The Negros Electric and Power Corp. (NEPC) represented by its President and CEO Roel Castro has started implementing its 5-year rehabilitation and modernization plan for the facilities it inherited from Central Negros Electric Cooperative (CENECO).
With its rehabilitation and modernization plan, Negros Power is collaborating with local investors like Almana Power Corporation (APC) represented by its President and CEO Ritchie Neil Corpus with its mini-hydropower plants in Maragandang and Bantolinao, further fostering community partnerships and involvement.
Castro explained that seven out of the twelve power transformers in the franchise area have exceeded the standard 25-year lifespan for optimal operation and need immediate rehabilitation.*
