For more than three decades, Star City Amusement Park has been a place where generations of Filipinos come together. From childhood first rides to family traditions that span generations, Star City has earned its place as one of the most recognized amusement parks in the country.
Behind the lights, rides, and attractions is a business that runs on reliability. An amusement park of this scale needs steady power, smart energy choices, and a partner that understands how operations work at high demand.
Five years ago, Star City chose Mabuhay Energy Corporation (MECO) as its Retail Electricity Supplier. Since then, the partnership has been built on trust, performance, and a shared focus on long-term value. For a facility that welcomes thousands of guests and operates energy-intensive attractions, stability and efficiency matter every day.
Through the Retail Competition and Open Access (RCOA) program, Mabuhay Energy provides Star City with competitive electricity rates and flexible energy solutions that support smooth operations. This allows Star City to focus on what it does best by creating safe, memorable, and enjoyable experiences for the public.
This partnership reflects a bigger picture. Mabuhay Energy proudly partners with businesses of all scales, from emerging local enterprises to the country’s most iconic brands. Our diverse portfolio reflects our mission to supporting the full range of Filipino industries that shape our daily lives and fuel our nation’s progress.
Star City stands as a reminder that strong brands are built not only on what people see, but also on the systems that keep everything running behind the scenes. Five years in, this partnership continues to move forward with the same goal. Powering experiences that people love while growing a brighter, more empowered Philippines.
