Sharon Garin Appointed Secretary of Department of Energy

Malacañang announced on Thursday the appointment of Sharon Garin as the new secretary of the Department of Energy. This leadership change comes as part of a broader Cabinet reshuffle initiated by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., who requested courtesy resignations from all Cabinet members.

Palace Press Officer Claire Castro revealed the news during a press briefing, highlighting Garin’s qualifications and experience. “Secretary Garin is a lawyer and CPA with extensive public service experience, having served multiple terms as Iloilo representative and as DOE undersecretary,” Castro said. “Her strong background in energy policy and legislation will help advance accessible, reliable, and sustainable energy for our people.”

Proven Expertise to Lead the Energy Department

Sharon Garin replaces Raphael Lotilla, who was reassigned to head the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Sources said Garin’s appointment aims to strengthen the Department of Energy’s initiatives amid ongoing challenges in the energy sector.

Garin’s career spans years of public service, focusing on energy policies that prioritize sustainability and accessibility. Local leaders noted her commitment to improving energy infrastructure and legislation, which aligns with the current administration’s goals.

Transition in Cabinet Leadership

The Cabinet reshuffle follows President Marcos Jr.’s directive for all Cabinet members to tender courtesy resignations, signaling a strategic move to refresh leadership and drive government priorities more effectively. Garin’s appointment reflects confidence in her ability to steer the DOE through evolving energy demands and policies.

Experts expect that with Garin at the helm, the DOE will continue to pursue reforms that ensure stable and sustainable energy supply for Filipinos nationwide.
