The Manila Electric Co. will energize more substations this year in a bid to build a more resilient network.
“For major load growth projects, we are now in the construction stages of 16 major substations and sub-transmission line projects which are scheduled to be commissioned or energized within the year,” he said. In September, Meralco relocated close to 2,300 poles and there are still around 2,700 that need to be relocated till the end of the year.
“With this project we have already relieved the critical loading of nearby Pamplona power transformer banks 1 and 2. And this also provides the needed capacity to accommodate the increasing power requirements in Las Piñas and Parañaque cities.”Last month, the company said it expects to surpass last year’s core income of P24.6 billion after it posted P19.6 billion in core income in January to September.
We have to keep on relying on meralco substations to stretch out the meager supply of kuryente. The permanent solution is to build more power generation.
