Meralco to roll out new substation projects to support Ayala Land developments

AT A GLANCE

At present, Meralco has six existing substation facilities that have been serving the suite of assets under Ayala Land; and these facilities ensure the seamless provision of electricity services in these estates.

Power utility giant Manila Electric Company (Meralco) will cough up fresh investments for the construction of new substations that will support the real estate buildout of Ayala Land Inc.

According to the power firm, the major projects it will be pursuing for the Ayala firm will be substations to be sited at the Circuit Makati and Parklinks Estate which straddles the cities of Quezon and Pasig.

“The power distributor has laid down plans to boost infrastructure support to Ayala Land’s upcoming developments,” Meralco stated.

Meralco Senior Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer Ferdinand O. Geluz further conveyed that their long standing tie-up with Ayala Land “resulted in many successful endeavors over the years” – as electricity service is one of the key components that will define the success of property developments.

He emphasized that “the upcoming projects involving the construction of substations, Ayala Land will enable us to fulfill our commitment in helping our communities grow by providing reliable and adequate electric service to more customers.”

In their arrangement, the power firm noted that Ayala Land typically “provides a substation lot provision for its developments, allowing Meralco to energize projects in an efficient and timely manner.”

On the part of Ayala Land, company President and CEO Anna Ma. Margarita Dy said “I cannot overemphasize the importance of Meralco to our commitments to our customers – whether these are communities that are starting or communities that are already thriving.”

She asserted that having a reliable electricity service partner in their real estate developments contributed greatly for them to fulfill their promise of top-tier services to their property occupants and customers.
