Demand Side Management in Visayas: Making It Work

As Visayas is having power problems, demand side management brings new opportunities to alleviate need for investments in new generation.

Inquirer reports...Ten major commercial establishments in Cebu let go of at least 174,847 kilowatt hours (kwH) of power from the local power grid over the past two weeks, allowing more electricity to be used by residences.

The “deloading” from the power grid was made by firms which relied on their own backup generators during periods of peak demand for electricity in Cebu.
