MANILA, Philippines--The Department of Energy may award more renewable energy service contracts for biomass and hydropower sources to 32 firms, should these companies’ proposals pass government evaluation. Documents from the DOE identified the companies engaged in biomass projects as Bacavalley Energy Inc.; Basecom Inc.; Bataan 2020; Busco Sugar Milling Co.; Capiz Sugar Central; Central Azucarera de Don Pedro; Central Azucarera de La Carlota; Central Azucarera De Tarlac; Cotabato Sugar; Davao Sugar Corp.; First Farmers Holding Corp.; Hawaiian Philippines Co.; Lopez Sugar Corp.; Sagay Central Inc.; Sweet Crystal Integrated Sugar Mill Corp. and Victorias Milling Co. Based on their submissions, these companies target to produce or are producing a combined 201.6 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy from biomass.
In the meantime, companies engaged in hydropower projects that were applying for service contracts included: Antique Electric Cooperative Inc.; Conal Holdings Corp.; Cordillera Hydroelectric Power Corp.; First Gen Prime Energy Corp.; Hedcor Tamugan Inc.; Kalinga Hydropower Inc.; Langogan Holdings Corp.
Misamis Oriental II Electric Cooperative Inc.; Oriental Energy and Power Generation Corp.; PhilCarbon Inc.; Renouvel Development Corp.; SKI Mini Hydro Corp.; Smith Bell Mini-Hydro Corp.; SN Aboitiz Power-Magat Inc.; SN Aboitiz Power-Benguet Inc., and Vivant Corp.
These hydropower projects—which are either operating commercially or are still on the drawing board, have a combined capacity of over 900 MW.
When a project is given a renewable energy service contract, the proponent can avail itself of fiscal and non-fiscal incentives.
Does anyone know how to bid for these contracts
