The local unit of Japan’s Nissan Motor Co. Ltd has partnered with Pasig City and the Ortigas Center Association to demonstrate the Nissan LEAF’s V2X technology to light up the Ortigas Center Christmas display.
Present at the Christmas tree lighting activity were Lone District of Pasig City Representative Roman Romulo, Barangay San Antonio Captain Raymond Lising, representatives of the Ortigas Center Association Inc., lead by General Manager Adeli Jandayan.
The vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology of the world’s first mass market electric vehicle (EV) enables bi-directional charging to use energy from the LEAF battery to power home and office, or simply give back energy to the power grid.
“Nissan and Pasig City share a common vision of a smarter, safer, and more sustainable future, and the adoption of electric vehicles in the country is an important part of this future. We hope that the Nissan LEAF, lighting this Christmas tree in one of the country’s foremost business centers, offers a shining symbol of hope and a bright future for Filipinos,” said Atsushi Najima, President and Managing Director of Nissan Philippines Inc.
Nissan will also be displaying the Nissan LEAF to showcase the powerful V2X technology by lighting Christmas trees in Glorietta on December 11 to 13, and Alabang Town Center on December 18 to 20.
