The newly signed law aims to promote natural gas as an “indispensable contributor” to energy security by establishing the Philippine Downstream Natural Gas Industry (PDNGI).

 The law tasks the Department of Energy (DOE) as the lead agency and is therefore authorized to evaluate, approve, and issue permits necessary for the siting, construction, operation and maintenance, expansion, modification, rehabilitation, decommissioning, and abandonment of any PDNGI facility or activity.

RA 12120 also promotes investments in the country’s natural gas industry by allowing the entry of investors through a system of competition, transparency, and fair trade, all to attain affordable energy for consumers.
