Republic Act No. 11234 or the Energy Virtual One-Stop Shop Act (EVOSS Act) was enacted on March 8, 2019 to ensure the quality, reliability, and security of energy at reasonable cost by undertaking measures to guarantee that supply meets demand in a timely manner.[1]<\/sup><\/strong><\/sup><\/em><\/a> The purpose of the law is to streamline the permitting process of projects for power generation, transmission, and distribution.[2]<\/sup><\/a> The EVOSS Act refers to an online system that allows the coordinated submission and synchronous processing of all required data and information, and provides a single decision-making portal for actions on applications for permits and\/ore certifications necessary for, or related to, an application of a new proponent for new power generation, transmission, or distribution projects.[3]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n This piece of legislation mandates government agencies and instrumentalities to act, within a maximum of thirty days, upon applications for permits involving Energy Projects of National Significance (EPNS) that meet the qualifications stated in the EO.

It was also created to harmonize and expedite the implementation of the EVOSS Act, EODB Act, EO 30, and AO 23 with the establishment of unified and streamlined permitting processes, and to maximize benefits from energy projects to the host communities.[6]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" EVOSS ACT Republic Act No. 11234 Republic Act No. 11234 or the Energy Virtual One-Stop Shop Act (EVOSS Act) was enacted on March 8, 2019 to ensure the quality, reliability, and security of energy at reasonable cost by undertaking measures to guarantee that supply meets demand in a timely manner.[1] The purpose of the law […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[15],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/solarsolutions.ph\/portal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/solarsolutions.ph\/portal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/solarsolutions.ph\/portal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/solarsolutions.ph\/portal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/solarsolutions.ph\/portal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=639"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/solarsolutions.ph\/portal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":640,"href":"https:\/\/solarsolutions.ph\/portal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/639\/revisions\/640"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/solarsolutions.ph\/portal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=639"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/solarsolutions.ph\/portal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=639"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/solarsolutions.ph\/portal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=639"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
