2. History of EE&C Legal Framework


1980-85 BP73 An Act to Further Promote Energy Conservation and for Other Purposes 1985-90 BP872 An Act amending Sections ten and fourteen of BP73 [Extending BP] Empowerment of Ministers of various Ministers to perform certain acts; and, extension of BP273 for another 5-year period 1987 BP273 expired because of New Constitution and establishment of the congress after the displacement of President Marcos. Several EE&C bills were developed, but none of them were enacted. JICA supported DOE for drafting Energy Efficiency and Conservation Act of 2011

1990s~ 2011~
