OTEC Country Notes

Philippines
The aim of the New and Renewable Energy Program (NRE) of the Department of Energy (DOE) is to accelerate the development, promotion and commercialisation of new and renewable energy systems. The Philippines is well-endowed with a range of renewable energies and the Philippine Energy Plan (2005-2014) plans to utilise them in an effort to reduce fossil fuel consumption. To this end the DOE working with Japanese scientists has identified sixteen areas that could be suitable for the development of OTEC systems.
