Kairos Renewables has signed an engineering, procurement and construction agreement with PowerChina for the P13.31-billion Guimbal Wind Project in Iloilo province.

The 200-megawatt project will be structured in two 100-megawatt phases across the municipalities of Guimbal, Igbaras, Tubungan and Tigbauan. Kairos Renewables through Guimbal Wind Energy Corp. (GWEC) is developing the site, which is scheduled to be ready for construction by the third quarter of this year.

“For us, this is more than a contract signing. It is the transition from years of disciplined development work into executable infrastructure,” Kairos Renewables chief executive Aaron Danies said.

“In Southeast Asia, bankable utility-scale renewables are increasingly defined by who can move from origination to construction readiness with speed, rigor and the right partners,” he said.

Danies said PowerChina brings global delivery capability at scale and the partnership strengthens the path to construction for one of the most important onshore wind projects in the Philippines.

“As power demand accelerates across the region, especially from digital infrastructure and industrial growth, projects that can convert development into real megawatts will define the next decade of energy leadership,” Danies said.
