00:00Rotational brownouts are possible in more than 20 provinces in Luzon and Visayas this evening.
00:06Ian Cruz has the latest.
00:11The Luzon grid is on a red alert again until 10 p.m.
00:15The yellow alert will continue until midnight.
00:17That's why rotational brownouts are possible in some parts of Lipa, Batangas.
00:22Also in some parts of Tarlac and Bataan,
00:24as well as in Pangasinan, Nueva Vizcaya and Ifugao.
00:27That's also possible in Albay and Sorsogon.
00:30At the same time, there is still a high consumption of electricity.
00:3318 plants are not working in Luzon.
00:35The electricity produced by the three other plants is still decreasing.
00:40To help, said Miralco,
00:42they are promising their big customers
00:44that they will reduce the consumption by more than 300 MW
00:47to reduce demand.
00:49Until 7 p.m.
00:51the red alert in Visayas grid
00:53will continue until 10 p.m.
00:56That's why rotational brownouts are possible in Cebu and Negros provinces.
01:01Also in Panay provinces and Guimaras.
01:03Also in Leyte provinces,
01:05Eastern and Northern Samar and Biliran.
01:0821 plants in Visayas are not working.
01:12Three plants are working at a lower capacity.
01:16According to the Department of Energy,
01:18there are plants producing electricity in the country
01:21that if they are connected to the grid,
01:23they will produce a stronger supply of electricity.
01:26But while this is not yet operational,
01:28we need to save money.
01:30I hope our countrymen will save money.
01:32Let's not put high demand at the same time.
01:36If it gets cold, for example, at night,
01:38maybe we can launch there.
01:40Earlier, a Memorandum of Understanding
01:42was signed by the National Electrification Administration,
01:45Department of Science and Technology,
01:47and the Association of Isolated Electrical Operatives, Inc.
01:51Under this, the DOST will assist
01:54the unqualified electrical operatives
01:56to have a computer-generated dashboard
01:59to support the maintenance and maintenance of the supply.
02:02We can monitor our operation in real time.
02:09We can even remotely control the system.
02:12This will enable us to monitor their operations in real time.
02:19You need to modernize data acquisition
02:22by developing sensors
02:24that will be placed all over the system.
