The manual load dropping or rotational power interruptions implemented on Monday evening due to red alerts hoisted over the Luzon grid affected about 100,000 customers, according to the Manila Electric Company .“The supply deficiency last night prompted Meralco to implement manual MLD that lasted around 20 minutes to an hour starting at 8:31 p.m., affecting around 100,000 customers mostly in parts of Bulacan . All services were restored by 10:00 p.m.,” Meralco spokesperson Joe Zaldarriaga said.
“The continued participation of our big-load customers proves to be very beneficial in managing the current supply situation. They collectively de-loaded around 300 MW yesterday, helping minimize rotational power interruptions despite the hours-long Red Alert that started at 1:00 p.m., ” Zaldarriaga said.“With the Luzon Grid still on Red Alert today, we are still ready to implement MLD if needed as part of our responsibility to manage the system,” he said.
