Building tomorrow’s power grid (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After 25 years, the Electric Power Industry Reform Act (EPIRA) of 2001is back in the spotlight. The Philippines’ top energy leaders convened at a recent roundtable to judge EPIRA’s record after a quarter of a century. The consensus was: EPIRA delivered on its promise. It pulled the country out of the power crisis that made it necessary in the first place. But the energy landscape of 2001 is not the one we face today.
