The Philippine Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) approved on July 27 2012 the feed-in tariffs for solar, wind, biomass and hydropower projects. The approved tariffs are: P9.68 ($0.23) per kWh for solar, P8.53 per kWh for wind, P6.63 per kWh for biomass and P5.90 per kWh for run-of-river hydro. The ERC deferred fixing the FIT for ocean thermal energy conversion pending further study. In arriving at these tariffs, the ERC accepted the methodology used by the National Renewable Energy Board (NREB) and took into account, among other things, the cost of construction and operation of the representative plants for each renewable energy technology, the generation output or capacity factors of these plants and the reasonable return on investment to be granted the renewable energy developers. However, the approved feed-in tariffs are lower than what was proposed by the NREB, which were: P17.95 per kWh for solar, P10.37 per kWh for wind, P7.00 per kWh for biomass and P6.15 per kWh for run-of-river hydro.
