Partnership Program (PEPP)Partnership Program (PEPP)
•Supports industry initiatives to improve their
environmental performance thru the adoption of
pollution prevention and cleaner production
processes.
•Provides a package of incentives and reward
mechanisms to industries that include regulatory
privileges and assistance

7. Industrial Eco-watch System
•Program that rates industries' environmental
performance in color codes: from gold (the
best performance), silver, green, blue, red
and black (the poorest).

8. Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)
•CDM under the Kyoto Protocol, targets
cutbacks in carbon dioxide emissions and
other greenhouse gases into the
atmosphere;
•Philippines has already 57 CDM projects
registered with the United Nations CDM
Board, ranking the country the 7th in the
world in terms of the number of CDM
projects.

promotes the reduction of pollution through
effective waste and emission management and
the efficient use of raw materials, fuels and other
utilities;

15. Water Recycling

16. Water Recycling
A manufacturing company in Metro Manila that
produces oral care, personal care and household
products
• uses recycled water coming from its reverse
osmosis water treatment facility.
• recycled waters are used in their vacuum
pumps and to cool down some equipment used in
their operation.
• company saves around 20 cubic meters of
water per day from this environment-friendly
practice.

17. Waste to Energy
only P270,000.00

18. Methane Recovery

19. • Cement companies in the Philippines uses new
• forms of selected and pre-qualified waste
• material and by-products from other industries
• as either alternative fuel or alternative raw
• material.
• Co-processing of industrial and residual wastes
• to derive thermal energy in cement clinker
• production helps decrease the use of fossil
• fuel and carbon dioxide emissions.
Co-generation

20. Building Efficiency
Buildings in the country are getting in the green
bandwagon, with the Philippine Green Building Council
pushing for the adoption of a Green Rating System,
particularly as buildings are reported to account for an
estimated 40% of total greenhouse gas emissions.
A semi-conductor company in the Cordillera
Autonomous Region has the first building in the
Philippines to gain LEED (Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design) certification. The company’s
building was built with respect to the sun’s path to
minimize unwanted heat gain and to maximize
natural daylighting.

21. • Sustainable energy savings programs
•
–- building management systems: replacement of lightings
– and chillers
(company to save around 4,920,867 kw-hrs of electricity
or 2,952,520.20 kgs. Equivalent reduction of CO2
emission)
–- Brewery in Mandaue City energy conservation efforts:
•reduction of light use and aircon
•replacement of incandescent bulbs with energy-
saving bulbs
•optimized ammonia compressors which contributes
to 40% of the plant’s energy consumption.
(Total energy conservation efforts led to savings of 8% for
power and water alone or over Php18million in generated
savings.)
