Report: RE endangers viability of LNG projects on May 6, 2021 at 8:29 pm
Around $13.6 billion (about Php654 billion) worth of liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects could be stranded due to the growth of renewable energy (RE) in the Philippines, according to a new report by the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA).
The report cited the government’s “rapid buildout of infrastructure” ahead of the depletion of the Malampaya gas field’s resources.
“As renewables prices continue to drop and global LNG markets tighten to increase fuel costs, LNG-related investments will become increasingly uncompetitive in the Philippines market, especially as smaller electricity consumers become eligible to choose their retail suppliers,” IEEFA Energy Finance analyst Sam Reynolds said in a statement.

NEARLY $14-billion worth of planned liquified natural gas (LNG) import infrastructure in the Philippines may be at risk of becoming stranded assets as the cost of renewable power generation drops, according to the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA).
“All 10.9 GW (gigawatts) of LNG-fired power capacity in the current pipeline with an estimated value of $13.6 billion in total investment is at risk of being stranded as the market adapts to lower cost renewable power generation,” IEEFA, an organization that examines energy markets, trends and policies, said in a report.
