AboitizPower’s distribution utility arm LIMA EnerZone, has recently completed the energization of the Batangas — LIMA 69kV Line 2, effectively increasing its reliability and doubling capacity to 100 megawatts (MW).
The line also provides supply connection redundancy to LIMA as it may be used as contingency in case Line 1 is interrupted or vice versa.
“The Batangas — LIMA 69kV Line 2 is a key piece of infrastructure that will cater to existing locators’ increasing power needs as well as the anticipated growth in demand from LIMA Estate’s industrial and commercial expansion,” said Rafael Fernandez de Mesa, LIMA Land president and head of Aboitiz InfraCapital’s Economic Estates.
The energization comes as construction of the estate’s latest 47- hectare expansion is nearing completion.
LIMA also recently broken ground on another expansion that will add an additional 150 hectares of inventory.
The 27-kilometer sub-transmission line extends from the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines Batangas at Brgy. Mahabang Parang in Batangas City to LIMA Estate in Lipa – Malvar, passing through JP Laurel Highway. It currently serves as the primary power supply line of LIMA Estate.
