The National Power Corporation (Napocor) announced on Wednesday it will deploy to its Limasawa Diesel Power Plant (DPP) a new 300-kilowatt (kW) generating set this year and another two 300 kW gensets next year in response to the request of the Southern Leyte provincial government for the total electrification of Limasawa Island.

Southern Leyte is stepping up its preparations four years ahead of the quincentennial (500 years) of the historic first Catholic Mass in the Philippines held in Limasawa Island on Easter Sunday (March 31, 1521). This year’s celebration is the 496th anniversary of the historic event.
