Marcos cuts 2025 property taxes for power producers to avert fiscal, energy risks

December 04, 2025

Business World Philippines

PHILIPPINE President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. ordered a reduction of real property taxes on independent power producers (IPP) for 2025, warning that full assessments could trigger defaults, strain state finances and disrupt power supply.

- Chloe Mari A. Hufana

Executive Order (EO) No. 106, issued on Nov. 28 and published on Wednesday, lowers this year’s property-tax liabilities of IPPs —including special education fund charges — operating under build-operate-transfer and similar contracts with government-owned firms.

Taxes will now be based on 15% of fair market value, depreciated 2% annually, minus any payments already made.

The directive also wipes out all interest and penalties on unpaid obligations, with excess payments credited to future liabilities.
