A RED alert in the Luzon grid has been lifted, the National Grid Corp. of the Philippines (NGCP) said on Friday.

In its advisory, the NGCP said the alert was lifted at 4:10 p.m. A yellow alert will be up from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Available capacity is at 10,841 megawatts (MW) while peak demand is at 10,132 MW.

The NGCP declares a red alert when contingency reserves reach zero which could lead to power outages in the grid.

A yellow alert is raised when reserves are less than the capacity of the biggest plant in the grid which is 647 MW for Luzon. JORDEENE B. LAGARE
