PacificLight Power Pte. Ltd., controlled by Meralco PowerGen Corp., is studying putting up a solar plant in Indonesia that will supply power to Singapore via an undersea cable, a company executive said over the weekend.
MGen, the power arm of Manila Electric Co., holds a combined direct and indirect interest of 58 percent in PacificLight.
“Hopefully, we will be able to get the export permit from the Indonesian government. It is very meticulous because you are passing through cross border,” Azurin said.“The most difficult part is the permit from the Indonesian government to export because not all governments would agree to export their power,” Azurin said.
PacificLight announced in 2021 it forged a strategic partnership with Medco Power Indonesia and Gallant Venture for the development of a solar PV project to import solar power from Bulan Island to Singapore.
