The Department of Energy (DOE) has included two more renewable energy (RE) firms in its Green Energy Option Program (GEOP) list.
Shell Energy Philippines Inc. and Green Core Geothermal Inc. are now qualified under the GEOP.
The GEOP is a voluntary policy mechanism that allows users consuming at least 100 kilowatts of power to source their supply from qualified retail energy suppliers that generate electricity from renewables.
There are now a total of 12 RE firms in the GEOP list. The others are Citicore Energy Solutions Inc., Aboitiz Energy Solutions Inc., Prism Energy Inc., Adventenergy Inc., Bacman Geothermal Inc., First Gen Energy Solutions Inc., SN Aboitiz Power-Magat Inc., SN Aboitiz Power-Res Inc., AC Energy Philippines Inc., and Sparc-Solar Powered Agri-Rural Communities Corp. “The DOE is pushing for the Green Energy Option Program (GEOP), where clean energy advocates can source their clean power requirements through our Retail Electricity Suppliers,” Energy Secretary Alfonso G. Cusi said.
