History

The Philippines' Department of Energy (Filipino: Kagawaran ng Enerhiya), abbreviated as DOE is the executive department of the Philippine Government responsible for preparing, integrating, coordinating, supervising and controlling all plans, programs, projects and activities of the Government relative to energy exploration, development, utilization, distribution and conservation. The Department of Energy was created by then President Marcos as he issued Presidential Decree No. 1206 which created the Ministry of Energy and attached the National Power Corporation and Philippine National Oil Company to this new agency. The Ministry was abolished during the Regime of Corazon Aquino. During the Regime of President Fidel V. Ramos, that Department was created by virtue of Republic Act No. 7638 otherwise known as the Department of Energy Act of 1992. The Department was vested additional powers and functions under pertinent energy and power related legislations, such as Republic Act No. 9136 or the "Electric Power Industry Reform Act of 2001", Republic Act No. 9367 or "Biofuels Act of 2006", and Republic Act No. 9513 or "Renewable Energy Act of 2008."

Downstream Natural Gas

Downstream Natural Gas The birth of the Philippine natural gas industry brings the country closer to its goal of harnessing environment friendly fuels to ensure a stable, diverse and secure energy supply. However, the growth of this industry is anchored on the development of additional gas-generated capacity, other non-power applications and the necessary infrastructure that is to bring the natural gas to its potential markets. The infrastructure includes the appropriate pipeline transmission and distribution networks, LNG terminals and facilities, gas refilling stations for CNG-run vehicles and ancillary facilities. In the absence of the law for the natural gas sector, the stage for the industry’s development has been set with the preparation of a gas policy framework, industry rules and regulations. A clear and concise policies, objectives, programs and strategies formulated by the DOE, together with the critical cooperation and participation of the private sector, development of a natural gas industry is ensured. While there is still much to be done, the DOE will be at the forefront of efforts to rally the participants in this new industry to success.

Power Development Plan

Chapter 1. Power Sector Highlights, 2019-2020 assesses the Philippines’ power situation in terms of key power-related statistics and identifies the major policies and programs promulgated during the transition years 2019-2020. In this introductory chapter, the impacts of COVID-19 pandemic and natural calamities in the power sector were broadly discussed, along with the mitigating measures and actions undertaken within the industry. Chapter 2. Power Demand and Supply Outlook, 2020-2040 provides the annual peak demand forecast and power supply expansion plan on a per technology basis up to 2040 under multiple scenarios. In line with the DOE’s commitment towards a cleaner energy transition, the national renewable energy (RE) power generation mix target of 35% by 2030 and the aspirational target of 50% by 2040 were adopted. The country’s peak demand is expected to increase by almost four folds from 2020 to 2040 which is equivalent to about 7% growth annually. To meet this demand and the aspirational 50% RE target, the Philippines’ installed capacity should increase by about five times from 22,317 MW in 2019 to 114,601 MW in 2040, coming from existing, committed, and new build capacities. The transmission projects which are expected to support and accommodate new power plant capacities are likewise identified in this section for the reference of prospective investors and key stakeholders.

Philippine Energy Plan

Philippine Energy Plan 2020-2040 Overview As the country faces a multi-faceted challenge on its pandemic response programs, amidst the imposed lockdowns on economic activities, the Department of Energy (DOE) is presenting a track to attain an inclusive and equitable economic growth made possible through the provision of secure, sustainable, and resilient energy strategies. The Philippine Energy Plan (PEP) 2020-2040 is the second comprehensive energy blueprint supporting the government’s long-term vision known as Ambisyon Natin 2040. This updated plan, like its predecessor (PEP 2018-2040), reiterates the energy sector’s goal to chart a transformative direction towards attaining a clean energy future. Paving the path of transition into a more sustainable and resilient energy system, the sector’s direction has always been steered by Secretary Alfonso G. Cusi. This is in recognition to the message conveyed by President Rodrigo Roa Duterte of the energy sector requisites – sustainability and availability of energy to wean away from traditional sources and development of alternative ones. To carry out the President’s instructions, the Energy Secretary clearly pointed the transformative changes imperative to align with the Administration’s call. These resulted into policies directed by the Energy Secretary and include, among others, the aggressive Renewable Energy (RE) and Energy Efficiency and Conservation (EEC) institutionalization programs, the moratorium on new coal power projects, a mechanism allowing foreign ownership on large-scale geothermal projects under financial and technical assistance agreement or FTAA, the resumption of indigenous oil and gas exploration, the introduction of liquefied natural gas (LNG) portfolio, establishment of strategic petroleum reserves and exploration of Hydrogen's potential. Having the policies in place, the Energy Secretary reaffirmed the sector’s mindfulness in putting consumers first and that energy must be equitable to all Filipinos. The crafted PEP 2020-2040 is the amalgamation of the envisioned transition and transformation resonated by the Administration. Under its Clean Energy Scenario (CES), the PEP provides for ambitious plans, policies and targets on renewable energy, natural gas, alternative fuels, and energy efficient technologies. To make the country’s low carbon energy transformation a reality, the following goals have been set for the medium to long-term planning horizon: Click to view/download Philippine Energy Plan 2020-2040 Reference Scenario Present development trends and strategies continue; 35.0 percent renewable energy share in the power generation mix by 2040; LNG importation starting 2022; Energy Consumption levels that support an accelerated economic expansion post COVID-19; Current blending schedule for biofuels (2.0 percent biodiesel and 10.0 percent bioethanol) maintained until 2040; 5.0 percent penetration rate of electric vehicles for road transport (motorcycles, cars, jeepneys) by 2040; and Current efforts on EEC as a way of life continues until 2040. Clean Energy Scenario 35.0 percent and 50.0 percent RE share in the power generation mix by 2030 and 2040; 5.0 percent blending for biodiesel starting 2022; 1.5 percent increase in aggregated natural gas consumption from the transport and industry sectors between 2020 and 2040; 10.0 percent penetration rate of electric vehicles for road transport (motorcycles, cars, jeepneys) by 2040; 5.0 percent energy savings on oil products and electricity by 2040; and At least 12.0 percent reduction in the GHG emission for the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC).
