In this episode, our guest is Monalisa Dimalanta, former Chairperson of the Energy Regulatory Commission, who shares insights into the Philippines' evolving energy sector.

We discuss the gap between strong renewable energy policies and execution, high power costs driven by fossil fuel dependence, and the challenges in off-grid island systems. Monalisa highlights opportunities to scale solar, storage, and hybrid solutions, alongside the need for regulatory reform.

Looking ahead, she explores a future where electricity shifts from per-kilowatt-hour pricing to a service-based model.
