Due to failure to fulfill energy commitments, Solar Philippines’ 21 contracts with government will be terminated

Have you ever heard of a corporation called Solar Philippines? That company boasted being the largest solar company in Southeast Asia and the national government awarded them with lots of contracts years ago. The results, however, are disastrous as Solar Philippines failed to fulfill the energy commitments which compelled the government to initiate moves to discontinue 21 of the 42 contracts, according to a GMA Network news report.  

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the GMA News report. Some parts in boldface…

In my honest opinion in relation to this development, renewable energy sources like solar and wind are truly unreliable. On the part of Solar Philippines (founded in 2013), generating 174.41 megawatts instead of the required 10,000 megawatts over the years is shocking. That being said, initiating moves to discontinue the 21 contracts with Solar Philippines makes a lot of sense.

Again, in my own view, the government should stop focusing so much on renewable energy and focus more on nuclear power to ensure clean and abundant energy for the entire nation as the energy needs of the people and businesses will only keep on growing. Solar power cannot be relied on as the sun does not shine brightly 365 days per year nor can the power collected through solar panels be enough to meet the needs to the nation.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you think it is right for the government to move to terminate the 21 contracts with Solar Philippines? Are you convinced that solar power is not the solution for the nation’s energy requirements? What excuse can Solar Philippines come up with to convince the government to retain the 21 contracts?

US-Philippines Civil Nuclear Cooperation Agreement (123 Agreement) enters into force

The Philippines moved some steps forward into a nuclear-powered future as the United States-Philippines Civil Nuclear Cooperation Agreement (also referred to as the 123 Agreement) came into force recently, according to a Philippine News Agency (PNA) news article. This means that the legal framework for potential nuclear projects with American providers has been laid down. It is recalled that the 123 Agreement has been progressing since last year.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from PNA news article. Some parts in boldface…

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you think that nuclear power will be more beneficial for the Filipino people and the national economy than solar and wind power? Are you aware that solar and wind power will cost too much money to create abundant energy for the Philippines?
