Manila Electric Company (Meralco) commissions the new Balagtas 115-kilovolt substation located along McArthur Highway in Bulacan, which improved the distribution system and power quality in the province. The project involved the construction of a 115-kV switchyard, installation of an 83-MVA power transformer bank, construction of a new 115-kV line with a total length of eight kilometers, and three 34.5 kV new distribution feeders. It addresses the critical loading of Sta. Maria and Saog substations, improved the reliability and flexibility of Meralco’s distribution system and provides additional capacity to accommodate the increasing load demand in Balagtas and other adjacent areas including the initial power demand of the proposed new Bulacan airport and railway.
