SEC stated
that it will re-conduct the 100% load rejection and trip to house load tests on
March 31 and April 1, 2016, respectively, which were considered “indispensable
to ensure the power plant’s reliability”. SEC’s final schedule is not yet
available at the moment.
We again appeal of your kind understanding
for possible interruptions. SOCOTECO II will manage whatever supply available
and distribute it as evenly as possible to all customers in Sarangani Province,
Tupi and Polomolok and General Santos City.
Thank you.
