The city council of Kidapawan recently passed a resolution endorsing the construction of another geothermal power plant in Barangay Ilomavis.
The same resolution also authorized the local chief executive to sign a memorandum of agreement with the Energy Development Corporation (EDC) that operates the first two geothermal plants in the area.
Signing of the MoA is required before the EDC could start construction of the third geothermal plant in Mindanao geothermal production field situated in Mount Apo.
