January 20, 2023 Dear Ms. Cabataña, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Jan 03, 2023 09:49:37 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch. Your request You asked for Breakdown of waste biomass by region in the Philippines in 2020-2022. Response to your request We wish to inform you that biomass resources common in the Philippines are by-products and wastes/residues from agricultural production such as rice husk, livestock manure, sugarcane bagasse, coconut wastes, forestry residues and urban wastes. However, the Department of Energy has no available data on the annual biomass production of each region in the country. Nonetheless, we recommend you to refer to the data published by the Philippine Statistics Authority accessible through OpenSTAT with links listed below. From these, the annual biomass production/resources may be estimated using the attached main assumptions in resource calculation of biomass resources: Crops: https://openstat.psa.gov.ph/PXWeb/pxweb/en/DB/DB__2E__CS/?tablelist=true&rxid=bdf9d8da-96f1-4100-ae09-18cb3eaeb313 Livestock: https://openstat.psa.gov.ph/PXWeb/pxweb/en/DB/DB__2E__LP/?tablelist=true&rxid=bdf9d8da-96f1-4100-ae09-18cb3eaeb31 Your right to request a review If you are unhappy with this response to your FOI request, you may ask us to carry out an internal review of the response by writing to Secretary Raphael Perpetuo Lotilla at [email protected].
