ZAMBOANGA CITY, Philippines – The Alcantara Group is poised to secure local approval for its plan to put up a P12-billion 100-megawatt coal-fired power plant in the eastern part of Zamboanga City following positive results of the initial series of public consultation by government agencies.
Company officials said the initial series of consultation of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources in Zamboanga elicited no opposition to the plan of San Ramon Power Corporation, a subsidiary of the Alcantara Group, to build the 100-megawatt P12-billion coal-fired power plant in San Ramon in the eastern part of Zamboanga City.
