PolEco: North Cotabato residents gripe over daily brownouts, as governor slams fake power shortage

This is what I meant when I commented in InterAksyon website when they reported that there's a power shortage in Mindanao, that this shortage may not be true, and it's just that the government wants to implement in full the Epira Law. The governor of North Cotabato questioned the veracity of the report and claimed that the shortage is just artificial, and discussed the available power capacity Napocor plants can deliver to the whole grid. She said that the government wants to privatize the remaining plants of Napocor. Pls follow the link below and read the report in full.

Tech: RP Energy to build a coal-fired power plant in Subic

Another coal-fired power plant in the offing. Surely this could add to the power supply of the country, but is this good for the environment? There are lots of available renewable energy to be tapped, which may be very costly initially, but will be beneficial for the country in the long run.
