    26 Philippines 26.1 Summary of Coal Industry 26.1.1 ROLE OF COAL IN THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES Currently, coal-fired thermal power plants remain the number one producer of electricity and accounted for a total of 5,568 megawatts (MW), or 33 percent, of the Republic of the Philippines’ total installed power generating capacity in 2012 (PDOE, 2014a). The Philippines consumed 16.3 million tonnes (Mmt) of coal in 2012, around 75 percent of which was for power generation (EIA, 2014; Ocampo, 2012). The Philippines relies on imports to meet coal demand, importing 10.6 Mmt from Indonesia and 277 thousand tonnes from Vietnam in 2011 (Ocampo, 2012). The Philippine Energy Plan 2012-2030 (PEP) projects coal demand to increase by more than 70 percent between 2012 and 2030 (PDOE, 2014b). The country’s recoverable coal reserves, as shown in Table 26-1, are estimated at 315 Mmt, with most reserves as lignite. Total coal resources compiled by the Geothermal and Coal Resources Development Division (GCRDD) of the Department of Energy of the Philippines, are estimated at a minimum of 2,268.4 Mmt (USGS, 2006). The Philippines produced 8.0 Mmt of coal in 2012, the highest annual production to date. Coal production is increasing rapidly, more than doubling between 2008 and 2012 (EIA, 2014). The PEP projects domestic coal production to continue to increase, reaching more than 11 Mmt in 2015 and more than 12.5 Mmt in 2020 (PDOE, 2014b). Table 26-1.

  • Regional Development Agenda Zamboanga Peninsula (Region IX)
    Regional Development Agenda Zamboanga Peninsula (Region IX) With cautious optimism, Zamboanga Peninsula treads toward its most logical destination, that of evolving into a major player in the national economic arena. The region is eyeing at making a more significant contribution to the country’s GNP, having a bigger participation in the export market, and firming up stronger trade links with other regions and with the economies of Southeast Asia. Under the Strong Republic Nautical Highway, Dapitan City in Region IX is Mindanao’s closest gateway to Visayas and Luzon – 2 hours by fastcraft to Dumaguete City in Visayas, or 4 hours by roll-on-roll-off (RORO) ship. The region’s strategic location and its rich natural resources are indicative of its potentials in assuming a pivotal role in further strengthening Mindanao’s trade link with BIMP-EAGA, and other countries in the East and South, particularly the Muslim countries in the Middle East, the New Zealand and Australian Bloc, respectively. It is therefore the country’s Southern Gateway to the rest of the world. Its vast coastline of 1,330 kilometers and access to five (5) of the richest fishing grounds in the country – the Sulu Sea, Moro Gulf, Sindangan Bay, Pilas Channel, and Celebes Sea – and its diverse marine life and ecosystem, home to exotic and export- oriented marine resources, makes the region Mindanao’s Coastal Fishery Center. Over the next decade, the overall development agenda for the region entails a more serious investment on physical infrastructures and human capital, the first being aimed at forging greater physical and economic integration of the region’s cities and provinces with the rest of the country; the second, being geared at building people’s competencies and capabilities to face new market challenges, adapt to changes in technology, and contend with higher technical manpower demands of a growing economy.
