The clean energy transition remains a key priority for the Philippines, reflecting the country’s strong commitment to sustainability and energy security. According to the 2024 Climatescope Report by BloombergNEF, the Philippines was ranked as the second most attractiv emerging market for renewable energy investments. To build on this momentum, the Philippine Department of Energy (DOE) has set an ambitious target of achieving 35% renewable energy in the power mix by 2030, as part of its long-term goal to reach 50% by 2040.
In a bid to further boost investment, the government has introduced significant policy reforms, such as allowing full foreign ownership of renewable energy projects. With this change, foreign investors can now hold 100 percent equity in the exploration, development, and utilization of solar, wind, hydro, and ocean or tidal energy resources. The reform is a major step forward as the Philippines seeks to attract more foreign capital and technical expertise to meet its long-term climate targets.
