MANILA, Philippines — State-run
Power Sector Assets and Liabilities Management Corp. (PSALM) is seeking interested
parties to bid for consulting services for the privatization of the Malaya
Thermal Power Plant.
In a document posted on its website,
PSALM said the approved budget for the contract (ABC) was set at P8.6 million.
Bids received in excess of the ABC
shall be automatically rejected at the opening of the financial proposals,
PSALM said.
“PSALM now calls for the submission
of eligibility documents for the provision of consulting services for the
privatization of Malaya Thermal Power Plant,” the firm said.
Interested consultants need to
submit eligibility documents to PSALM’s Bids and Awards Committee (BAC) on
before Aug. 24.
The BAC shall draw up the short list
of consultants from those who have submitted expressions of interest.
“The short list shall consist of at
least one prospective bidder who will be entitled to submit bids,” the PSALM
said.
The 650-megawatt Malaya plant is
located in Pililia, Rizal and consists of a 300-MW unit with a once-through
type boiler and a 350-MW unit fitted with a conventional boiler.
It was last rehabilitated in 1995 by
Korea Electric Power Corp. under a 15-year rehabilitate-operate-manage-maintain
agreement.
The Malaya power plant was
designated as a must-run unit by the Department of Energy (DOE) to address
supply deficiency when operating power plants in the grid suddenly bog down or
become unavailable.
