Energy Development Corporation is the Philippines' largest producer of geothermal power and the acknowledged global leader in wet steamfield technology. It is primarily engaged in the exploration, development, and optimization of geothermal steamfields. The company has now also expanded its operations to power generation via its own power plants.

Created in March 1976 to lead the Philippines' quest for energy self-sufficiency, the mission of Energy Development Corporation (or "EDC") is to explore and develop indigenous energy sources, focusing on those that are clean and renewable to ensure the preservation of the country's environment.

EDC now accounts for more than 60% of the country's installed geothermal capacity of 1,905 MW. It is responsible for making the Philippines the second largest producer of geothermal energy in the world, next only to the United States. The Company's total production of 1,150 MW comes from its geothermal streamfields in Leyte (also the world's largest wet steamfield), Negros Oriental,Negros Occidental, Bicol and North Cotabato.
