Artelia Philippines, an engineering and project management consultancy, is strengthening its role in the country’s energy transition by aligning its operations with the Department of Energy’s Philippine Energy Plan and national decarbonization goals.

As the Philippines moves toward a 50% renewable energy share by 2050 and advances a PHP 2.60 trillion infrastructure pipeline under the “Build Better More” program, demand for specialized technical expertise continues to grow. Artelia Philippines positions itself as a key partner across the full energy value chain—from generation to end-use systems.

Supporting Decarbonization and Infrastructure Resilience

The company delivers its services through two main solution pathways:

  • Decarbonization and Net-Zero Pathways – focused on energy optimization, electrification, and renewable integration to support low-carbon transitions.
  • Sustainable and Resilient Retrofits – aimed at upgrading existing infrastructure to improve energy efficiency and climate resilience.

These approaches are designed to help clients achieve measurable sustainability outcomes while adapting to evolving environmental and regulatory demands.

Long-Term Industry Partnerships

A key example of Artelia’s work is its long-standing collaboration with Shell, where it has provided engineering support across more than 500 sites since 2016. The partnership has also supported the rollout of EV charging infrastructure and sustainable site upgrades. The company reports a safety milestone of 10 million accumulated safe man-hours from 2019 to 2025, reflecting strict operational standards across complex projects.

Expanding Role in Renewable Energy Projects

Artelia Philippines continues to contribute to the country’s clean energy development through its Energy and Water divisions. Recent and ongoing work includes:

  • Due diligence for a mini hydropower project in Mindanao
  • Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) support for a large-scale solar PV project in Isabela

According to company representatives, this work helps bridge the gap between sustainability targets and on-the-ground technical execution, particularly in permitting and engineering processes.

Global Expertise, Local Impact

As part of the France-based Artelia Group, the Philippine office leverages international capabilities in areas such as digital twin technology and circular economy infrastructure. These tools help introduce globally benchmarked engineering practices into local projects.

The company has also contributed engineering expertise to major international developments, including Copenhagen’s Amager Bakke waste-to-energy facility and the New Hospital North Zealand, reinforcing its access to European-level sustainability standards.

Outlook

Artelia Philippines emphasizes that accelerating renewable energy adoption is increasingly critical amid global energy volatility and geopolitical uncertainties. By combining global expertise with local insight, the firm aims to support infrastructure and energy projects that are resilient, sustainable, and future-ready for the Philippines.
