00:00 Almost 215 megawatts of electricity is needed for the 300 megawatts of electricity that will be supplied to the grid of plants in Panay

00:10 according to the 9pm update of NGCP.

00:13 While the brownout is still ongoing, hospitals are being forced to spend.

00:19 That's what I witnessed.

00:21 Students are having a pie while they are having fun in class yesterday in Antique.

00:29 The weather is hot and there's no ventilator because there's no electricity.

00:34 This is what was avoided by 284 schools that suspended classes in Iloilo City and the provinces of Iloilo, Aklan and Capiz.

00:43 Teachers were forced to do makeup classes when students returned from school.

00:48 In Iloilo City, it's not hot anymore so the house was allowed to be left open for the senior citizens.

00:55 But usually, we're old and we're short. Of course, we're not hot.

01:01 I don't want to be without a coat.

01:04 Due to the wide power outage, the cost of the electricity in the city is up to half a million pesos per day.

01:11 Hospitals are also spending more because of the need for the use of generators.

01:17 Moreover, the management of a hospital in Pavia is in charge of destroying the hospital equipment.

01:24 We have patients who need to be secured.

01:28 We're paying for the generator's consumption which is almost 40,000 pesos in two days.

01:38 Rojas Memorial Provincial Hospital in Capiz was not affected.

01:42 Now, the electricity supply is back.

01:45 The same is true for the barangays in Manok-Manok, Balabag and Yapac in Boracay.

01:51 But the generators of the tourism establishments are still ready.

01:55 They are being called to prioritize the supply of electricity.

02:01 The Energy Regulatory Commission is still investigating what happened.

02:06 The Department of Energy also wants to know why the three biggest plants that supply electricity in Panay Island went wrong.

02:14 The PEDC-1 that happened at 12 o'clock had an internal problem which is the boiler pressure pump.

02:25 But when the PEDC unit fell, the Palm Conception Power Corporation also fell and died.
