ABOITIZ POWER CORP. (AboitizPower) is looking for to develop a P8.44-billion wind farm in Bangui, Ilocos Norte, based on documents filed with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR).<\/span><\/p>\n

Luzon Cleanergy Generation, Inc., an entirely owned subsidiary of Aboitiz Renewables, Inc., has proposed to develop a 132.8-megawatt (MW) wind power project, based on documents submitted as a part of the environmental impact assessment process.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe proposed wind power plant will help augment the demand for reliable and reasonably priced power supply. The proposed project won’t only supply enough electricity to Filipino households and businesses but will even contribute to national development,\u201d the corporate said in its filing.<\/span><\/p>\n

The proposed wind farm will span eight municipalities in Ilocos Norte and can deploy 17 wind turbine generators, each with a rated capability of 8 MW.<\/p>\n

The project\u2019s renewable energy service contract covers 3,321 hectares (ha), of which 656.96 ha will probably be developed.<\/p>\n

Luzon Cleanergy Generation is targeting the beginning of construction within the second quarter of 2029, with business operations scheduled for the second quarter of 2031.<\/p>\n

The project is scheduled for public scoping on July 22, an early stage of the environmental impact assessment process during which the project proponent presents an outline of the proposed development and gathers issues and concerns from stakeholders.<\/p>\n

Aboitiz Renewables is the renewable energy arm of AboitizPower and develops and operates a diversified portfolio of renewable energy projects spanning solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and battery energy storage systems. The corporate has greater than 1,000 MW of renewable energy capability within the pipeline.<\/p>\n

For 2026, AboitizPower has earmarked P62 billion in capital expenditures to fund its pipeline of renewable energy and battery energy storage system projects.<\/p>\n

The Aboitiz group is the country\u2019s largest power producer, accounting for a 24.3% market share with an aggregate installed capability of 6,850.63 MW. \u2014 Sheldeen Joy Talavera<\/b><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
