MANILA, Philippines -
DM Consunji Inc. and SL Development Construction Corp. have bagged
contracts to upgrade transmission line projects in Mindoro to improve the
reliability and reduce systems loss in the island.
DM Consunji Inc. won
the bid for the rehabilitation of the 69kV 44 kilometer Calapan–Bansud
transmission line, expansion of the Bansud and San Jose Substations and
construction of the Mansalay Switching Station.

DM Consunji is the
construction arm of DMCI Holdings Inc., which operates diesel and bunker power

Meanwhile, SL
Development is among the leading contractors of the National Grid Corp. of the
Philippines (NGCP), the country’s grid operator.
State-run National
Power Corp. (Napocor) has awarded three transmission line projects after
getting clearance from its board of directors chaired by the Department of
Finance.
“These projects will also improve power
dispatch and enhance system protection of the grid,” said Napocor president Ma.
Gladys Cruz-Sta. Rita.
Likewise, Napocor said
it has recently completed the rehabilitation of the 69 kV 87 km
Mamburao–Sablayan–Ligaya in Occidental Mindoro and is currently undertaking the
