Why is baseload power important in Cebu?

Baseload power: The foundation of energy reliability For Cebu to sustain its economic momentum, a robust and stable energy grid is indispensable. Baseload power sources, including coal-fired and geothermal power plants, contribute to this stability by providing continuous electricity regardless of demand fluctuations.

How can Cebu achieve its long-term economic ambitions?

Stakeholders are in agreement: by proactively building a future-ready energy framework – one that not only ensures energy abundance but fosters a stable and competitive energy landscape – Cebu can achieve its long-term economic ambitions.

Why should Cebu invest in its energy infrastructure?

As Cebu continues to solidify its position as the region’s leading economic hub, the reliability and resilience of its energy infrastructure will determine its ability to attract investment, sustain industries, and better serve its citizens.

Why is Energy Independence important in Cebu?

The governor emphasized the need for Cebu to generate power capacity in-island instead of being “at the mercy” of power imports from neighboring provinces. Currently, Cebu imports about 60% of its energy needs from neighboring islands. Energy independence is vital to ensuring Cebu remains a strong and competitive investment destination.
