Alternative Energy Projects

Clenergen and National Power Corporation (NPC) have signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) to conduct feasibility studies in five different of-grid/"missionary" areas in the Philippines. The MOA makes provision for the installation of 1-2 MW/h pilot biomass power-plants in these off-grid areas (islands), using gasification technology

The first study was Romblon Islands (a province 370km south of Manila) was completed at the end of May 2010 and a decision by NPC is pending. The objective is to provide off grid electricity to many of the 7000 Philippine islands that suffer from acute electricity shortages.
