demand for electricity and antiquity of power plants, the abolishment of the
Department of Energy and discontinuation of the Bataan Nuclear Power Plant
during the Aquino administration. During his State of the Nation address on July
27, 1992, he requested that the Congress enact a law that would create an
Energy Department that would plan and manage the Philippines' energy
demands. Congress not only created an Energy Department but gave him
special emergency powers to resolve the power crisis. Using the powers given
to him, Ramos issued licenses to independent power producers (IPP) to

guaranteed the government would buy whatever power the IPPs produced

sufficient to support the program. To address this
problem, Ramos signed R.A. No. 8532 to amend the
