The Iloilo City Government, with technical assistance from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) – Energy Secure Philippines, is developing its Local Energy Plan (LEP) through a training workshop held at City Hall Penthouse Auditorium recently.
Participants from key city departments and offices, Department of Energy, and stakeholders from the energy sector joined the one-day activity.
The LEP is the localized version of the Philippine Energy Plan. It will look at the totality of energy needs of the local government, plan for the efficient use of energy resources, and advance economic growth while protecting the environment among others.
With this development, Iloilo City will be better prepared to address the growing energy demands alongside its inevitable economic progress.Iloilo City PIO
