History

The power plant was a project of South Luzon Thermal Corp. (SLTEC), a company jointly owned by Trans-Asia Oil and Energy Development Corp. of the PHINMA Group and AC Energy (ACEN) of the Ayala Group.^[1]

The first unit of SLTEC's coal power station in Calaca, Batangas became operational on April 24, 2015^[1] and the second one on February 25, 2016.^[2]

By 2021, ACEN would acquire full stakes on SLTEC, acquiring the shares of Axia Power Holdings Philippines of Marubeni.^[3] ACEN would completely divest it shares on SLTEC in 2022, marking its full transition to renewable energy.^[4] This marks the commencement of the plant's early retirement by 2030.^[5]
