A CLEAN air advocate and university general science instructress has backed the move to incentivize the use of electric vehicles to help mainstream their use among Filipinos.

The government in January released Executive Order No. 12 series of 2023 which aims to lower the tariff rates for electric vehicles and their components to help mainstream EV usage in the country and help reduce carbon emissions. Motorcycles hold the majority of numbers among motorists in the country as the Land Transportation Office recorded around eight million registered motorcycles to the agency.

She noted that while EVs are being explored, the shift to the new mode of transport should be gradual as the country still relies on non-renewable energy sources. “Mahirap din kasi mag-shift sa bago, halimbawa, may motorcycle ka na so ngayon implement ito so first of all, dun po kasi monetary reasons di ba ang hirap unless may incentives, monetary incentives or kailangan may big sector or nasa government yung policy or control with regards to that,” Arillaga said.
