Philippines
The power sector in the Philippines is dominated by coal, which is responsible for almost 60% of power generation. Together with its second largest power source — natural gas (18%) — and oil (1.5%), fossil fuels make up more than three quarters of the Philippines’ power supply. Established renewable energy sources such as geothermal (10%) and hydro (9%) also generated a relevant share of the country’s electricity in 2021. The shares of solar and wind power are increasing but are still small at 1.4% and 1.2% respectively.
Three-quarters of electricity consumption is distributed across the three main demand sectors: households (33%), industry sector (26%) and services (20%).
