“I am here today because it is important to highlight the importance of our shift from fossil fuels to renewables. And this is a very, very important and very, very large part of that shift that we are trying to implement in our energy mix,” Marcos said.
The project must have a capacity of 160 MW by the end of 2025, in compliance with the Department of Energy’s Green Energy Auction Program. He said the project has so far provided more than 1,200 jobs to the local community since construction began in 2021. With the government aiming to expand the use of renewable energy in the country, Marcos in April issued an executive order to expedite the issuance of permits for offshore wind power projects.
