The 75 identified areas covering a total of 12,212 households, were part of the 98 identified areas clustered into 49 lots previously offered during the 1st round of the MGSP-CSP in November 2023.

Republic Act (RA) No. 11646, or the Microgrid Systems Act of 2022, mandates the conduct of a CSP before an MGSP can serve off-grid areas. It likewise provides a 90-day timeline to complete the conduct of CSP from the pre-qualification until the submission of the awarded contract to the Energy Regulatory Commission. The 2023-2032 National Total Electrification Roadmap (NTER) has identified 407 areas, of which 285 are unserved comprising of 20,103 households while 122 are underserved with a total of around 20,207 households. These far-flung or remote areas have the presence of economic activities that require the much-needed electricity services. During the 1st round of the MGSP-CSP, eight (8) lots in the Provinces of Cebu, Quezon, and Palawan were awarded to the Maharlika Consortium composed of Maharlika Clean Power Holdings, Corp., Singapore-based CleanGrid Partners Pre Ltd., and WEnergy Global Pte Ltd. The Consortium as the 1st winning MGSP, will provide 24/7 electricity services to said areas through a hybrid microgrid system composed of solar photovoltaic, energy storage system, and diesel genset. ### |
