May 12, 2026 – NISU DOE-CARE successfully conducted its First Quarter Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) Campaign at NISU Batad Campus. The activity was organized as part of the Center’s continuing commitment to promote renewable energy awareness and strengthen energy efficiency and conservation practices within the university community.
The campaign gathered students, and personnel who actively participated in the lecture-discussion and open forum. The activity highlighted key topics such as the importance of renewable energy development in the Philippines, energy security concerns, practical energy conservation measures, and the role of higher education institutions in supporting national energy goals. Emphasis was given to the legal foundations of renewable energy and energy efficiency initiatives under Republic Act No. 9513 (Renewable Energy Act of 2008) and Republic Act No. 11285 (Energy Efficiency and Conservation Act).

The resource speakers provided relevant insights on current energy challenges, including the country’s dependence on imported fossil fuels and the importance of adopting sustainable energy practices amid global uncertainties affecting fuel prices. Participants were encouraged to apply simple but impactful energy-saving habits in their daily lives.

An open forum followed the discussion, allowing participants to raise questions and share perspectives on renewable energy initiatives and conservation strategies.

The activity was made even more meaningful through the active participation and enthusiasm of the faculty, staff, and students of NISU Batad Campus, whose engagement contributed greatly to the success of the program. The students demonstrated remarkable interest and participation throughout the discussions, gaining valuable knowledge and awareness about renewable energy, sustainability, and environmental responsibility.

The program featured three distinguished resource speakers who shared their expertise, insights, and experiences regarding renewable energy development, conservation, and sustainable practices. Their informative discussions inspired the participants to become more aware of the importance of renewable energy in building a greener and more sustainable future for the community and the nation.

The NISU-DOE CARE VSSC extends its heartfelt gratitude to the administration of NISU Batad Campus, especially to Dr. Veminrose Clariza-Samuel, as well as to all faculty members, staff, and students for their warm accommodation, active involvement, and unwavering support in making this IEC Program a truly successful and meaningful event.

Together, let us continue promoting awareness, innovation, and action toward a sustainable and energy-efficient future. 🌱⚡

Overall, the First Quarter IEC Campaign at NISU Batad Campus strengthened awareness and understanding of renewable energy and energy efficiency, reaffirming the role of NISU DOE-CARE as affiliated of the Department of Energy in advancing sustainable energy advocacy within the academic community

A remarkable step toward a greener and more resilient future for Iloilo! 🌾🐟⚡

Last September 23, 2025, we successfully held the Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) and Business Forum on Agri-Aquavoltaic Technology at Casa Real, Iloilo Provincial Capitol Complex, Iloilo City. This landmark event brought together farmers, entrepreneurs, researchers, policymakers, and renewable energy advocates to explore the transformative potential of combining agriculture, aquaculture, and solar energy into one integrated and sustainable system.

Through insightful presentations, open discussions, and strategic networking, we collectively unlocked new opportunities for food security, clean energy generation, livelihood enhancement, and climate change adaptation—all aligned with the province’s vision of innovation-driven rural development.

This forum was not just a gathering, but a movement of collaboration and shared commitment to empower communities with future-ready technologies.

To everyone who joined us in this mission—thank you for being part of the change. Together, we cultivate progress from the land, water, and sun.
