The Philippine Star
|August 21, 2025
The Department of Energy (DOE) recently completed a field survey in Palawan as part of its nationwide effort to assess the country's potential for native or "white" hydrogen.
The DOE said a technical team from its Energy Resource Development Bureau and the Energy Research and Testing Laboratory Services collected water, gas and rock samples from hot springs and rock outcrops in Puerto Princesa City, Narra and Sofronio Española from Aug. 12 to 15.
It said initial results from sites such as Kay's Hot Spring in Barangay Sta. Lourdes, Puerto Princesa and Bato-Bato Hot Spring in Barangay Calategas, Narra, showed promising signs of naturally occurring hydrogen.
