— The Department of Energy plans to conduct in June the first testing and commissioning of the Mindanao-Visayas Interconnection Project — a grid link that will allow the transfer of Mindanao's surplus power supply to Visayas and Luzon.
In 2017, the Energy Regulatory Commission authorized the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines to construct the Mindanao-Visayas grid link. Using High-Voltage Direct Current cables, circuit-kilometer of submarine cables and circuit-kilometer of overhead wires, the MVIP will connect Dapitan, Zamboanga del Norte to Santander, Cebu.
According to Marasigan, once the grid is completed, a better transmission system will flow from Luzon to Mindanao, and vice versa, especially when the Cebu-Negros-Panay Enhancement Project is also completed. Under the NGCP, the Cebu-Negros-Panay grid link will operate in Tomonto, Silay, San Carlos, E.B. Magalona and San Enrique in Negros Occidental; Barotac Veijo and Dingle in Iloilo and CebuKung mabubuksan 'yung interconnection project, maipapasa yan sa Visayas o sa Luzon kung saan may kakulangan ng supply ng kuryente[Translation: There is surplus supply of electricity in Mindanao.
