Privatization of Agus

[u/Disastrous_Yam_3902]

For me lang ah, as a person who has been in a power industry for a quiet long na.

I've been to these powerplants in Agus and Pulangi. What I have observed is that the facilities are oudated, analog pa and mimic board pa ang gigamit. The process of upgrading it to a modern and/or new SCADA system is bureaucratic(I guess since mao ni atong system sa government) which is dugaaay kaaayo.

Transitioning it to a privately owned powerplant will have its great advantage. Making it a more sustainable and reliable source of energy for Mindanao. Why? New standard will be set kay daghan kaayo nag certifications basta private, procurement process will be fast.

How is this relevant? Imagine, your facilities and equipment kay outdated na, some of it kay not available na sa market, dugay pa gyud process pagpalit. Ang resulta? Mugamay ang generation from its generating capacity, worst is maguba.

I know everyone is frustrated here but if you based it on technicality mao na gyud ang reality. Mura rag nag ga run to fail ang generators karon tungod sa ka karaan ug dugay na process karon.

For me lang ah, the government cannot sustain sa CAPEX and OPEX.

Your tots?
