New Industrial Policy &

transition to a low carbon economy • Along with skills, materials, capital and digital technology;

manufacturing requires reliable supply of energy at affordable prices – Wafer fabrication, textile, iron & steel not pursued due to high power

costs

– High power costs being cited as major factor affecting competitiveness

• Gradual shift to green manufacturingo Improvements in the energy efficiency of manufacturing

o Replacement of fossil fuels with renewable energy sources

• Green processes, practices, & productso Energy-efficient technologies

o Green goods & services

o Clean energy technologies: resource recovery and reuse, renewable feedstocks, electricity storage, fuel cells, renewable energy (solar, wind, geothermal, bioenergy, hydro), nuclear fission and fusion, advanced vehicles

• Enabling environment for the adoption of energy efficiency measures: laws, regulations, incentives, finance, education &training

Page 19: Competitive and Innovative Industries in a Low Carbon … · Competitive and Innovative Industries in a Low Carbon Economy Rafaelita M. Aldaba Department of Trade and Industry- Board

Greening the Industry Roadmaps

• Integrated green policies in 6 industry roadmaps ( through

GIZ support)

Industry Green Measures: Energy Efficiency

Auto Resource efficiency strategy – reduce energy consumption

Pulp & Paper

25% of production costs are energy-related, industry needs to invest in new plants & to retrofit existing plants

Plastic With rising energy costs, the industry’s major focus is on process optimization & technological innovation to reduce production costs & reduce emissions; emphasis on the implementation of sustainable technologies for energy generation, storage & recovery

Housing Green housing schemes

Furniture Optimized process management & new technologies to reduce cost

Copper Green Manufacturing Zone in Leyte: resource efficiency in energy, materials, water, & transportation, cleaner production, use of RE

Page 20: Competitive and Innovative Industries in a Low Carbon … · Competitive and Innovative Industries in a Low Carbon Economy Rafaelita M. Aldaba Department of Trade and Industry- Board

Sustainable energy for industry development

Climate Incentives for Manufacturing

• Focus on energy efficiency in manufacturing: cement, iron & steel, pulp & paper, chemicals

• CLIMA: fiscal incentives that are targeted, time bound, & performance-based

• BOI Incentives: Income tax holiday & duty free importation of capital equipment depending on magnitude of energy saving from project

• Help achieve PH NDC commitment
