Renewable Energy Documentation in the Philippines

Renewable energy is starting to gain traction in the Philippines. It shows that there are no major economic or technical barriers for the country to take a bold step towards a just transition to 100% renewable energy.
Greenpeace documented the renewable energy power plants with the hope to have among Filipinos the understanding and proof of concept that renewable energy (RE) is something that is both economically and technologically feasible in the country and that it makes good business sense to invest in renewable energy, meeting the goals of climate-smart economic growth, sustainable development, and environmental protection.
Greenpeace is asking the government to act and have a political will to make the change.
