Statistical Indicators on Philippine Development 2006 

Chapter on Power Sector Reforms

Goal: Implement critical and strategic energy infrastructure to
promote energy independence and strive to reduce electricity rates

The power sector reforms implemented need to be further pursued and imposed. The modest increase in geothermal capacity was compensated by the upswing in natural gas and hydropower plants. The target number of category A+ and A of electric cooperatives has already been surpassed in 2005. However, further reduction in distribution system loss still needs to be attained.

Strategy/Target Indicator Accomplishments versus Targets Performance
Increase geothermal capacity and new oil and gas discoveries

Lower the distribution system loss to 13% in 2005 and to a single digit system loss by 2010 (Electric Cooperatives)
