Coal Refinancing in the Philippines
The primary barrier to closing coal plants in many markets is the presence of long-term supply agreements, coupled with a lack of open data on the financial implications of these agreements.
TransitionZero’s Coal Asset Transition (CAT) tool for the Philippines covers all 58 of the countries’ coal units, backed by data from over 200 PSAs covering over 65% of generation from 2020 to 2023. CAT offers comprehensive asset-level insights into the Philippine coal fleet, including estimates on the cost of abatement and the cost of buying out remaining power supply agreements for each plant.
