Faces of Alsons:
Marcello Torres

Marcello Torres moved into retail electricity supply from a background in industrial sales, drawn by the chance to work directly with the large commercial and industrial customers Alsons Power's RES arm serves across Mindanao.

"Selling power isn't like selling a product off a shelf. Every client's load profile is different, and getting the contract structure right actually matters to whether their operations run smoothly," Marcello says of what drew him to the role.

He has since helped grow the company's roster of contestable customers, working closely with the pricing and operations teams to design supply agreements suited to each client's consumption patterns.

Marcello sees his work as part of a bigger shift happening across the industry, as more businesses gain the ability to choose their power supplier — and he wants Alsons Power's customer relationships to be the reason they stay.
