Highlights

  • The country targets a share of 35% of renewables in the power mix and a 75% reduction of its GHG emissions in 2030.
  • The third renewable auction is planned in August 2024 and will offer 4.2 GW of hydro and geothermal.
  • More than 90% of the electricity generation comes from IPPs. EDC is the world's largest geothermal company.
  • A JV between MEXP, UC Undenna, and PNOC exploits the Malampaya gas field.
  • The country holds around 13 GW of exploitable hydro resources and 2.5 GW of geothermal potential.
  • The share of coal in the power mix increased by 26 points since 2010 to 60% in 2022.
  • Coal imports have tripled since 2010.
  • Fuel and electricity prices decreased in 2023 after 3 years of continued increase.
  • Electricity prices are amongst the highest in Asean.
  • Coal and oil represent 62% of total energy consumption.
  • Households absorb 39% of electricity consumption.
  • A very rapid growth in energy demand is expected by 2040 (around 6%/year).
  • The country aims to increase LNG imports to anticipate a decrease in gas production and a coal phase-out.

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    The Department of Energy (DOE) is in charge of the energy sector. The DOE has six bureaus: Energy Policy and Planning Bureau (EPPB), Energy Resources Development Bureau (ERDB), Electric Power Industry Management Bureau (EPIMB), Oil Industry Management Bureau (OIMB), Renewable Energy Management Bureau (REMB), and Energy Utilization and Management Bureau (EUMB).

  • Energy Companies

    Gas:

    A joint venture bringing together MEXP (Malampaya Energy XP)) (45%), UC Undenna (45%), and PNOC (10%) is operating the gas field of Malampaya, which was commissioned in 2001 (proven reserves of around 75 bcm; total cost of €4.6bn). A 20-year contract covers the gas supply to 3 power plants, with a total capacity of 2.7 GW, on the Batangas site.

  • Energy Supply

    Oil:

    Oil production is low and decreasing (0.39 Mt in 2022) and covers 7% of oil demand.

    Crude oil imports jumped by almost 50% in 2022 to 5.9 Mt, after a rapid decrease since 2018 with the closure of the Tabangao refinery (-23%/year). Prior to 2018, they increased rapidly between 2013 and 2018 (around 9%/year, up to 11.5 Mt).

  • Energy Prices

    Oil:

    Within the framework of the law on the downstream oil sector, the prices of oil products are now free, with the exception of products considered to be "socially" sensitive, like kerosene.

  • Energy Consumption

    Per capita energy consumption is 0.56 toe, including 790 kWh of electricity (2022). These levels are two times lower than the ASEAN average (2022 levels).

    Total energy consumption has been increasing by 4%/year since 2020, reaching 64.5 Mtoe in 2022, after a 5.5% drop in 2020. Previously, it had been increasing by 4.5%/year since 2009, reaching a 61 Mtoe peak in 2019.

  • Issues & Prospects

    According to the Energy demand and supply outlook included in the PEP 2020-2040, final energy consumption will increase 3-fold by 2040 from 2020 (5.8%/year), driven by the transport and industry sectors.
