In addition, DOTC, a designated lead agency for SE, has climate expenditures under SE (11%, or PHP
7.5 billion), mainly supporting expansion of the LRT system in Metro Manila and construction
of BRT in Cebu. This is a 33% increase in SE climate expenditures for DOTC from FY 2015.

Key PAPs in the 2015 budget that contribute to SE objectives
Nearly all (93%) of the approved SE climate budget for FY16 is concentrated in one PAP:
•
National Road Network Services (DPWH, PHP 58.4 billion, compared to PHP 45.5 billion
in FY 2015): DPWH allocated nearly half (45%) of its approved climate expenditure in FY16 for
the rehabilitation, reconstruction, and upgrading of roads and bridges. DPWH is the only
department that has a budget for climate-resilient infrastructure in 2016.
In addition, DOTC has allocated PHP 7.3 billion
for the expansion of the LRT system in
Metro Manila and construction of BRT in
Cebu, and DOST allocated PHP 0.2 billion for
the research program of Philippine
Council for Industry, Energy and
Em erging Technology Research and
Developm ent
(PCIEERD).
PCIEERD’s
reasearch program covers research and
development on a wide range of areas,
including energy efficiency, renewable energy
and low-carbon transport – to make them
more attractive options. The program also
conducts risk and vulnerability assessments of
energy system in order to help encourage the
adoption of renewable energy.
