The Bulacan Energy Challenge

Bulacan in Central Luzon is one of the fastest growing industrial corridors in the Philippines. Major food processors, cold chain operators and manufacturers are concentrated here. The region contributed 17% of Philippine GDP and continues to attract investment — now facing the diesel emergency alongside rising WESM electricity costs.

With diesel now at ₱119/litre — up 83% from ₱65 in 4 weeks — every litre your data centre burns is costing dramatically more than it did weeks ago. The time to switch is now.

Why Bulacan Data Centres Operators Are Switching

Diesel at ₱119/litre — and Rising

Philippine diesel hit ₱119/litre in March 2026 — up 83% from ₱65 in 4 weeks. Every litre your boiler burns now costs dramatically more. iHEAT R290 runs on electricity — no diesel, no price risk, no Scope 1 emissions.

SEC PFRS S2 Reporting

Every litre of diesel your facility burns is now a reportable Scope 1 emission under SEC Memorandum Circular No. 16 (2025). iHEAT eliminates Scope 1 from heating entirely. Zero to report.

WESM Price Surges

Electricity prices are volatile but iHEAT at COP 4.0–5.0 uses 75% less electricity than electric resistance heating for the same output. Even as grid prices rise your effective cost stays low.

Natural Refrigerant

R290 propane has GWP of just 3 — completely exempt from Kigali Amendment phase-downs. Future-proof for 30+ years. No PFAS. No forever chemicals. iCOOL for precision cooling, iMESH for heat networks.

How Karnot iHEAT R290 Works for Data Centres
