DOE endorses 9 more power projects to NGCP for impact study on July 10, 2021 at 11:18 am
Nine more power projects have been endorsed by the Department of Energy to the National Grid Corporation to undertake system impact study (SIS).
The biggest project among the new additions is Solar Philippines’ Cabatang Tiaong Solar Power Project in Quezon with a capacity of 600 megawatts alternating current (MWac). The firm’s 120/150 megawatt-peak (MWp) solar power project in Concepcion, Tarlac was likewise cleared for SIS.
Power generating companies have to secure clearance from the DOE for SIS before developing their respective projects. This will determine if the power to be generated by the project can be consumed by the country’s transmission system.
