The only way out is to have a new path that is green growth. To use renewable growth to deliver energy – solar energy and wind power – instead of the coal-based energy supply. And that is the only solution.

In Germany already hundreds of thousands of solar panels cover our roof-tops. But (...) when I see the very hot climate here in the Philippines (...), I am attempted to say: solar energy is coming home.

This project demonstrates that indeed renewable energy projects are indispensable to national development. We know, the benefits adress the countries growing energy demand.

The Philippines are among one of the most promising markets for renewable energies in South East Asia. By 2017, 90% of all households are to be connected to the power supply. (…) ThomasLloyd recognised this development early on and has already conceptualised and realised groundbreaking projects.

It should actually be self-evident: we have a climate problem in this world, which must be solved. (...) private economic activities offering alternative energies profitably are the right thing.

The environment does not belong to you or to me. This is what the creator God gave us all. To work, to learn, to love and to respect, to make good business, but to leave a legacy. To leave this planet and this air for not just generations - for the whole mankind.

We are here today to celebrate the real action heroes, that are fighting for clean energy. Those are the real action heroes. Your company helps empower those heroes.

And the opportunity for alternative approaches to completely traditional, grid-connected electricity presents itself very powerfully.

If I were running a country in South-East Asia today, I would want to get as much locally generated clean-technology electricity as I possibly could.

Today, we are not just inaugurating a power plant; we are also making history: (…) With your help we are proving the world: even developing countries such as ours can do their share in reducing the risks posed by global warming.

Your actions as you move strongly investing in this area are changing the politics, they´re changing the understanding. And that means that you are at the vanguard of this whole political story as well as the economic and business story.
