A GROUP of biomass power plant developers is soliciting support from the Department of Energy (DoE) not to further decrease rates under feed-in tariff (FiT), a scheme that provides incentives to renewable energy (RE) developers in the Philippines.

In a letter dated Dec. 16, 2019, Biomass Renewable Energy Alliance Inc. (BREA) President Don Mario Dia asked the National Renewable Energy Board’s (NREB) assistance to ensure “fixed tariff” or “guaranteed fixed price” under the FiT program.
