The Philippines’ evolving power mix is being shaped by parallel developments in offshore wind, energy storage, and gas/LNG infrastructure. Each of these technologies addresses different dimensions of reliability, affordability, and sustainability.

Join our Asia Chapter for a three-panel discussion exploring the latest developments in this space, including the ERC-approved Green Energy Auction Reserve Price for offshore wind, the DOE-mandated integration of battery energy storage systems (BESS) into variable renewable energy projects with a minimum capacity of 10 MW, and the role of gas/LNG in the country’s energy transition.
