The Philippines is exploring a potential interconnection with Indonesia under the broader ASEAN Power Grid initiative, according to Philstar Biz.
The ASEAN Power Grid aims to enable cross-border electricity trade across Southeast Asia, enhancing energy security and integrating renewable sources. The proposed Philippines–Indonesia link would be a key submarine cable connection, allowing power sharing between the two archipelagic nations.
Officials have not yet disclosed specific timelines or technical details, but the initiative aligns with regional efforts to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and stabilize power grids amid growing demand.
