Geothermal power in the Philippines is the country's second largest source of renewable energy, and the fifth largest source of energy overall. Among sources of renewable energy, it is second only to hydroelectric power, although both sources are surpassed by the amount of energy drawn from coal, oil, and natural gas in that order.
geothermal power plants stood at 1,918 MWe (Figure 1) and is about 8% of the country’s total capacity of 23,815 MWe in 2018. The latest resources estimation for geothermal energy potential in the country is 4,064 MW, of which about 50% has been developed.
