ACEN to construct 1,000 mW floating solar power farm at Laguna Lake

Savings from oil and coal importation

ACEN through its subsidiary (Sun Asia) will put up a 1,000 mW floating solar farm on a 800 hectare area at Laguna Lake, the largest freshwater lake in the Philippines.   The project will cost $1.3 billion and will augment the hungry power requirements of the Luzon grid.  


One wonders about its structural stability and durability to withstand storms  and natural disaster.   
This is a great stride in RE development in the Philippines

Its all ready partially operational at Bay Laguna.  According to the President Theresa Capellan, 1,000 mW can power roughly 1 million homes.  She cited the low tariff which makes the payback period 50 years (less than 1%) and many approvals needed to get started... Whew  









The world's biggest
