At the end of the FUSED Program by 2030, it is expected to have at least funded Php 40 Billion of the estimated investment requirement for power generation and distribution in the Philippine Energy Plan 2012-2030. Specific Development Objectives: 1.
The power sector in the Philippines accounts for 58% of the country’s overall carbon emissions and will be an important driver of domestic emission reduction efforts to meet national climate and energy targets. Renewables, such as offshore wind, are expected to play a key role in the transition toward a low-carbon energy mix.
Companies can apply for loans at select Philippine banks through the SEF Program, which allows them to invest in technologies that make energy generation, distribution and use more efficient. These technologies can reduce a company’s operating and energy expenses by at least 30 per cent and cut CO2 emissions by at least 25,000 tonnes each year.
From 2021 to 2023, local banks financed USD 1.2 billion for gas projects, up from only USD 296.5 million in funding from 2009 to 2020. Gas financing will likely escalate with both local and international banks keen to enter the sector, since the Philippines is building a major LNG import terminal and gas-to-power project.
