Based on current report to the relevant industry stakeholders, the two blocks of the new Mariveles coal-fired power plant of the San Miguel group – with 150MW capacity each – will already have their commercial operations moved to August and September; instead of the original plan for them to go on-line between March and April 2023.
As culled from the report, the deferment of the plant’s commercial commissioning had been due to “expected delay of the target plant commercial operation due to required completion of the Balsik-San Jose 500kV transmission line of the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines.” As summer months will already be felt in the days ahead, the energy department has not given any new outlook - especially with the delayed commercial operations of Mariveles 1 and 2 generating units.
Apart from the coal plants, the energy department also forecasted the entry of capacities from renewable energy projects, primarily those that will be coming from solar farm facilities when it comes to reinforcing electricity supply when the weather temperatures will start rising.
