NGCP develops Mindanao protocol

National Grid Corp. of the Philippines said it developed the  Interim Mindanao Dispatch Protocol, paving the way for the successful launch of the Wholesale Electricity Spot Market in the region.

The dispatch protocol was implemented during the transitory period in preparation for the start of WESM’s commercial operations in Mindanao.

The Mindanao grid suffered rotating brownouts due to generation deficiency in the past years. However, the entry of large generators significantly increased supply, now creating a surplus and prompting the extension of WESM operations to Mindanao. WESM Mindanao was officially launched in June with National Grid’s support.

“From its inception to its launch, we are very proud to be a part of this major development in Mindanao power operations. In line with our mandate to provide the best transmission services, we are always eager to support initiatives which will improve the grid’s power situation,” the grid operator said.
