It is well-established that non-renewable energy sources adversely affect the environment and human health. Nonetheless, the Philippines continues utilizing this energy source as it is more accessible than the alternatives. Non-renewables, especially coal, are cheap; there is ease and familiarity with non-renewables and a lack of knowledge and experience in utilizing renewable energy. However, as the consumption of this energy source grew, the challenge involving the inevitable depletion of this resource arose. In response to this problem, the Philippine government created the National Renewable Energy Program (NREP), which aims for 15.3 gigawatts of renewable power capacity by 2030. Despite this, coal remained the highest power share, and renewable energy was ignored. Although there are regions in the Philippines with existing renewable energy projects, it was mostly hydropower and solar power. Moreover, the current projects do not hit the target capacity stated in the NREP. There are still various renewable energy sources that could be utilized. Aside from solar power and hydropower, there is potential for biomass, wind, and geothermal energy utilization. This study has been conducted to evaluate the existing and the possible renewable energy sources in Northern Mindanao, Philippines (Region 10), and assess the resources’ potential.
