What we are doing
Currently, imported coal constitutes almost half of the Philippine energy generation mix. The country is also facing costly electricity generation and electricity transmission-distribution losses, thus threatening energy security. The Philippine Energy Plan (PEP) calls for a dynamic and responsive energy mix, enhanced energy access, and cleaner and local energy sources.
To support the implementation of energy interventions, it is important to have evidence-based decision making coupled with empowered stakeholders and policymakers. The local energy plan is envisioned to include opportunities for clean energy, energy efficiency, and energy access.

What we are achieving
ICLEI supports the Clean Energy Living Laboratories (CELLs) and the Project Management Office, especially on local government engagement. ICLEI works with demonstration cities to mainstream a local energy plan and assists the CELLs in developing a curriculum for an executive education program targeting policymakers and stakeholders and support advocacy activities.
ICLEI facilitates City-to-City Exchange activities, conducting workshops to capacitate selected demonstration cities, and linking the cities to possible funding sources. The workshops are aimed to help the demonstration cities in actualizing their local energy plans. ASEP-CELLs’ emphasis on advocating, educating and supporting evidence-based policies and programs is expected to improve the learning conditions and experiences among stakeholders and champions.
