RULE 6 COMPLIANCE MONITORING Section 21. Submission of Annual REC Report. The submission of the Annual REC Report by the RE Registrar to the Composite Team shall be within the first quarter of each calendar year after the establishment of the RE Registrar. The Annual REC Report shall serve as the basis for the Composite Team for the Compliance Report. The DOE shall certify the level of compliance of each Mandated Participant. Section 22. Contents of the Compliance Report. The Compliance Report of the Composite Team based on the Annual REC Report shall contain, among others, the following information: (a) Compliance level of each Mandated Participant; (b) Total volume of RECs generated; (c) Total shortfall or excess in RECs, if any; and (d) Other information that may be required by the DOE. RULE 7 PROHIBITED ACTS AND SANCTIONS Section 23. Prohibited Act. Pursuant to Section 35(a) of the RE Act, non- compliance or violation of the RPS On-Grid Rules by any Mandated Participant under this Circular shall be subject to the administrative penalties herein provided. Section 24. Penalties for Non-Compliance. Consistent with RE Act, its IRR and this Rules, the following administrative and criminal sanctions may be imposed: a. Administrative Liability. The DOE may impose a penalty ranging from a minimum of One Hundred Thousand Pesos (R100,000.00) to Five Hundred Thousand Pesos (P500,000.00) or, upon its discretion, may recommend to the appropriate government agency for the revocation of the Mandated Participant's license, franchise or authority to operate. Page 14 === ocr-pages-03.ppm === Criminal Liability. In accordance with Section 36 (Penalty Clause) and Section 35 (Prohibited Acts) of the RE Act, any person who willfully fails to comply with or violates the RPS On-Grid Rules shall be imposed with the penalties provided under the RE Act. Any person who willfully aids or abets the commission of such failure or violation or who causes the comunission of any such act by another shall be liable in the same manner as the principal. In the case of association, partnership or corporations, the penalty shall be imposed on the partner, president, chief operating officer, chief executive officer, directors or officers responsible for the violation. The failure to comply with or violation of the RPS On-Grid Rules, upon conviction thereof, shall suffer the penalty of imprisonment of one (1) year to five (5) years, or a fine ranging from a minimum of One Hundred Thousand Pesos (100,000.00) to One MHundred Million Pesos (F100,000,000.00), or twice the amount of damages caused or costs avoided for non-compliance, whichever is higher, or both upon the discretion of the court. This is without prejudice to the penalties provided for under existing environmental regulations prescribed by the DENR or any other concerned government agency. The DOE Rules of Practice and Procedure shall be applicable to cases for the imposition of the foregoing penalties. In no case shall a fine or penalty imposed on a Mandated Participant be charged to any of its customers or be considered a substitute for compliance, unless such fines or penalties are provided as a future form of compliance and provide the least cost alternative to the Mandated Entity. Section 25. Suspension or Carry-Over of Compliance. The DOE shall, in any given year, suspend or carry-over_compliance of the Mandated Participant with the Annual RPS Requirement, as the case may be, under any of the following conditions: 2) Inadequate supply of the Eligible RE Facilities to meet the annual requirement; Inadequate supply of RECs to meet the annual requirement; Unavailable capacity at both the transmission and relevant distribution network to transport the Eligible RE Facilities to the grid; CS eee Page 15 === ocr-pages-04.ppm === d. Occurrence or existence of Force Majeure affecting or preventing the Mandated Participant from complying with the annual requirements, as the case may be; or e. Such other consideration or condition, economic or otherwise, which is outside the control of the Mandated Participant as may be determined by the Composite Team. In all cases, the Mandated Participant seeking suspension of compliance must demonstrate to the Composite Team that the condition was beyond its control and that it exerted all reasonable efforts to comply, notwithstanding the condition, including, but not limited to, a statement from the RE Registrar of the actual conditions reflecting any of the above circumstances. Such a statement shall be sufficient to prove that the situation is beyond the control of the Mandated Participant. Upon recommendation of the Composite Team, the DOE may, in lieu of suspending compliance of the Mandated Participant, allow the Mandated Participant to carry over the compliance shortfall for a period of 3 years. The request for suspension of compliance of the Mandated Participant shall be deemed approved by the DOE after the lapse of 60 days from date of its submission. Failure of the Mandated Participants to comply with the shortfall by the end of the carry-over period granted shall subject the Mandated Participant to the administrative liability under Section 24(a), Rule 7 of this Rules. RULE 8 TRANSITORY AND OTHER PROVISIONS Section 26. Transition Period. A Transition Period of one (1) year from the commencement of operations of the RE Market or the effectivity of this Rules, whichever is earlier, is hereby provided to ensure an orderly, efficient and effective imposition of the RPS On-Grid Rules. The said period will allow the Mandated Participants to prepare all the information and data required in the establishment of the baseline to be determined by the DOE, prepare their respective compliance mechanisms, as well as prepare the consumers for the impact of the RPS On-Grid Rules. For such purposes, all Mandated Participants are hereby directed to commence planning for their respective RPS compliance requirements from effectivity of this Circular. Page 16 === ocr-pages-05.ppm === Upon the lapse of the Transition Period, mandatory compliance with the RPS shall commence. Section 27. Reportorial Requirements. The DOE shall establish a reliable database to serve as the baseline in calculating and monitoring the compliance of the Mandated Participants. To this end, the DUs, the Generators and the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP) are mandated to submit the following documents within 6 months from the effectivity of this Circular: (a) For DUs within the period required by the DOE: i.

Energy Sales MWHs: Represents the actual sales level for the DU in 2018. The sales level is increased each year based on the Growth Rate (2). 5. RPS Requirement (MWHs): The RPS requirement starts out as the Percentage of FIT plants (1) times the prior years Energy Sales (4) plus the annual increment. . Therefore, for the year 2020 (n) the RPS requirement is 3% plus 1% times the Energy Sales for 2018 (4% X 2,165760 = 86,630) since the rule defines n-1 as year 0.

After 2022 it represents the level of new RECs needed to have the ending balance be zero after the RECs needed for compliance are surrender. 9. RECs Surrendered for Compliance: Represents the RPS requirement for a given year. The DU must surrender the number of RECs equal to the requirement for that year. 10.

Additional RECs needed: Represents the number of additional RECs that need to be augured in a given years so that the balance in the account is equal to the number of RECs that need to be surrendered ina given year. The simulation assumes that the RECs acquired in a given year will continue in future years based on a long term Power Supply Agreement with an eligible RE plant. 12.
