Cebu-Negros-Panay sub-grids bolster power reliability in Panay Island

THE Cebu-Negros-Panay 230-kilovolt backbone project will significantly enhance power reliability for consumers in Panay Island, said More Power , Iloilo City's distribution utility.'This is a major relief for us at More Power and the entire Panay Island,' said Roel Castro, president and CEO of More Power , during the simultaneous ceremonial energization at the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines Substation in Barotac Viejo, Iloilo, on April 8, 2024.

In the power industry, these services ensure sufficient power supply even when a major power plant goes offline.“Here in Panay, we have four major coal plants, but in our view, the smaller plants are still lacking in case one of the four plants experiences an outage,” Castro said.The CNP project strengthens the power grid across Cebu, Negros, and Panay by constructing a new 230 kV transmission backbone that supplements the existing 138 kV facilities.
