The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) has partnered with Xavier University-Ateneo de Cagayan (XU) to introduce “Green BioH2E” Research and Development (R&D) Laboratory with the intent to fast-track renewable energy (RE) development in Mindanao, specifically in waste-to-energy technologies.
“This technology, if viable, can lower utility rates and production costs, making local goods more affordable,” said project leader Dr. Shierlyn Paclijan.
The lab, located at XU’s College of Engineering (COE), was funded by DOST’s Philippine Council for Industry, Energy, and Emerging Technology Research and Development

(PCIEERD). It explores the feasibility of converting waste into energy, with the long-term goal of reducing energy costs for local industries.
The lab’s initial projects aim to set the foundatio

n for industries in Northern Mindanao to integrate renewable energy solutions, promoting both accessibility and long-term sustainability.
This initiative was part of Mindanao’s broader strategy to achieve a 50:50 balance between renewable energy and fossil fuels by 2030, led by the Mindanao Renewable Energy Acceleration and Coordination Hub.
Currently, coal and other fossil fuels still make up 69% of the region’s energy supply, underscoring the urgency of transitioning to cleaner sources.
