It also notes how renewable energy projects may be carried out under the framework of the Public-Private Partnership Code.
In addition, the report explores compliance pitfalls for renewable energy developers and typical dispute resolution provisions under project agreements. It also highlights emerging developments in the adaption of distributed energy resources, including rooftop solar systems, battery energy storage, and hybrid systems. The report likewise looks into how the Philippines’ climate change goals and international commitments are affecting domestic renewable energy policy.
