Five Takeaways: Governing Rules on DERs
The first virtual dialogue for 2023 focused on the Governing Rules on Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC), through its Resolution No. 11 series of 2022, adopted the DER Rules on 19 October 2022. DERs are power sources that are connected to an existing distribution or grid electrical system. The Rules allow electricity end-users with renewable energy systems for own use, to export their excess electricity to their distribution utilities in exchange for credits.
A Creative Call for Urgent Action in the Energy Sector
The paper published in partnership with the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung Philippines, looks into the Philippine Energy Plan 2020-2040 and how it fairs with the goal of limiting global temperature increase to 1.5° and below and proposed recommendations on how the country’s power and electricity sector can be aligned to this climate goal. CREST released this infographic to visually summarize the content of the paper.
