20 Overview of Philippines Energy Industry Milestones Completed experience Until 2016, total installed capacity 21GW which 68% comes from thermal power; total power generation 91TWh which 76% comes from thermal power. Renewable energy is 32% of total installed capacity and 24% of total power generation. The current project pipeline is heavily dominated by new coal power plant investments. If no action is taken, GHG (Green House Gas) emissions are expected to 4 times until Installed Capacity 2016 Power Generation 16% 17% 21GW 32% Coal Oil-Based Natural Gas 22% 6% 91TWh 24% Coal Oil-Based Natural Gas 35% Renewable Energy 48% Renewable Energy Sources: Philippines Department of energy 2016 Power Statistic Data 19

21 Renewable Energy Development in Philippines Milestones Completed experience n Incentives for renewable energy investors Fiscal incentives to RE developers: 1. Income Tax Holiday (ITH): income taxes free for the first 7 years 2. Ten percent corporate tax rate: 10% after seven years of the ITH. 3. Ten year duty-free importation of RE machinery, equipment and materials 4. Zero percent value-added tax (VAT) rate 5. Special realty tax rates on equipment and machinery 6. Tax exemption of carbon credits 7. Tax credit on domestic capital equipment and services n Feed-in Tariff (FiT) Policy for Solar energy The ERC (Energy Regulatory Commission), on July 12, 2010, promulgated ERC Resolution No. 16, series of 2010, entitled Resolution Adopting the Feed-In Tariff Rules, which became effective on August 12, On July 23, 2012, first round FiT rate of Solar is PhP9.68/kWh with 50MW quota. On March 15, 2016, second round FiT rate of Solar is PhP8.69/kWh with 500MW. Tariff rates are set by First Come First Serve base. All investors are waiting for the third round FiT program.

22 Renewable Energy Development in Philippines Milestones Completed experience n Opportunities of PPA with Local DU Besides FiT solar projects, foreign investors are looking for opportunities of PPA in Philippines solar market. n PPA vs. FiT A PPA is a bilateral agreement between a Solar power plant investor and a Distribution Utility (DU, local electricity company) for the purchase and supply of power. ERC need to review and approve the rate of PPAs according to the Republic Act No. 9136, entitled Electric Power Industry Reform Act of 2001 (EPIRA) Sources: GIZ 2014 Solar PV Guidebook Philippines 21

23 Renewable Energy Development in Philippines Milestones Completed experience n Expectation to Philippines Solar investment environment A more transparent and simpler permitting process - Developers of utility scale RE projects in the Philippines must currently undergo up to 165 individual administrative steps in order to accomplish all the necessary permits prior to starting construction of their RE facility. Next round of FiT program - Investors are looking for next round of FiT program. - Suggest to optimize the existing FiT schemes and amend first come first serve policy. Support Schemes for PPA Project - Establish SOP to expedite ERC review and approval process for PPA project. 22

25 Conclusion To match Government s 20GW target by 2025, there will be 2GW capacity total projects in solar energy market per year in average. In Taiwan solar market, J&V company has strong local relationship to secure projects and is familiar with all permitting process which is the best partner for local and international investors to operate two major business model and provide all relative services. J&V is interested in Philippines solar market and has a PPA project in Mindanao which just received the approval from ERC. Though the ERC review time is over half-year, J&V is still confident in Philippines solar market and looking for more investment opportunities and strong local partners. 24
