Aiming to help further the renewable energy transition in the Philippines, ICLEI Southeast Asia is supporting the 10-Million Solar Rooftops Challenge, a campaign which seeks to establish 10-million solar rooftop photovoltaic (PV) systems across the island nation through multi-sectoral advocacy and cooperation.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Organized by the Center for Energy, Ecology, and Development (CEED)<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, a Philippine think-do organization, the challenge encourages individuals, households, businesses, government bodies, organizations, schools, establishments, churches, offices, and local and national government units and agencies to support the achievement of the 10-million target through: spreading word of the campaign, promoting the possibilities of distributed renewable energy in general and solar rooftop PV in particular; committing to invest in and installing their own solar rooftop PV systems; or implementing programs, projects, and activities for solar rooftop PV facilities within their scope of influence.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Highlighting the importance of the campaign, CEED stated \u201cWith an estimated capacity of 1kW per solar rooftop, meeting the 10-million roofs goal would result in a massive total potential of 10GW, all directly in our homes and establishments.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The 10-Million Solar Rooftops Challenge aims to highlight the importance of a just renewable energy transition, recognize the impact of ongoing and upcoming solarization activities across the country, and raise awareness on the challenges and opportunities for solarization in the Philippines.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The 10-Million Solar Rooftops Challenge is set to officially launch on 16 July 2024.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ICLEI Southeast Asia has recently and is currently undertaking various engagements related to the renewable energy transition, including developing the renewable energy roadmaps of <\/span>Eastern Samar<\/strong><\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Albay Province<\/strong><\/span><\/a> in the Philippines; and <\/span>West Nusa Tenggara<\/strong><\/span><\/a>,<\/strong><\/span> Indonesia. Through the <\/span>RENEW-SEA<\/strong><\/span><\/a> project, ICLEI Southeast Asia is also currently supporting awareness-raising, outreach, and capacity building to spur local and regional governments in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand to lead the renewables-based transition in their communities.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
