Out of over 22,700 companies scored by CDP in 2024, this recognition underscores Manila Water’s ongoing leadership in water stewardship.

 

“We are incredibly proud to achieve an ‘A’ listing from CDP for our water security efforts,” said Manila Water President and CEO Jocot de Dios.

 

“This recognition validates our unwavering commitment to responsible water management and reflects the dedication of our entire team.  Sustainability is a core component that informs our long-term vision for all areas of operation, as we ensure continued service to over 12 million people globally.”

 

In addition to its ‘A’ rating for Water, Manila Water maintained a ‘B’ score in its climate assessment, further demonstrating its commitment to addressing interconnected environmental challenges.

 

Their consistent climate rating highlights their proactive approach to upholding the evolving corporate transparency standards, particularly as CDP’s expanded platform in 2024 aligns with the ISSB Climate-related Disclosures Standard.

Manila Water remains steadfast in its mission to provide reliable and sustainable water services while actively contributing to the transition to a low-carbon economy. 

This CDP recognition serves as further motivation to continue innovating and improving its water security and climate change initiatives, benefiting its customers, the environment, and setting a benchmark for corporate responsibility in the Philippines.
