232 projects worth P6.11T granted Green Lane status in 2025

A total of 232 strategic projects were awarded Green Lane status in 2025, the Board of Investments–One-Stop Action Center for Strategic Investments (OSAC-SI) reported on Thursday.

The BOI-OSAC-SI said the 232 Green Lane-certified projects represent a combined investment value of P6.11 trillion ($107.69 billion) and are expected to generate about 398,567 jobs nationwide.

Of the total endorsed projects, 163 worth P5.48 trillion are in the pre-development stage, 47 are already under construction, six are in the pre-operation stage, and 16 projects are already operational.

Renewable energy projects dominate the Green Lane portfolio, accounting for 179 projects valued at P5.21 trillion and projected to generate around 249,801 jobs.

Other priority sectors covered under Executive Order No. 18 include digital infrastructure, food security, manufacturing, public-private partnership infrastructure, and water projects—sectors aligned with the administration’s development agenda.

The Green Lane mechanism has also supported company registrations with the Board of Investments. As of end-2025, 110 Green Lane projects are already registered with the BOI and one with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority, with a combined project cost of P3.16 trillion.

Meanwhile, 121 projects worth about P2.95 trillion are still being considered for registration or are actively pursued as investment leads.

For 2025 alone, BOI data showed that 34 Green Lane projects were registered with the BOI, underscoring the initiative’s role in helping investors navigate regulatory processes and advance projects more efficiently.

The Green Lane initiative, established under Executive Order No. 18, aims to fast-track the implementation of strategic investments while boosting investor confidence through streamlined, transparent, and coordinated government action.

Ma. Cristina Roque, secretary of the Department of Trade and Industry, highlighted the importance of the program.

“The Green Lane initiative reflects President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s administration’s strong commitment to creating an environment conducive to investments,” Roque said.

“It is a critical step in enhancing the Philippines’ position as an investment hub in Asia, which will ultimately benefit our people by generating jobs and fostering sustainable economic growth,” she added.
