Meralco Industrial Engineering Services Corporation (MIESCOR), the Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Operations arm of the Manila Electric Company (Meralco), is playing a pivotal role in linking the Terra Solar Project to the Luzon grid by ensuring the delivery of the energy it would generate once the project becomes operational.
MIESCOR has signed a contract with Terra Solar Philippines, Inc. (TSPI) to design and construct critical infrastructure connecting the solar plant to the grid. This includes 34.5/230/500-kilovolt (kV) Main Collector Substation, 34.5/230-kV Solar PV Satellite Collector Substations, and double-circuit 230-kV Transmission Lines.
“MIESCOR plays a crucial role in connecting the Terra Solar plant to the grid, and we are excited to be part of this groundbreaking step in renewable energy. The project, formalized through our contract signing with Terra Solar Philippines, Inc. (TSPI), is already underway,” MIESCOR President and Chief Executive Officer Richard O. Ochava said.
“MIESCOR is fully committed to advancing renewable energy infrastructureHe added that ourur goal is to become a leading force in the renewable energy sector anpromoteng sustainable development in the Philippines,” he added.
TSPI is pioneering the development of what is envisioned to be the largest solar facility with battery storage in the Philippines, consisting of a 3,500-megawatt peak (MWp) solar plant and a 4,500-megawatt-hour (MWh) Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) spanning the provinces of Nueva Ecija and Bulacan.
Site operations are already underway for the project, with the team dedicated to hitting energization targets on time—the first phase of 2,500 MWp to be completed by 2026 and the second phase by 2027.
