The National Grid Corp. of the Philippines (NGCP) is investing P1.65 billion to upgrade a transmission line and expand the capacity of two substations in southern Luzon to accommodate the increasing power demand within the area.
According to the NGCP, it was spending P1.13 billion to upgrade the Kalayaan-Bay 230-kiloVolt (kV) transmission line in Laguna to help reduce system loss.
The NGCP explained that the Kalayaan-Bay corridor provided the shortest route from power-generation sources to the distributors and electric cooperatives and offered operating flexibility in the dispatch of power plants in the area, including the 458.53 MWe Makban geothermal power facility—particularly during maintenance of the related transmission lines.
