MANILA, Philippines – Local power generation firms are not allowed to operate an energy portfolio exceeding 7.05 gigawatts nationwide, as energy regulators have reduced the allowable installed capacity for 2026.
For this year, the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) said the national grid’s maximum installed generating capacity was 28,197.05 megawatts (MW), down slightly from last year’s 28,390.07 MW.
The ERC has limited the installed generating capacity for Luzon to 20,422.8 MW, Visayas to 3,478.3 MW, and Mindanao to 4,295.9 MW.
