The yellow alert raised over the Visayas grid on Friday, July 24, has been lifted.
The National Grid Corporation of the Philippines said this was effective 1 p.m.
So far, available capacity was at 2,522 MW.
Demand was pegged at 2,170 MW.
The NGCP said a yellow alert is issued when the operating margin is insufficient to meet the transmission grid's contingency requirement.
The NGCP earlier in the day announced the raising of the yellow alert over the grid from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. due to the unavailability of Visayas' large coal plants TVI 1 & 2 and the shutdown of CEDC 1.
Available capacity then was pegged at 2,682 MW while peak demand was at 2,453 MW.
The NGCP said then that three plants were on forced outage in July while three plants have been in the same status since June, seven plants since May, one plant since March, three plants since 2025, three plants since 2024, two plants since 2023, and one plant since 2021.
Sixteen plants were running on derated capacities at that time, for a total of 763.5 MW unavailable to the grid, the NGCP said.
