Aboitiz Power Corporation (AboitizPower), through its subsidiary East Asia Utilities Corporation (EAUC), is set to construct a 30-megawatt (MW) hybrid Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) within the Mactan Economic Zone, reinforcing efforts to improve grid reliability in the Visayas region.
Considered one of the first large-scale energy storage systems in Central Visayas, the hybrid BESS will provide ancillary services by storing surplus electricity and releasing it to the grid when needed to help stabilize power supply.
According to the Department of Energy, the share of variable renewable energy like solar and wind could rise to as much as 28 percent by 2031. In this context, energy storage systems like BESS will be essential for managing fluctuations and ensuring reliable delivery of power.
With Lapu-Lapu City now assured of reliable power, he noted that energy supply from the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines (NGCP) could be redirected to underserved areas in Cebu. Cebu Governor Pamela Baricuatro, also present at the launch, lauded the project for aligning with the province's climate and development agenda.
In the Visayas, coal-fired power plants such as AboitizPower's Therma Visayas Inc. (TVI) still contributes to the region's generation mix, helping maintain grid stability as renewable integration increases. According to the Department of Energy, the share of variable renewable energy like solar and wind could rise to as much as 28 percent by 2031.
