ENERGY INVESTEMENTS
Investments in the energy sector went full stream ahead last week capped by the successful auction of
the 360-megawatt Magat hydroelectric power plant in Ramon, Isabela Province. In an earlier development,
United States energy group Mirant Corp, sold its power assets in the Philippines for $3.42 billion to a
consortium of The Tokyo Electric Power Co. and Marubeni Corp. of Japan.
PNOC Energy Development Corporation, the geothermal producers’ subsidiary of state owned
Philippines National Oil Co., made an impressive record of its successful debut, having listed 5.2 billion in
primary and secondary shares and generating up to P16.7 billion proceed to the state coffers.
Investor’s interest in Philippine energy assets having reached a new peak has showed picture different
from the situation two years ago when investors were reluctant to invest on energy projects, especially in the
power sector, because of political and economic uncertainties and the bureaucratic maze evident in
government auctions.
Electricity demand in the Philippines will continue to grow as long as the economy expands
consistently at a faster pace. Because of the power sectors being directly liked to production, the power sector
is one of the critical components of economic growth. It is important therefore, for the government to ensure
investments in the power sector to achieve the government’s goal of reducing power cost in the country.
Questions:
1. How much was the bid for:
a. Magat Power Plant? The Magat power plant is the second facility successfully bid out by PSALM
this year as it duplicated the success of the 112-MW Pantabangan – Masiway Powe complex
auctioned off in September.
b. Mirant Power Plant?
3. What is the significance of the PNOC-Energy Development Corporation’s initial public offering to
increase from P3.20 share to P4.55 per share?
