As of 2017, the International Renewable Energy Agency estimates the Philippines' net installed geothermal energy capacity to at 1.9 gigawatts (GW)—out of the global geothermal installed capacity of 12.7 GW ranking behind the United States (2.5 GW) and ahead of Indonesia (1.5 GW). [10]
The Philippines utilizes renewable energy sources including hydropower, geothermal and solar energy, wind power and biomass resources. [citation needed] In 2013, these sources contributed 19,903 GWh of electrical energy, representing 26.44 percent of the country's electricity needs. [1]
The Philippines is the world's second largest generator of geothermal energy and was the first Southeast Asian nation to invest in large-scale solar and wind technologies. [31] The country's geographic location in the Pacific makes it a good potential for renewable energy generation with 76.6 GW wind, 10 GW hydropower, 15828 MW solar, 500 MW ...
Estimates suggest that superhot rock geothermal could supply electricity at costs between $20 and $46 per megawatt-hour, comparing favorably with natural gas, wind, and solar power, currently at ...

The Tongonan Geothermal Power Station [1] is a 232.5 MW geothermal power plant or an earth steam turbined electric generator—the world's largest geothermal power plant under one roof located in Tongonan, Kananga, Leyte, Philippines. The power plant is one of four operating in the Leyte Geothermal Production Field. [1]
The average cost to install a gas furnace and air conditioner is $14,300, according to Electric Services director Donald Kom, while the average geothermal well costs $30,771 to install.
It was rated at 670 kW and ran for an unknown number of years, proving the concept of binary cycle geothermal power plants. [4] As of December 2014, there were 203 binary cycle geothermal power plants across 15 countries worldwide, representing 35% of all geothermal power plants, but only generating 10.4% of total geothermal power (about 1250 ...
