French firms in renewable energy to try to penetrate RP

AS government and private firms are expected to fully engage in environment-friendly sources of energy following the passage of Renewable Energy Act, heads of French energy companies advocating sustainable sources of energy will visit the country to try to penetrate the Philippine market.

The French Chamber of Commerce in the Philippines (Le Club-FCC) said at least 14 French energy companies would participate in the Powertrends International Fair later this week to promote the alternative sources of energy for the Philippines.

The companies are engaged in the energy sector, such as power generation, engineering, technology and solutions.

The French trade fair from September 9 to 11 at the World Trade Center coincides with the United Nations International Conference on Green Industry in Asia to be hosted by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.

The French companies participating in the trade fair include Novergy, which provides renewable-energy technology solutions that include biomass power plants, waste-heat recovery, as well as solar and wind power.

Vergnet SA provides expertise in providing wind power that will last for 30 years.

The Bureau d’Etude Molinet, meanwhile, said its services include raising a better awareness with each user of energy in favor of sustainable development through citizen behavior.

Enertime, an engineering firm, provides consultancy on renewable- energy development, particularly on bioenergy and solar power.

Another French energy expert, Transformer Protector Corp. (TPC), meanwhile, provides advise in the transformer explosion prevention.

FCC said other French engineering and technology companies that aim to market their products and services in the Philippines include Alstom-Philippines, Areva Renewable, Basler Electric, ETDE International and MS Resistances.

Paris-Manila Technology Corp. (Pamatec), meanwhile, intends to showcase its high/medium and low-voltage equipment and services and power distribution to sub stations, telecommunication power systems and rural electrification.

Other French companies in the trade fair also include SDV Philippines Inc., which provides freight forwarding and international logistics. TMC France SAS sells cast-resin distribution transformers up to 52KV.
