The National Renewable Energy Program has set out

aggressive targets on renewable energy development

from 2011-2030, aiming to increase RE capacity to

15,304 megawatts by the year 2030.

Promote the growth of the low-carbon

economy as a means to create jobs and

curb carbon emissions.

Improve the livelihood and living conditions of the

poor, particularly those who currently have no access

to electricity.

Be sensitive and cognizant of the needs of the

As our feed-in tariff (FIT) system is in its

infancy stage, help us obtain the necessary

financial support and assistance especially in

covering our FIT-allowance payments to

ensure the further development of renewable

energy in the Philippines.
