The Application is filed pursuant to Rule 20(B) of the Energy Regulatory Coniniission's Rules of Practice and Procedure ("ERC Rules"), and other pertinent rules and regulations, for the Honorable Conmsion's approval of the Renewable Energy Supply Agreement (RESA), executed by and between ZAMSURECO I and ASTRONERGY. Copy of the RESA is attached hereto and made integral part hereof as Annex "L". I COMPLIANCE WITH PRE-FILING REQUIREMENTS 5. ZAMSURECO I and ASTRONERGY furnished the concerned legislative bodies of the local government units where they principally operate with copy of the Application together with all the annexes and accompanying documents. Copies of the proof of service to the Sanggtmiang Panlungsod of the Cities of Pagadian and Mandaluyong and the Sangguniang Panlalawigan of the Province of Zamboanga del Sur are hereto attached and made integral parts hereof as Annexes "M", "N" and "0, respectively. 6. ZAMSURECO I caused the publication of the instant Application in its entirety with the exception of Annexes, in a newspaper of general circulation within its franchise area. Copies of the corresponding Affidavit of Publication and the newspaper are attached as Annexes "P" and "P-i", respectively. STATEMENT OF THE FACTS 7. At present, ZAMSURECO I sources the majority of its power requirements from the Power Sector Assets and Liabilities Management Corporation (PSALM) under a contract for the Supply of Electric Energy (CSEE) which will expire on December 2016. The remainder of its power requirements is sourced from Therma South Inc., Therma Marine Inc. and Mapalad Power Corp. 3j P a g e 8. It is uncertain whether PSALM still has the capacity to supply power requirements beyond December 2016 as PSALM is in the process of privatizing its generation assets in Mindanao. In fact the contracted capacity under the current CSEE of ZAMSURECO I and PSALM is already a reduced capacity in view of the existence of a region-wide power supply deficiency problem in Mindanao. 9. The reduced capacity has already resulted in daily rotating brown-outs in the franchise area of ZAMSURECO I at an average of three (3) hours per day. 10. Further, the energy requirements of ZAMSURECO I customers is projected to increase in the next few years as demonstrated by ZAMSURECO I Distribution Development Plan, Supply-Demand Outlook and Forecasted Demand, copies of which are attached hereto and made integral parts hereof as Annexes "Q"R" and "S", respectively. 11. In order to ensure sufficient power supply to the ZAMSURECO I service area, the power requirements of the cooperative should be adequately covered by supply contracts. 12. Sometime in the year 2014, ASTRONERGY, offered to supply power to ZAMSURECO I, to partly address the latter's power supply deficiency. 13. ZAMSURECO I decided to contract with ASTRONERGY because of its commitment to deliver power within a short time from approval by the Energy Regulatory Conmiission. The short construction period of less than a year will provide immediate relief to the power deficiency problems of ZAMSURECO I. In addition, the energy price for power delivered under the RESA is fixed at an agreed rate for the entire contract period which will help insulate ZAMSURECO I from any external factors that may cause price hikes in the future. 14. Furthermore, the power offered by ASTRONERGY is appropriate to ZAMSURECO Is daytime power requirement based on the ZAMSURECO I average daily load profile for the past twelve months prior to the filing of this application and ASTRONERGY's generation curve. Copies of ZAMSURECO I historical and projected Average Daily Load Curve and ASTRONERGY's Solar Plant Load Curve are attached hereto and made integral parts hereof as Annexes "T" and 'lull, respectively. 41 P a g e 15. More importantly, ASTRONERGY agreed to be an embedded generator. The delivery of power from its plant provides benefits in terms of support for ZAMSURECO I distribution system and savings in purchased power since there are no transmission charges and systems losses. 16. Finally, ZAMSURECO Is utilization of a renewable energy source like ASTRONERGY's solar power is in support of government policy promoting the use of renewable energy so as to reduce the emission of pollutants. 17. ZAMSURECO I and ASTRONERGY executed a RESA on 28 July 2015. Details on the procurement process undertaken by ZAMSURECO I which led to the selection of ASTRONERGY (as stated in the Affidavit of the ZAMSURECO I General Manager) is attached hereto as Annex "V". Likewise, the ZAMSURECO I Board Resolution authorizing the execution of the RESA with ASTRONERGY is attached hereto and made an integral part hereof as Annex "W". THE RENEWABLE ENERGY SUPPLY AGREEMENT AND THE MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT MATERIAL PROVISIONS AND OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION . 18. Project Description. In order to supply power to ZAMSURECO I under the RESA, ASTRONERGY shall construct, own, operate, manage and maintain ASTRONERGY's Pagadian Solar Project (PSP) located at Barangay Banale, Pagadian City. Copies of the Department of Energy Solar Service Contract Application and Department of Environment and Natural Resources Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) and the filed application for Board of Investment Certificate of Registration, covering the PSP are attached hereto and made integral parts hereof as Annexes "X", "1" and "Z", respectively. 19. The PSP will be designed and constructed using polycrystalline photovoltaic modules connected to a 1MW inverter. All inverters on each site will be combined through a single on-site substation, before interconnecting to the ZAMSURECO I grid. Copies of the PSP Plant Description and Astronergy Limited Warranty for Crystalline PV Module are attached hereto and made integral parts hereof as Annexes "AA" and "BB", respectively. 5j P a g e 20. The commercial operation date of PSP is estimated to be within six (6) months from the date of receipt of the approval of the Application for Provisional Authority by the Energy Regulatory Commission. 21. Salient Features of the RESA. 21.1. Product. The capacity to be delivered and sold by ASTRONERGY and received and purchased by ZAMSURECO I under the RESA is "As-Available Energy", produced by the PSP (net of station service). 5 The capacity provided under the RESA shall be supplied from PSP only. 6 21.2.

  • 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.

    ZAMBOANGA PENINSULA PRIORITY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS FOR RESOURCE MOBILIZATION December 2015 FOREWORD This document is the output of the Regional Development Council (RDC) IX Secretariat’s effort to push the development of the region by facilitating the identifi cation of the priority interventions that need the support of donor agencies, policymakers, particularly the region’s congressional representatives, national government agencies, and the Mindanao Development Authority. It is largely based on the submissions of ZamPen’s regional line agencies and local government units. Following a set of RDC-approved criteria, the projects identifi ed shall sail the region towards its vision of becoming the Southern Agri-Fisheries Corridor of the Philippines. This portfolio is anticipated to jumpstart resource mobilization as it equips a potential investor with the details of the region’s priority programs/projects. It shall be a living document, which needs periodic updating and monitoring. The continued concerted efforts among the RDC IX sectoral committee members and the Council itself are therefore fervently sought, in pursuit of regional development.
