Yokohama, February 17, 2015 - Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems, Ltd. (MHPS) has received an order from Green Core Geothermal, Inc. (GCGI), a group company of Energy Development Corporation (EDC) of the Philippines, the world leader in geothermal power generation capacity, for rehabilitation work on Units No.1 through No.3 at the Tongonan Geothermal Power Plant.

The Tongonan Geothermal Power Plant is located in proximity to Ormoc, a port city on Leyte, an island in the Visayas group in central Philippines. MHPS delivered the core equipment for the plant in 1981, enabling the Tongonan facility to support its region's power demand reliably for 34 years.

The Philippines is one of the world's foremost generators of geothermal power. EDC ranks as the global leader with respect to capacity of its geothermal power plants, with ability to supply 1,159 MW of this renewable energy.
