Amid the long power outages being experienced in Occidental Mindoro province, the National Electrification Administration (NEA) on Thursday said it has sealed a deal for a two-month additional power supply for the province that will be subsidized by the government.
In a statement, the NEA said starting April 29, residents of Occidental Mindoro will get an additional six to seven hours of electricity per day in the next two months after it secured an agreement with Power Systems Inc. to operate a power plant in San Jose town.
"NEA will cover the cost of operation for the first two months, that is the help we'll get from the national government in the person of President Bongbong Marcos," NEA Administrator Antonio Almeda said. "The DMCI promised to roll out 10 MW in a matter of 30 days and the 7 MW in two months," Almeda said.
