Beyond the hour, PNB Holdings drives year-round impact

PNB Makati Center along Ayala Avenue powers down select lights for Earth Hour 2026.

PNB Holdings Corporation (PHC) joined the Earth Hour 2026 by shutting off nonessential lighting across its major properties in Pasay and Makati.

The coordinated switch‑off continues PHC’s broader resource management program and provides a scheduled opportunity to reinforce its year‑round energy efficiency measures. The initiative also supported ongoing efforts to monitor consumption patterns and validate operational strategies already in place across the company’s facilities.

Beyond the annual observance, PHC continued to implement sustainability initiatives designed to make environmental responsibility part of its daily operations. A key effort is the EcoStation, introduced through a partnership with Rezbin, a multi awarded and tech enabled waste management company. The EcoStation uses a behavior driven, rewards-based system that supports easier and more consistent recycling across PHC properties.

Since its launch at the PNB Makati Center in November 2025, the program has diverted more than 17,000 recyclable deposits from landfills. PHC has also expanded the initiative further with a rollout at the PNB Financial Center in Pasay City.

Aside from these waste management initiatives, the real estate company optimized equipment schedules based on real occupancy, ensuring pumps, elevators, and chillers operated only when needed and continued upgrading to LED lighting, variable frequency drives, and inverter-type systems.

PHC also enhanced water efficiency across its properties through better system tuning and operational improvements. At the PNB Financial Center, its onsite sewage treatment plant played a key role to reuse treated water for landscape irrigation.
