Republic of the
Philippines

PROPOSED AGENDA
FOR THE DUTERTE
ADMINISTRATION
2016 - 2022

1.0 EXPAND/ FUND

SOLAR ROOFTOPS

EFFECT OF ROOFTOP SOLAR ENERGY

TO THE ECONOMY
1. FREE SUN ENERGYTO
EVERY HOME/ROOFTOP.
2. ANY EXCESS ENERGY
FROM SOLAR IS
EXPORTED TO THE GRID.
3. DUE TO THE FREE
ENERGY TO THE GRID,
IPPs WITH HIGH
OPERATING COSTS WILL
BE FORCED TO
RATIONALIZE & REDUCE
COSTS.

4. DISTRIBUTION UTILITIES/
TOLLWAYS TO LOWER THEIR
CHARGES, TOO.

5. THE COST PER KWHR

OF ELECTRICITY WILL
GO DOWN GRADUALLY.
6. MORE INVESTORS

WILL COME TO PUT

UP FACTORIES IN
OUR COUNTRY!

Every home rooftop is a large potential

collective area to tap the free energy from
the sun. If the 100 million population have
21 million homes in year 2015 (Source:
NSO) and say 10 million homes have at
least 500 watts solar capacity, this would be
equivalent to 5,000 MW capacity during
every sunny day, roughly 40 to 45% of the
present power demand of the entire
Philippine Grid.

EXPORT
KWHR METER

BUT WE
NEED TO
ACT FAST!

Otherwise, our other ASEAN

neighbors may act faster

1.1 Fund Rooftops & Modify

Meters to Allow Free Exports

1.2 Negotiate Higher

Rate for Paid Exports,
i.e. say @PhP 5.50/
KWHR

Present Meralco Buying Rate

@Php 4.80/ KWHR
versus
Meralco Selling Rate
@Php 11+ / KWHR (Ave.)

1.3 Revise PEZA Law to

Allow Sales of PV Panels
Locally
SOLAR PV PANELS
The Philippines is a host to SUNPOWER Solar Manufacturing

Company in Santa Rosa, Laguna

Founded 1985, purchased by Cypress Semiconductor in 2004, spun out

in 2008. SPWRA and SPWRB NASDAQ

HQs in San Jose, CA and Geneva, Switzerland

12 poly-silicon solar cell lines in the Philippines with a capacity of

314 MW/year, (but for exports only)

Expansion to 1 GW capacity in 2010

High efficiency cells: 21-23% (Most Efficient Commercial PV Panels)
Employees: 5,400

1.4 Encourage Gas Stations/

Stores/ Parking to Put up
Metered Charging Outlets

1.4.1 Encourage Gas

Stations/ Stores/ Parking
Facilities to Put up Metered
Charging Outlets

1.5 Review Incentives

Provided in R.A. 9513
(1) Income tax holiday;
(2) Duty-free importation of
renewable machinery, equipment,
and materials;
(3) Special realty tax rates;
(4) Net operating loss carry-over;
(5) Corporate tax rate of 10%;
(6) Accelerated depreciation of
plant, machinery, and equipment;
(7) 0% value-added tax rate;
(8) Tax exemption on carbon credits;

1.6 Launch Massive

Public Info Campaign
* TV
* RADIO AM & FM
* PRINT BROADSHEETS &
TABLOIDS
* SOCIAL MEDIA FACEBOOK,
TWEETER, INSTAGRAM,
ETC.
* SMS or TXT MESSAGES
* BILLBOARDS
* CAMPUS FORA

2.0 - Expand Energy

Storage Capacities
for Solar Energy
Because there will be plenty
of unlimited energy harvest
from the sun during any
regular sunny day through
the millions of solar rooftops,
then we will need to put up
large energy storage
capacities, like, storage

2.1 Expand Pump Storage

Hydro P/Ps (i.e. Kalayaan
PSH P/P). Priority is given to
IPPs Using Bunker Oil/ Coal
(Fossil fuels, except Gas
from Malampaya)

2.2 Put Up Storage

Battery Plants. Priority is
given to IPPs Using Bunker
Oil/ Coal

3.0 ENCOURAGE THE

PUBLIC TO MAXIMIZE
THE USE OF SOLAR
ENERGY
NOT ONLY IS THE SUN ENERGY
FREE, CLEAN, LIMITLESS, EFFICIENT,
CHEAP, SAVES YOU MONEY, CAN EARN
YOU MONEY, PERFECT FOR OUR OVER
7,107 ISLANDS (NO NEED FOR
SUBMARINE LINES), REDUCES OUR
DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN FUEL,
AMONG OTHERS,
IT ALSO HELPS REDUCE GREENHOUSE

3.1 Expand Use of Shuttle

EVs/ Electric Cars/
Motorbikes

3.2 Encourage SMEs Powered

by Solar (c/o DTI)

SOME SAMPLES HOME

BASED OR BACKYARD
ENTERPRISES THAT CAN BE
RUN FROM SOLAR
ROOFTOPS:
1) ICE MAKING
2) ICE-CREAM MAKING
3) MEAT FOOD PROCESSING (W/
FREEZER)
4) LAUNDRY SERVICES

3.3 Negotiate for Use of

Solar Energy to Power Mass
Transits/LRTs/MRTs
The excess energy exported to
the grid by SOLAR SYSTEMS
could be used to subsidize the
power needs of our mass transit
systems. Or solar energy
exporters could be given credits
on their beep cards.

4.0 DEVELOP OTHER

RENEWABLE ENERGY
SYSTEMS
4.1 Develop Ocean Wave/
Tidal Wave Power

5.0 STUDY THE ADOPTION

OF AN OIL PRICE
STABILIZATION FUND
