“Power interruptions experienced in Boracay are very
inconvenient.”
This is only one of the few complaints lifted by stakeholders in the
island in line with the frequent brown outs.
For this reason, the Boracay Foundation Incorporated (BFI) will
set a meeting with the Officials of AKLECO on May 10 in order to further
explain power interruptions matters to the stakeholders.
According to BFI Executive Director Ms. Pia Miraflores, many
resort owners and stakeholders are complaining because of the damages on their
generator sets and other electrical appliances brought about by the
interruptions.
Aside from this, guests are also annoyed about the fluctuating
power supply.
Meanwhile, AKELCO has previously issued a notice explaining that
the power interruptions are due to low voltage and manual load dropping.
This is also a result of the continued repair of the NGCP 69KV
connection to the 50MVA in Panit-an, Capiz which is also connected to the Nabas
sub-station where AKELCO is obtaining its supply from.
In line with this, AKELCO encourages its consumers to be wise
enough in using electricity.
