Department of Energy Empowering the Filipinos Challenges / Barriers to RE Development

High upfront and technology costs Non-competitiveness Non-viable markets Inaccessible Financial Packages Social Acceptability

To address these barriers, the Government promulgated landmark Laws to accelerate development of the country’s renewable energy resources.

Department of Energy Empowering the Filipinos Landmark Laws

REPUBLIC REPUBLIC ACT NO. ACT NO. 9367 9513

The primary bioenergy policy of the country is governed by two landmark laws.

Department of Energy Empowering the Filipinos R.A. 9367: Biofuels Act of 2006

An Act to direct the use of biofuels, establishing for this purpose the Biofuel Program, Appropriating Funds therefore, and for other purposes

Signed into law on January 12, 2007

Republic Act 9367, also known as the Biofuels Act of 2006, was implemented to increase the contribution of biofuels in the country’s energy mix thereby reducing its dependence on imported fossil-based fuels, enhance the quality of the environment, and create opportunities for countryside socio-economic development.

Department of Energy Empowering the Filipinos R. A. No. 9367: The Biofuels Act of 2006

Provides fiscal incentives and mandates the use of biofuel- blended gasoline and diesel fuels

BIODIESEL BIOETHANOL 2% biodiesel blend on Feb. 6, 2009 10% bioethanol blend to all gasoline on Feb. 6, 2012

Supply: Supply: . 11 Accredited Producers with annual . 12 accredited Producers with annual total total capacity of 574.9 million liters capacity of about 380.5 million liters . 4 registered projects undergoing . 3 registered projects undergoing construction with a total annual construction with a total annual combined combined capacity of 292.65 million capacity of 113 million liters liters

Department of Energy Empowering the Filipinos Biomass Roadmap

MEDIUM-TERM LONG-TERM OVERALL SHORT-TERM OBJECTIVE (2019-2020) (2021-2022) (2023-2040) BY 2040

• Continue technical capacity building on Biomass/Biofuels OTHER • Harmonize the DOE related programs with agro-forestry ACTIVITIES policies for an integrated use of biomass • Continue the conduct of IEC to attain social acceptability

ACTIVITIES TO BE UNDERTAKEN • Conduct information, education and communication (IEC) campaigns to LGUs on bioenergy policies and programs, i.e., waste to energy (WTE) in

collaboration with DENR-EMB, DOST-PCIEERD/ITDI, NSWMC; MW • Pursue collaboration activities with DENR-Forestry Management Bureau to harmonize DOE programs with agro-forestry policies towards an integrated

use of biomass; 20,000 • Participate in international and local conferences, seminars, fora and workshops to further information exchange and sharing of best practices on bioenergy and biofuel policies, emerging feedstock and utilization

technologies. INCREASE RE INSTALLED CAPACITY TO AT LEAST LEAST AT TO CAPACITY INCREASE INSTALLED RE

Department of Energy Empowering the Filipinos • Biofuels feedstock supply, sustainability and price;

• Competing use both for biofuel and biomass feedstock;

• Regulatory permits and processes ARTA Law

• Transmission line constraints e.g. , Negros Island;

Department of Energy Empowering the Filipinos The Way Forward

• Finalization / Approval of Guidelines on Renewable Energy Market (REM) Rules • Establish Energy Investment Full Coordinating Center and Linkages with Implementation other Government Regulatory Agencies • Resource Inventory and Establishment of of the RE Database Renewable • Capacity Building / Information, Energy Act Education and Communication Campaigns • More Investment Missions / Business Meetings
