Manila-based policy group Institute for Climate and Sustainable Cities (ICSC) said that the Luzon power grid may experience power interruptions of varying lengths in the second quarter of this year, which includes election day on May 9. The ICSC report is an analysis of the latest summer power outlook of transmission service provider National Grid Corp. of the Philippines (NGCP) which stated that the Luzon grid would have “sufficient, but thin reserves” in the months leading to elections and afterwards.
