ReGen’s journey continues! With DOST’s support now officially turned over, they’re all set to begin developing their smart, sustainable energy solution. Onward from Founders Live Balanga to real-world impact!

𝐃𝐎𝐒𝐓 𝐈𝐈𝐈 𝐓𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐬 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐅𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐁𝐏𝐒𝐔’𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐆𝐞𝐧 𝐒𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐄𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧

The Department of Science and Technology , through its Provincial Science and Technology Office in Bataan, officially turned over funding support to the team behind ReGen: Rentable Solar Generator from Bataan Peninsula State University – College of Information and Communications Technology (BPSU-CICT), and Local Government Unit of Balanga through the Management Information Services Office.

This award-winning innovative and sustainable energy solution is designed to complement the City of Balanga’s Smart City initiatives. ReGen offers a portable, renewable energy source that is both scalable and accessible—making clean energy more attainable for communities.

The funding follows ReGen’s recognition as the top winner in the 2024 iDEA+ Reverse Pitching Competition held last April 10–11, 2024 at Isabela Convention Center, Cauayan City, Isabela. iDea+ Reverse Pitching, which is part of the DOST organized International Smart Cities and Communities Exposition and Networking Engagement (iSCENE), is a competition where startups present their ideas to potential investors or partners seeking feedback and potential collaboration.

DOST continues to champion homegrown innovations and technology-driven solutions that drive inclusive and sustainable development across the country.
