AboitizPower has given a 30-kVA generator set to the Marine Battalion Landing Team-6 based in Patikul, Sulu.
The donation was arranged by Senator Teofisto Guingona III along with AboitizPower executive vice president Antonio Moraza.
“One of the biggest power companies in Mindanao is AboitizPower,” Guingona said during the turnover rites. “AboitizPower responded immediately when we asked for their help.”
Moraza, also generation group chief operating officer, welcomed the opportunity to help in further improving living conditions in the south.
“We are honored to provide support to your efforts to strengthen civil and community relations,” he said. “Aboitiz has been in Mindanao for close to 80 years.”
The company operates hydroelectric and fossil-based assets, and distribution utilities in the region.
AbotiizPower is set to add 354 MW to the Mindanao grid by 2015 to beef up the power supply through its wholly owned subsidiary, Therma Marine Inc., with 23 customers.
The additional capacity will come from the 300-MW clean coal plant of Therma South Inc., and the 54-MW of run-of-river hydro plants of Hedcor Inc., both wholly-owned subsidiaries as well.
“We continue to fulfill our mission of helping people help themselves by implementing projects that will improve their quality of lives,” Moraza said.
“I would like to congratulate Marine Battalion Landing Team-6 for being the beneficiary of the generator set. We hope that this unit will aid you in your day-to-day operations.”    source
