FIRST GEN CORP. has partnered with Divine Mercy Wellness and Medical Center in Tuguegarao City, Cagayan to supply the hospital with renewable energy from its Tongonan Geothermal Power Plant in Leyte.

The agreement covers the electricity needs of the 100-bed facility, supporting its shift to cleaner power, First Gen said in a statement over the weekend.

“Geothermal power provides a clean, reliable and consistent energy source — qualities that are vital for hospitals,” said Carlo Vega, First Gen’s chief customer engagement officer.

Divine Mercy, part of the Mount Grace Hospital network under the UNILAB Group, employs more than 200 medical specialists providing 24/7 radiology, pathology, laboratory and other services.

“Our partnership with First Gen reinforces our commitment to environmental stewardship while ensuring the provision of high-quality healthcare,” said Divine Mercy President Godofredo Cruz.

The deal was facilitated through the government’s green energy option program, which lets qualified consumers with at least 100 kilowatts in average peak demand select their preferred electricity supplier.

First Gen has partnered with Capitol University Medical Center in Mindanao, supplying its 200-bed hospital, including specialty care units like the Kidney Institute.

The company operates over 1,700 megawatts (MW) of renewable capacity across 22 geothermal, wind, solar and hydropower facilities, part of its total installed capacity of 3,696 MW across various energy sources. — Sheldeen Joy Talavera

China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise

The post China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise China’s internet regulator has ordered the country’s biggest technology firms, including Alibaba and ByteDance, to stop purchasing Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D GPUs. According to the Financial Times, the move shuts down the last major channel for mass supplies of American chips to the Chinese market. Why Beijing Halted Nvidia Purchases Chinese companies had planned to buy tens of thousands of RTX Pro 6000D accelerators and had already begun testing them in servers. But regulators intervened, halting the purchases and signaling stricter controls than earlier measures placed on Nvidia’s H20 chip. Image: Nvidia An audit compared Huawei and Cambricon processors, along with chips developed by Alibaba and Baidu, against Nvidia’s export-approved products. Regulators concluded that Chinese chips had reached performance levels comparable to the restricted U.S. models. This assessment pushed authorities to advise firms to rely more heavily on domestic processors, further tightening Nvidia’s already limited position in China. China’s Drive Toward Tech Independence The decision highlights Beijing’s focus on import substitution — developing self-sufficient chip production to reduce reliance on U.S. supplies. “The signal is now clear: all attention is focused on building a domestic ecosystem,” said a representative of a leading Chinese tech company. Nvidia had unveiled the RTX Pro 6000D in July 2025 during CEO Jensen Huang’s visit to Beijing, in an attempt to keep a foothold in China after Washington restricted exports of its most advanced chips. But momentum is shifting. Industry sources told the Financial Times that Chinese manufacturers plan to triple AI chip production next year to meet growing demand. They believe “domestic supply will now be sufficient without Nvidia.” What It Means for the Future With Huawei, Cambricon, Alibaba, and Baidu stepping up, China is positioning itself for long-term technological independence. Nvidia, meanwhile, faces…
