Dipolog house and lot for sale
ElectricityThe electricity to provide power to your Dipolog house and lot will be supplied from overhead power line and one thing you will notice is the poles are mot very high with the result that the power lines sag and can be snagged by high sided commercial vehicles. I have seen this happen even in the centre of Dipolog city. I am not sure why the lines are not placed on higher poles which in addition to keeping them clear of traffic might also reduce illegal connections. I can understand that laying cables underground might not be an option due to frequent flooding.
Compared to the rest of the Philippines, the cost of electricity in Mindaneao at the moment is much lower as over %0% of the power is supplied by hydro and geothermal power power stations, but this is set to change as there is talk of privatising these aging supply sources.
For some reason the Government seems to be restricting the use of solar power despite the Philippine Solar Power Alliance (PSPA), urging the National Renewable Energy Board (NREB) to increase to 230 megawatts the total allowed capacity of the solar energy facilities that will be put up in the country over the next three years. NREB's initial proposal was only 100 MW.
According to the PSPA, government data showed that there are 44 solar power projects awaiting approval for their service contracts. These projects can generate a combined 420 MW should their contracts be approved. A large number of them will be located at Mindanao, specifically in Davao, Zamboanga, Misamis and Cagayan de Oro.
Many people who own property discover that some high load appliances do not work due to low voltage supply and have to purchase or rent transformers to resolve the situation. If more power sources were feeding the grid this would not be necessary.
