Deal #11034

The plant is expected to deliver 7.5-megawatt peak (MWp) power. The solar power supply, along with SUWECO’s 8.8-megawatt (MW) diesel-powered generators, is expected to address the power problem in the towns of Odiongan, San Andres, Calatrava, San Agustin, Santa Maria, Santa Fe, Alcantara, Looc, and Ferrol. SUWECO has said in its statement that the Tumingad Solar Power Plant will provide clean, green, and reliable electricity to at least 43,400 households in Romblon. SUWECO started to construct the Tumingad Solar Power Project in 2018 and is set to connect the solar supply by September to Tablas Island’s Microgrid, considered as the largest Hybrid Solar-Diesel Microgrid with battery in the Philippines. SUWECO entered an agreement with Tablas Island Electric Cooperative, Inc. (TIELCO) to supply the 7.5-megawatt electricity requirement of the archipelagic island province in the MIMAROPA Region.
