<br/><br/> The President of the Philippine government has recently  signed the Implementing Rules and Regulations for Executive Order  No. 215, allowing the private sector to generate power.  Cogeneration became attractive since the cogenerator can sell its  excess electricity to the public utility. An assessment of the  cogeneration potential is needed for the National Energy Plan .  This study focused on the thirteen (13 ) textile plants t hat  regularly reports its thermal and electricity consumption to the  Office of Energy Affairs. A hurdle rate of internal rate of  return (IRR ) was set a nd all capacities that generated an IRR  equal to or greater than the set hurdle rate was added up to form  the potential cogeneration capacity. The data use d was for 1987  and was made as the reference scenario. A sensitivity analysis  was done by varying uncertain parameters like inflation rate ,  electricity price , buyback rate , financing structure and fuel  cost. Different cogeneration systems were a l so evaluated.
