Several milestones happened recently in Busuanga Island Electric Cooperative, Inc. (BISELCO). The National Electrification Administration (NEA) contingent headed by Administrator Emmanuel P. Juaneza graced the events last 10-11 June 2022.
First on the list is the inauguration of BISELCO’s Member-Consumer-Owners (MCOs) Building in Barangay Poblacion 6, Coron, Palawan. Administrator Juaneza applauded BISELCO for steadily taking reform initiatives in the shared aspiration of empowering the MCOs.
On the same day, the Administrator and BISELCO General Manager Ruth L. Fortes led the ceremonial energization of 100 households in Barangay Tara under the Municipality of Coron. In his speech, Administrator Juaneza thanked BISELCO for being a solid partner of the government in forging socio-economic change in the country through Rural Electrification.
He acknowledged the assistance of the Provincial Government of Palawan and the National Power Corporation (NPC) in providing electricity to Barangay Tara. "I would like to commend the initiative of the NPC in providing necessary assistance for the installation of generator sets and construction of distribution lines and, of course, the Provincial Government of Palawan for funding the said distribution lines under the Village Electrification Program," the NEA Chief said.
The Administrator likewise attended the turn-over ceremony of Portable Solar Home System units at Sitio Depelenged in Busuanga on 11 June 2022. Sixty-two (62) households were able to receive the Solar Home System units under the Total Electrification Program 2 (TEP 2) of the Department of Energy (DOE). Administrator Juaneza stated that this project is a bold step of transitioning from conventional to renewable energy to provide efficient, reliable, safe and affordable electricity supply.
"Certainly, BISELCO has unfailingly kept its commitment of being a dependable and consumer-oriented power provider that the MCOs can rely on," said the Administrator.
Administrator Juaneza also proclaimed Mr. Segundo E. Aguilar as the elected District 4 representative. Mr. Aguilar will be serving his second term as member of the BISELCO Board of Directors. ###
