Sa direktiba ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. na mapanatiling matatag ang suplay ng langis sa bansa, matagumpay na naiproseso at nasiguro ng Philippine National Oil Company Exploration Corporation (PNOC EC) ang pagdating ng kabuuang 165,678,000 litro (1.042 milyong bariles) ng diesel.

Mula sa kabuuang volume, ang unang shipment na may kargang 22,578,000 litro (142,000 bariles) ng diesel ay naihatid noong March 26, habang ang natitirang pang mga kargamento ay nakatakdang dumating sa mga susunod na linggo ng Abril.

Patuloy ang Department of Energy, katuwang ang PNOC EC, sa pagpapatupad ng mga kinakailangang hakbang upang mapangalagaan ang energy security ng bansa at masuportahan ang pangangailangan ng bawat tahanan, commuter, at negosyo sa suplay ng langis, lalo na sa gitna ng nagpapatuloy na kaganapan sa Middle East.

The Department of Energy (DOE), together with key power sector stakeholders, successfully facilitated the installation of three Current Transformer (CT) at Bay 1 of the Calangatan Switching Station in Oriental Mindoro. The completed works now enable the full dispatch of wind power from the island’s largest renewable energy facility.

THE NATIONAL Grid Corp. of the Philippines (NGCP), the country’s sole grid operator, is proposing to develop a P23.9-billion submarine cable to allow Batangas to export much-needed electricity to Oriental Mindoro.

In a filing with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, NGCP said it is seeking to install a 500-kilovolt (kV) subsea cable crossing the Verde Island Passage between Lobo, Batangas, and Calapan City, Oriental Mindoro.

The 28.5-kilometer submarine cable will consist of six operational cables and one spare cable. The cables will be buried at a depth of two meters in shallow waters.

NGCP is targeting completion of the proposed project by January 2028. The Department of Energy has certified the project as an energy project of national significance.

The submarine cable system will serve as the central link for Stage 1 of the P90.6-billion Batangas-Mindoro 500-kV Interconnection and Backbone Project (BMIBP).

The Energy Regulatory Commission approved the proposed project last year as an “upgraded” version of the Batangas-Mindoro Interconnection Project.

NGCP has been directed to complete the entire project by the end of 2030.

Currently, Mindoro Island is not connected to the national grid and depends on diesel-based generation, making it vulnerable to unstable supply and higher generation costs.

“The Mindoro Island is expected to benefit from the proposed project through improved access to power from the main Luzon Grid, reduced reliance on diesel power plants, and the development of renewable energy plants within and offshore Mindoro Island,” the company said.

The subsea cable project is scheduled for public scoping on March 25. The activity is an early stage of the environmental impact assessment process, during which the project proponent will present an overview of the development and gather feedback from stakeholders.

Under a congressionally granted 50-year franchise, NGCP has the right to operate and maintain the transmission system and related facilities, and to exercise the right of eminent domain as needed to construct, expand, maintain, and operate the transmission system.

Sa direktiba ng Pangulo na pabilisin at palawakin ang Net-Metering Program, pinabilis na ang serbisyo para sa mga Pilipinong nais gumamit ng sariling renewable energy. Sa pangunguna ng Department of Energy (DOE) at sa pamamagitan ng whole-of-government approach kasama ang DILG, DPWH, at ERC, pinaiikli ang proseso ng permits, pinapasimple ang mga requirements, at pinapalawak ang benepisyo para sa mga konsyumer.

Sa ilalim ng Joint Memorandum Circular, inatasan ang mga LGU na maglabas ng 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐬𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐛 𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐰 𝐚𝐭 𝐂𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐛 𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐰. Kapag hindi nakasunod sa itinakdang panahon, ituturing na “deemed approved” ang aplikasyon. Inutusan rin ng ERC ang mga distribution utilities na bawasan at i-standardize ang dokumentong hinihingi, kabilang ang pagtanggap ng electronic signatures at hindi na kinakailangang notarization.

Bilang dagdag na tugon sa panawagan ng Pangulo, naglabas ang DOE ng Supplemental Policy na mas nagpapalakas sa benepisyo ng net-metering: mananatili na sa end-users ang Renewable Energy Certificates na maaari nilang ipagbili, at maaari na ring pagsamahin ang net-metering credits ng maraming accounts para mas malaki ang matipid.
