“The energy sector is an interconnected system among generators, the transmission network, and distribution utilities or electric co-operatives.

We have long advocated that a holistic approach to power planning, particularly proper, mindful, and responsible generation and transmission planning, are key to a stable grid.

Basic principles such as individual island self-sufficiency, decreased interisland interdependency, and transmission redundancies must be considered. Improvements must be made on the entire system,” NGCP said.

It already identified several solutions involving all sectors of the energy industry, including clearance of line obstructions, review of generator settings, improvement in generation planning, enhancement of information dissemination, effective use of emerging technologies, acceleration of grid reinforcement projects, and review of the grid code.

“NGCP is grateful that the Committee recognized that all sectors of the industry must be involved to create a lasting solution. We continue to look for opportunities for improvement, for broader solutions to long standing energy issues, as we coordinate with other energy players for a synchronized plan of action,” the power grid operator added.

“NGCP also vowed to expedite transmission side solutions, including the completion of the Cebu-Negros-Panay 230kV Backbone Project,” the company added. Lenie Lectura
