energy transition and help secure long-term energy independence for the Philippines through renewables.”

The Tanay Wind Power Project is being developed by Alternergy’s subsidiary, Alternergy Tanay Wind Corporation (ATWC). It is one of five renewable energy projects currently under construction as part of ALTER’s goal to build up to 500 MW of clean energy capacity by 2026.

“We are excited to see this project take shape and make a real, lasting impact on the country’s energy landscape,” Hedeager added. “We remain fully engaged with our partners, local stakeholders, and government agencies to ensure the successful completion of this landmark project.”

Additional turbine shipments are expected in the coming months to complete the project’s full capacity.

Alternergy debuted on the Philippine Stock Exchange in March 2023 and has since been included in the PSE Industrial Index. It declared its first preferred dividend in December 2024, amounting to Php 118 million, including payments to the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS).
