PEP 2023-2050 Vol. I — Section D (Energy Demand and Supply Outlook)

PDF pages: 72–95 (internal doc pages 63–86) Chapter heading: Chapter II — Energy Demand and Supply Outlook


Key Takeaways

  1. REF TFEC doubles by 2050: 35.9 MTOE → 90.6 MTOE (+3.4%/yr); industry is fastest-growing sector (+4.94%/yr).
  2. Electricity is the structural winner: Share rises from 21.9% to 38.7% of TFEC by 2050 across all sectors.
  3. LNG is the critical bridge fuel: Natural gas grows from 2.6 to 24.8 MTOE TPES (+8.37%/yr) as Malampaya depletes; 7 LNG projects (22 MTPA) planned.
  4. Coal generation collapses in share, not volume: 59.6% → 14.1% of power mix; absolute output barely changes (66.4 → 63.8 TWh).
  5. Natural gas becomes the largest power source by 2050 under REF: 35.0% (158.8 TWh), replacing coal as baseload.
  6. Self-sufficiency worsens even under REF: 49.4% → 38.9% by 2050; net imports nearly triple to 85.8 MTOE.
  7. BESS requirement reaches 1,021 GWh (REF) / 22 GW (CES-1) by 2050 — essential for VRE integration.
  8. Solar dominates new build: 56.5 GW installed by 2050 (37.4% of capacity); wind at 32.3 GW (21.4%).
  9. GHG doubles under REF: 135.7 → 270.1 MtCO₂e; gas GHG grows fastest (+8.4%/yr due to LNG scale-up).
  10. CES saves 7.7 MTOE TFEC and 13.2 MTOE TPES vs REF by 2050 through demand-side efficiency and supply substitution (OSW + nuclear displaces LNG).
  11. 100% household electrification target: 2026 under PEP (vs PDP 2023-2028 target of ~95.5%).
  12. PEP beats all PDP 2023-2028 SDG Tier 1 energy indicators under both REF and CES.

Pending / Gaps

  • Section E (pages 96–128): Full CES power generation mix, installed capacity, GHG projections; CFPP retirement schedule; nuclear entry detail — all deferred to next ingest
  • RA 11592 (LPG Industry Regulation Act): Cited in household demand section as driver of LPG growth; stub page still deferred
  • CREVI (Comprehensive Roadmap for EV Industry): Cited as basis for 10% EV REF assumption; standalone page deferred to EV/EVIDA ingest
  • 7 LNG projects: Named individually in source? No — only aggregate (7 projects, 22 MTPA) given; project names deferred to upstream energy ingest
  • OPEC/IMF/DBCC: Modeling assumption sources only; not added to entities.md as not energy policy actors
