Alternergy Holdings Corp. said its subsidiary Alternergy Tanay Wind Corp. has energized the transmission facilities of its 128-megawatt (MW) Tanay Wind Project, moving the project closer to commercial operations, as reported by BusinessWorld.
The energization covers the project’s 500-kilovolt (kV) substation and 500-kV transmission facilities, which will connect the wind farm to the national grid. The Tanay Wind Project is located in Rizal province and is expected to contribute to the country’s renewable energy capacity.
With transmission infrastructure now live, the project can proceed with commissioning and testing of wind turbines, targeting full commercial operations in the near term. The milestone underscores Alternergy’s commitment to expanding its renewable energy portfolio in the Philippines.
