Cement Credits-Total Ash Management Program
A contract for sale of coal ash is an agreement whereby Republic collects from GMEC the ash it generates from the combustion of coal and translates the price “paid” for the ash into credits for physical cement products from Republic. GMEC makes the cement products available to the Province of Bataan via delivery of the product to the actual site of an approved/verified public works project in the province. The partnership forged between GMEC, Republic and the Province of Bataan has created a unique opportunity for all parties to be part once more of a driven effort to safeguard the environment and build a nation, by transforming an erstwhile common by-product into an integral component of progress. This agreement was signed on 30 August 2012.

Environmental Enhancement Program
Sitio Karagatan Reforestation Program
On the 6th of June, 2014, the Memorandum of Agreement between Authority of the Freeport Area of Bataan (AFAB) and GNPower Mariveles Coal Plant, Ltd. Co. (GMEC) was signed. The MOA enables GMEC to perform its reforestation project at AFAB’s 48-hectare non-watershed forest area for the duration of 6 years. GMEC has allocated a budget of P8, 750,000.00 for the whole project. The event was witnessed by staff from both AFAB and GMEC.
Nursery at Sitio Karagatan
A nursery was set-up at the Sitio Karagatan site initially for raising of seedlings for seedling replacement activities at Sitio Karagatan. Currently, additional seedlings raised are donated for tree planting activities.
Mt. Mariveles Riverbank Stabilization Program
As part of GMEC’s commitment to the environment, this program aims to stabilize areas alongside the river of Mt. Mariveles with high possibility of soil erosion through planting of bamboo species. This program also aims to contribute to the livelihood of the community with the use of products that can be derived from bamboo.
War on Waste (WOW) Program
The War on Waste Drive or WOW Drive Project was initially proposed by GNPower Mariveles Coal Plant Ltd. Co. (GMEC) to its Multipartite Monitoring Team (MMT) in 2017. It was agreed that the MMT will spearhead the project and shall be participated by the plant’s neighboring Barangays. The program was postponed due to the reorganization of the team and the barangay elections. Because of the aforementioned events, GMEC ComRel and with the assistance from the Environment Team, has decided to proceed with its implementation as we see the need of the program especially this time that the municipality as a whole is experiencing waste disposal problem as a result of the closure of the Mariveles open dumpsite. Through our War on Waste Drive, we can help minimize the amount of waste disposed by our neighboring Barangays by teaching them the importance of segregation and later on, introduce a sustainable livelihood program by using recyclable materials which are otherwise considered as trash that will provide an alternative source of income for the community and also in support to the waste management of each Barangay in accordance to RA 9003 Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000. The success of this project will help us consider the implementation of the program to other Barangays in Mariveles.
