Abstract: The Philippines is currently addressing its growing concerns on how to meet its ballooning energy demand in parallel on having a good energy mix in terms of its renewable and non-renewable resources. As of 2016, according to the Department of Energy (DOE) of the country, roughly 76% of the Philippines’ sources of energy came from fossil fuels and the remaining percent was mainly attributable to the renewables. Interestingly, ocean energy is still not part of the current energy mix.
