Save, Invest, Nurture Access to Green Energy and Technologies (SINAG) Project
Powered by Shell’s global Access to Energy (A2E) initiative, the SINAG Project was initiated to help provide clean, reliable, and affordable energy to underserved locales. The program uses an innovative approach, employing a mix of solar, hydro, wind, and diesel generators to create microgrids—compact, self-sufficient energy-generating systems that supply power to remote communities and improve overall living conditions.
As part of the program’s engagement activities in 2023, SINAG held capacity-building trainings and the EA Summit for its seven Electrical Associations (EAs). Six EAs, represented by 67 individuals, completed the capacity-building training.

The EA Summit is an integral component of SINAG. This activity aims to formulate a 5-Year Sustainability Plan for the seven SINAG sites in Palawan, showcasing a forward-thinking approach to energy resource stewardship. 35 delegates from six EAs attended the event, which featured presentations from distinguished speakers like Mr. Clifford A. Canilla from the Cooperative Development Authority (CDA) Palawan.
