Pagbilao Power Station

Pagbilao Power Station

 

The Pagbilao Power Station (PPS) is a 735-MW coal-fired thermal power plant at Isla Grande in Pagbilao, Quezon Province. Consisting of two generating units (Pagbilao 1 and 2), the power plant is capable of producing a maximum of 16,800 MWh of electricity daily or over six (6) million MWh annually. Beginning operations in 1996, its output is contracted to the Philippine government under a build, operate and transfer (BOT) scheme which ends in 2025.

 

Located within PPS grounds is a 420 MW facility (Pagbilao Unit 3 Power Project) that is the result of a joint venture partnership between TeaM Energy and AboitizPower that led to the formation of Pagbilao Energy Corporation (PEC). Pagbilao 3 is a merchant plant that began operating in May 2018.
