Technical FAQs 4

Is distributed energy system a viable option in the Philippines?

These are just some challenges that have prompted the Philippines to start exploring distributed energy system (DES) as a viable option to satisfy immediate electricity demands.

Why is energy storage important in the Philippines?

Energy storage is all about saving energy for later use. It’s super important because it helps balance the supply and demand of electricity, makes it easier to use renewable energy sources, and makes the power grid more reliable. What types of batteries are commonly used for energy storage in the Philippines?

Can distributed generation improve energy security in the Philippines?

The introduction of generating power in the form of distributed generation can provide an enhanced energy security. The Philippine DOE estimated that 3.18% of the country’s overall power generation in 2015 came from embedded generation in on-grid areas and economic zones (Table 5.2).

What are battery storage systems in the Philippines?

Battery Storage Systems Batteries are the most common way to store energy in the Philippines. These systems can save extra energy that’s made during times when there’s a lot of production and release it when there’s high demand. There are different types of batteries being tested, including:
