Former Oriental Mindoro Congressman Rodolfo G. Valencia has proposed the use of coal as the most practical and economically-viable solution to end the power crisis in Mindoro island.
CALAPAN CITY, Oriental Mindoro —
Valencia, chairman of the RGV Group of Companies he founded five decades ago, said that coal plants nowadays, like those operated by privately-owned D.H. Consunji, Inc. are using government-approved filtering technology. The loan power distributor, Oriental Mindoro Electric Cooperative Inc. has repeatedly admitted that shortage of fuel has also triggered power disruptions in all its covered areas.
The subsidized price or better known as Subsidized Approved Generation Rate has been previously pegged by the Energy Regulatory Commission , a government regulatory body, at P5.64/kwh, which is way below the approximately P25/kwh True Cost Generation Rate .
