Speaking before an audience of over 100 executives from top corporations, emergent businesses, and academic institutions, DivinaLaw Senior Partner Atty. Jay Layug shared his thoughts and perspectives on how business leaders can incorporate energy risks into their investment and growth strategies.
“If you have excess land, maybe start considering building your own power supply because it will be cheaper for you,” said Atty. Layug. “If your land or rooftop is sitting empty, we can guide you in how to build solar panels, and with battery.”
Atty. Layug also encouraged businesses to adopt sustainability practices, such as opting to use more energy-efficient appliances.
Atty. Layug was invited by the Financial Executives Institute of the Philippines (FINEX) for its 6th General Membership Meeting themed “Energy Crisis, Economic Crossroads: Charting the Philippines’ Financial Future.” He was joined by fellow speaker, economist Dr. JC Punongbayan.
Atty. Layug is the co-head of DivinaLaw’s Energy practice group and is also the president of the Developers of Renewable Energy for Advancement (DREAM), the umbrella organization of renewable energy associations in the Philippines.
