Transmission firm National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP) has completed and energized the 230-kilovolt Toril-Bunawan transmission line, which forms the final loop of the P7.09 billion Mindanao backbone project.
With the project’s completion, the company noted that “this will secure the reliability of power transmission services in the entire Mindanao.”
NGCP explained that the Mindanao backbone “will connect bulk generation from the northern and southern parts of Mindanao and ensure stable and continuous power from Lanao del Norte, passing through Agusan del Sur, all the way to Davao del Sur.”
