Background on Project

According to the Philippine Star, in early 2015 SMC Global Power Holdings, part of San Miguel Corp. (SMC), was given the green light to conduct a grid impact study for three coal-fired power plants: a 600-MW coal plant in Malabuyoc, Cebu, a 600-MW facility in Batangas City and a 1,200-MW plant in Mariveles, Bataan.[1]

A Transmission System Impact Statement (SIS) for the project was issued on July 24, 2017.[2] September 2018 listings by the DOE list the project as consisting of one 300-MW unit.[2] As of November 2019 the project had not progressed in more than two years and appears to be shelved.
