The Phillipines is about to unveil its first major solar facility that feeds into the power grid.
Construction on the 22 MW plant in Negros Occidental began in August 2013, with the facility now awaiting its final sign-off from the Energy Regulatory Commission before going into operation. It will begin by offering 13 MW to the power grid at feed-in tariff rates, with the second phase of the project set to begin in June.

Heavy financial incentives made the building of the plant possible, with funding from European fund manager Thomas Lloyd Group. Granted tax incentives included a seven-year income tax holiday and duty-free importation of renewable energy machinery, equipment, and materials for the first decade. Conergy AG supplied 22 solar power inverters and 88 000 modules for useage in the plant.
