Power failure halts trains, leaves Palace, other offices without electricity
5 power plants go on unscheduled shutdown, NGCP says
INQUIRER.net 3:07 pm | Wednesday, May 8th, 2013

MANILA, Philippines – Five major power plants went on unscheduled shutdowns Wednesday, causing power outages in parts of Luzon, including Metro Manila, according to the National Grid Corp. of the Philippines (NGCP).

The NGCP said these five power facilities – First Gen’s 1,000-MW Sta. Rita, 500MW San Lorenzo; 647-MW Sual unit; unit of Ilijan gas; and QPPL –| can generate a total of 3,700 megawatts (MW), which is about 45 percent of the total electricity requirements of Luzon.

Cynthia Alabanza, NGCP spokesperson, said the five power facilities shut down starting 2 p.m. today, Wednesday.

The outages can last up four hours, she added. It remains uncertain as to when the power facilities will resume operations.

The power failure also hit Malacañan Palace, the Commission on Elections headquarters in Palacio del Governador and Camp Aguinaldo.

The Light Railway Transit put “all trains on hold position,” said LRT spokesman Hernando Cabrera.

Reports from the field also showed that power outage has affected Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, La Union Pangasinan, and Batangas.

The power outage struck days before the national and local elections are scheduled to be held on May 13. Voters will be using PCOS machines to cast their ballots.

sa amin makati nagtext kapatid ko kakaroon lang kuryente. pede na umuwi.

[glenn manikis]

sobra siguro load.. sobrang init kasi ngayon.. madami gumagamit nang aircon..

sobrang load? malabo yun... computed yan... laging malaki ang allowance....

at mag automatic shutdown mga yan.. then mag on ulit..... after a few seconds...

baka hudyat yan sa pag tataas ng meralco ng power... ganyan din ang ginawa sa MINDANAO... kunwari may shortage....

Hinde malaki allowance ng power sa Luzon. We're actually running very thin Sa reserve, kaya pag meron unschedule down ang isang plant. Malaki effect.

Kaya siguro nag down yun 4 dahil na overload since biglang mag down yun isa.

pag sinabi shutdown ang power plant tigil ba ang ikot? (regardless kung pinapaikot ng natgas, coal, geothermal, hydro etc)

kung tigil ang ikot how can you restart in a few seconds?

kung may papalitan piesa?

it takes hours

[ghosthunter]

5 power plants sabay sabay ng down?

bakit ano daw problema?

cant imagine naman na sabay sabay masisira lahat yun.... impossible yun...

baka naman balak lang magtaas ng MERALCO... para may basis sila sa pagtaas....

One power station went down, four others went down in domino effect to prevent damage to the systems.

[lowslowbenz]

Naku, kawawa mga uuwi ngayon 5PM.

Malaking plant pala unang nag down kaya Hinde kinaya ng thin reserve kaya nag down na rin yun 4 maliliit na PP.

Sa QC naman di nawala ng power, was suprised when I called home to check. Sa Binondo, only half the place lost power. 2 hours + rin before na restored. Yung traffic light sa Recto were back on-line when I passed by. Iba yung story sa Espana to Welcome. Patay lahat ng traffic light, and only one was manned by a lone TE on Lacson-UST. Yung sa Blumentritt nag kagulo naman... Heard on the radio the traffic sa skyway was already on C-5...
