NGCP confirms grid can take 500MW of Alternergy RE projects

The National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP) has confirmed that its grid can accommodate up to 500 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy (RE) projects from Alternergy Holdings Corp.

This clearance signifies a crucial step for Alternergy to advance its development planning and pursue its objective of achieving a 1-gigawatt (GW) capacity by 2030.

NGCP's system impact studies (SIS) assess the transmission system's ability to integrate new connections, and this approval is a key requirement for Alternergy's projects under the Green Energy Auction Program (GEA-4).

Alternergy secured five RE projects in the GEA-4, encompassing solar and wind power with battery energy storage systems located in Tarlac, Samar, Quezon, and Cebu.

These newly approved projects are slated for completion by December 2028, marking the next stage in Alternergy's expansion towards its ambitious 1-GW target.
