Renewable Energy Bill in the Philippines moves forward
On 28 February over 140,000 signatures, including those of more than 10,000 Passport activists, were presented to the Committee on Energy in the House of Representatives.
The signatures were presented in a symbolic ballot box with the message 'Boto ng Bayan para sa RE Bill’ which means ‘The People's Vote for the RE Bill'.
The subsequent adoption of the committee's report is a major achievement in the effort to pass the bill and for the campaign for clean energy in the Philippines.
This landmark legislation will enable the Philippines to choose clean energy for its energy security and a cleaner environment.
The PowerSwitch! campaign in the Philippines will continue monitoring the development of the bill and gather more signatures to show the strength of popular support for renewable energy.
Thank you for your support.
With your help, we are making a difference.
