Background on Plant

In March 2019, Hanjo Group Manufacturing from South Korea signed a memorandum of agreement with the Bataan provincial government for a 600 MW coal plant in the province. Bataan governor Albert Garcia said the project, estimated to require an investment of about US$1 billion, would be under a public-private partnership. The project will need to undergo a feasibility study, thus no dates have been announced yet on the start of construction or the commercial operation date. In addition, the specific site for the plant is still to be identified.
