CONSUMERS have been urged to conserve energy amid the threat of low power supply yet high demand for electricity, which might result in rotational brownouts in some areas of Cebu Island. Michael Ligalig, the government relations and regional affairs lead specialist of the National Grid Corp. of the Philippines Cebu and Bohol area, told SunStar Cebu on Wednesday, April 17, 2024, that the transmission firm issued yellow alert warnings for the Visayas grid on Wednesday from 1 to 10 p.m.

He explained that yellow alert is part of the warning system of the NGCP to inform distribution utilities and consumers of an insufficient operating margin. “Yellow alert is not something to worry about because we can still tap reserve power. What we’re worried about is a red alert. Even then, the NGCP has several contingencies to minimize rotational brownouts,” Ligalig said in a mix of Cebuano and English.
