Luzon is projected to have a 4.3% annual average growth rate in peak demand, from 6,535 MW in 2008 to 9,505 MW in 2017. Visayas and Mindanao will have a higher growth rate at 5.1% and 4.7%, respectively from 1,097 MW in 2008 to 1,701 MW in 2017 for Visayas, and from 1,177 MW in 2008 to 1,751 MW in 2017 for Mindanao. 

In terms of energy requirement, DUs in Luzon is projected to grow at an annual average growth rate of 4.7% over the ten-year planning period, from 38,844 GWh in 2008 to 58,433 GWh in 2017.
