| A fully private corporation, the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines, also known as NGCP, won the franchise to operate and maintain the country’s transmission network in the biggest government auction conducted in efforts to reform the local power sector. As the system operator of the power grid, NGCP balances the demand and supply of electricity to serve efficiently all of its customers such as generators, private distribution utilities, electric cooperatives, etc.
The NGCP recently had built a new substation, or as referred to in the industry as a “remote site”. This remote site contains newly developed buildings to be used as offices and for facilities to manage and operate their substation. All the controls, communication equipment and security devices are to be located in this building.
