Highlights
- The country targets a share of 35% of renewables in the power mix and a 75% reduction of its GHG emissions in 2030.
- PEP 2023-2050 targets 4.5 GW of nuclear by 2050, with one plant operational in 2032.
- More than 90% of the electricity generation comes from IPPs. EDC is the world's largest geothermal company.
- Prime Infra acquired 100% ownership of the Malampaya gas field through its subsidiaries in 2022.
- Thermal energy dominates the power mix (79%), including 62% from coal and 14% from gas.
- Coal imports have tripled since 2010.
- Gas production has dropped by 43% since 2019.
- Fuel and electricity prices decreased in 2023 after 3 years of continued increase.
- Electricity prices are amongst the highest in Asean.
- Per capita energy consumption is 2 times lower than the ASEAN average.
- Coal and oil represent 65% of total energy consumption.
- Very rapid growth in energy demand is expected by 2040 (around 6%/year).
- Despite the moratorium on new coal plants, the country plans 2.3 GW to come online by 2028, and over 6 GW will operate for 30 years.
- Around US$80bn in investment are required between 2024 and 2028 to provide reliable and resilient energy supply.
Institutions & Energy Policy
The Department of Energy (DOE) is in charge of the energy sector. The DOE has six bureaus: Energy Policy and Planning Bureau (EPPB), Energy Resources Development Bureau (ERDB), Electric Power Industry Management Bureau (EPIMB), Oil Industry Management Bureau (OIMB), Renewable Energy Management Bureau (REMB), and Energy Utilization and Management Bureau (EUMB).
Energy Companies
Gas:
In 2022, Prime Infra (Prime Infrastructure Capital), through its subsidiaries, acquired 100% ownership of the Malampaya gas field. This includes Shell's 45% and UC38's 45% stake, which were both sold to Prime Infra, making Prime Infra the majority operator through its subsidiary PNOC, which retained its 10% stake.
Energy Supply
Gas:
The production of gas has dropped by 43% since 2019, reaching 2.6 bcm in 2022; it started in 2002 with the commissioning of the Malampaya field. It was stable between 2011 and 2019 at around 4 bcm. The gas field is estimated to run dry by 2027 (remaining reserves estimated by DOE at 4 bcm). It supplies five power plants in Luzon: Ilijan, Sta. Rita, San Lorenzo, Avion, and San Gabriel.
Energy Prices
Electricity:
In 2023, the average price of electricity for households dropped by 16% to US$18.9c/kWh. Previously, it had been increasing since 2020 (+17%/year). The price was over three times higher than in Malaysia and nearly the double that in Thailand in 2022.

Energy Consumption
Per capita energy consumption is 0.57 toe, including 828 kWh of electricity (2023). These levels are two times lower than the ASEAN average (2023 levels).
Total energy consumption has been increasing by 3.5%/year since 2020, reaching 66 Mtoe in 2023, after a 5.5% drop in 2020. Previously, it had been increasing by 4.5%/year since 2009, reaching 61 Mtoe in 2019.
Issues & Prospects
According to the Energy demand and supply outlook included in the PEP 2020-2040, final energy consumption will increase 3-fold by 2040 from 2020 (5.8%/year), driven by the transport and industry sectors.
