A report by Rafael Diezmos on Philippine bioethanol industry updates, is posted at Asian Biofuels Hub website. Among the highlights of the report are: (1) The Philippine Biofuels Act of 2006, which targets 60% energy efficiency by 2010, is in the process of implementation; (2) about 8 to 9 ethanol production plants set to produce ethanol at 100,000 L/d to 150,000 L/d, have filed applications for accreditation to the Philippine Department of Energy (DOE); (3) the establishment of “ethanol highways” or “ethanol corridors”, patterned after the “United States Midwest Corridor Program”, has been proposed as one of many infrastructures in support of biofuels. With these developments the Philippine bioethanol industry is really getting a head start.
