RESULTS OF OPERATIONS In the fourth quarter <strong>of</strong> 2006, DLPC completed its 138/69 kilovolt (kV) Don Ramon <strong>Aboitiz</strong> substation increasing transformation capacity by 200 mega-voltampere (MVA). The π286-million substation was built to improve voltage delivered to customers, improve system reliability, reduce system losses, and address the increasing demand in its franchise area, particularly in the north. In December 2006, DLPC completed a 31-kilometer fiber optic link from its ERA Substation to San Vicente Substation in Panabo at a price <strong>of</strong> π6 million. This link will provide a more robust communications link between the various substations, control centers and the company’s <strong>of</strong>fices. In preparation for increased demand, DLPC added a 14 MVA transformer to its Bajada Power Plant (BPP) and increased its capability by as much as 21%. As <strong>of</strong> December 31, 2006, the rated capacity <strong>of</strong> BPP’s 12 generators has risen to 53 MW. In February 2007, DPLC awarded Hedcor, Inc. a 12-year power supply contract to purchase from them annually, starting August 2009, with 400 million kwh <strong>of</strong> Cleanergy, <strong>Aboitiz</strong> Power’s brand <strong>of</strong> clean and renewable energy. This reiterates the company’s commitment to support the development <strong>of</strong> alternative and environmentally-friendly sources <strong>of</strong> energy. The supply contract assures DLPC customers <strong>of</strong> enough power at a time when the Mindanao grid is expected to be tight <strong>of</strong> supply. Visayan Electric Company (VECO) contributed π237 million in 2006, up by 50% from 2005. The Cebu-based utility sold 1,571 Gwhrs, up by 3.9% from the previous year. Number <strong>of</strong> customers increased by 2.4% to 282,634. In spite <strong>of</strong> its growth, system losses continued to creep down to 9.82% in 2006 from 9.90% a year ago. Peak load increased by 5.8% to 308 MW. To gain more control <strong>of</strong> its power delivery infrastructure, VECO purchased two sub-transmission assets from TransCo: the Naga-Sibonga-Dumanjug 69 kV line, and the Banilad-Mandaue 69 kV line, for a total price <strong>of</strong> π77 million. VECO has implemented various improvement projects in anticipation <strong>of</strong> the growing needs in its franchise area. Its Pakna-an substation in Mandaue has been upgraded to 50 MVA and energized in September 2006. The π30-million project involved the installation <strong>of</strong> an additional 25 MVA, 69/23 kV power transformer. To further improve system reliability, VECO is halfway through its 3-year program <strong>of</strong> upgrading its substations with the goal <strong>of</strong> having a uniform distribution system voltage <strong>of</strong> 23 kV from the present 13.8 kV. The upgrade will give the electricity provider more flexibility to source power from nearby substations as needed, increasing reliability and ensuring uninterrupted power supply. To accommodate expected locators, VECO extended its primary lines to the South Road Properties (SRP) project, which is 300 hectares <strong>of</strong> prime property on reclaimed land developed by the Cebu City government. The SRP is a Special Economic Zone expected to bring in more manufacturing, commercial, tourism, IT and other service enterprises to Cebu. ABOITIZ EQUITY VENTURES ANNUAL REPORT 2006 13 Power
