“The construction of the 28.9-MW Palayan Binary Project is ongoing, with the aim of starting commercial operations by September 2023,” First Gen Corp. president Francis Giles Puno said.EDC is undertaking the project through subsidiary BacMan Geothermal Inc. , which owns the existing 150-MW Bac-Man Geothermal Power Plant in Bacon, Sorsogon City and Manito, Albay.
The plant, once completed, will boost the overall power generation capacity of the existing Bac-Man power plant. The PBPP will use the waste heat from the 110-MW Bacman-1 geothermal power plant to generate additional energy without the need for additional drilling. Heat from brine, which is usually produced from the wet steam operations, will be used to generate electricity by the new power plant before re-injecting back to the reservoir.
First Balfour secured the engineering, procurement and construction contract for the plant’s works package in 2020.
