The National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP) on Saturday said the Luzon grid will be placed on yellow alert from 6 to 10 p.m. today.
This is because the available capacity at 7 p.m. is at 12,048 MW while peak demand is at 11,426 MW.
The NGCP said 22 power plants are on forced outage while another one is running on derated capacity.
This means a total of 2,325.8MW of power is unavailable to the Luzon grid.
“A yellow alert is issued when the operating margin is insufficient to meet the transmission grid’s contingency requirement,” the NGCP said. —KG, GMA Integrated News
