The Philippines Department of Energy plans to auction an additional 25 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2035 under its Green Energy Auction programme with four auction rounds scheduled during 2026-27.
The plan was released during the 2026 Renewable Energy Investment Forum and follows the GEA-4 round which awarded 10.2 GW across solar, wind and storage, including 4.1 GW of ground-mounted solar and 2.2 GW of floating solar. GEA-5 focused on offshore wind and was launched in November 2025, while GEA-6 expected in the first quarter of 2026 will prioritise floating solar and wind, including unsubscribed capacity from GEA-4. GEA-7 will focus on rooftop solar in Visayas and Mindanao and solar-plus-storage in Mindanao, targeting 55 MW of rooftop solar in Visayas, 30 MW in Mindanao and 3.2 GW of solar-plus-storage across Visayas, Mindanao and Luzon by 2028.
