“Since this is an existing generation facility, there are no emissions added to the total GHG emissions of the Philippines,” the company said.

“With the energization of the Mindanao-Visayas Interconnection, this plant will be able to export much-needed capacity to the national grid, which has experienced tightness of supply reserves in recent years,” it added.

STEAG is developing and maintaining a 210-megawatt coal-fired power plant at the PHIVIDEC Industrial Estate in Misamis Oriental in Southern Philippines.
