Team Energy launches reforestation project
Team Energy, operator of the Sual-coal- fired power plant, is embarking on a reforestation program that will cover 2,000 hectares of land in the southwestern and eastern parts of Pangasinan.
The project will cost about P90 million and will cover the southwestern towns of Sual, which hosts the power plant, Labrador and San Manuel as well as Infanta in the east.
Eric Nuñez, Team Energy’s Office of Community Relations chief, met with Luduina Co, provincial environment and natural resources officer, last week to discuss the details of the five-year project scheduled to start next year.
The reforestation program, aimed at protecting and preserving the environment, is part of Team Energy’s overall corporate social responsibility program.
The coal-fired power plant operated by Team Energy emits carbon and thus has a negative impact on the air and the environment as a whole.
Mangrove and open forest areas will be set up using plants that are endemic in the area. #
