President Marcos has ordered the National Grid Corp. of the Philippines (NGCP) to 'immediately address the power crisis' in Western Visayas following the massive power blackouts in the region last week. In a statement on Tuesday, the Presidential Communications Office (PCO) said the President ordered the NGCP 'to synchronize the protection relays of transmission, generation and distribution' in the next two weeks to prevent massive blackouts. Mr. Marcos also ordered the NGCP to finish the third stage of the Cebu-Negros-Panay backbone project (CNP3), which is seen to distribute energy supply more efficiently in the region.
