  1. NET METERING

“We continue to promote the installation of solar panels and adopt Net Metering systems to allow consumers to sell back excess electricity to the grid.” — Pres. Ferdinand Marcos Jr. 

Net metering allows utility customers to generate their own electricity cleanly and efficiently.  It allows individuals and businesses with renewable energy systems, like solar panels, to send excess electricity back to the grid and receive credit on their electricity bills.

  1. DIGITAL PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE

“We are building our Digital Public Infrastructure, such as the eGov App, to streamline government services.” — Pres. Ferdinand Marcos Jr. 

This refers to a tech-based system that allows people to access government services online (e.g., IDs, certificates, bills).

It saves time, reduces corruption, and makes services more accessible.

  1. LOVE BUS

“We are reviving the iconic Love Bus as part of our clean and efficient public transport plan.” — Pres. Ferdinand Marcos Jr. 

The “Love Bus” is a term for government-run buses with modern, often electric features, aimed at improving public transport. It was first introduced in the 1970s. It is part of a nostalgic rebranding to modernize and promote eco-friendly commuting.

  1. COLD CHAIN FACILITIES

“We are investing in cold chain facilities to preserve the quality of agricultural produce.” — Pres. Ferdinand Marcos Jr. 

These are refrigerated storage and transport systems used to keep food (especially fish, meat, and vegetables) fresh from farm to market. It reduces spoilage, helping farmers and ensuring food safety.

  1. GREEN LANES

“…simplified business registration through Green Lanes…” — Pres. Ferdinand Marcos Jr. 

Green lanes fast-track channels for local and foreign businesses to register and operate. This will attract investment and boost the economy.
