I think The Manila Times’ research team may have overlooked one important detail in Meralco’s power investments in the country. Meralco, in collaboration with other power industry players, is putting up at least two power plants in Luzon, the one in Mauban, Quezon and the other one being Meralco PowerGen’s RP Energy in Subic, Zambales, which was slapped by a Writ of Kalikasan in 2012. Which makes me wonder: where are those self-proclaimed environmentalists who stopped the construction of RPE now that the country is having a power crisis?
