The Philippine government is preparing a new procurement round under its Green Energy Auction program targeting agrisolar and aquasolar projects. The Department of Energy and Department of Agriculture have reviewed a draft MoU for the auction, which is scheduled as GEA-9, with official terms of reference targeted for publication in Q4 2026. The DOE said agrisolar and aquasolar installations can optimize abandoned, underdeveloped and underutilized land and water resources while supporting food security and rural livelihoods. The Philippines previously announced plans to hold GEA-6 to GEA-9 over the next two years as part of a wider target to auction 25GW of renewables by 2035.
