Furukawa Electric Co., Ltd. and S.L. Development Construction Corporation have secured a submarine power transmission project in the Philippines for a total of approximately JPY4.3 billion (US$35.4 million).

The project was awarded by the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines, a corporation in charge of operating, maintaining, and developing the Philippines's state-owned power grid. Delivery and completion of the cable system are scheduled for 2023.

The transmission project will connect the Cebu Substation and Lapulapu Substation in Visayas. Furukawa Electric will supply 230kV AC XLPE-insulated 1600 mm2 triple-core submarine cable and cable temperature and load monitoring system. The new submarine power transmission will reinforce power transmission capacity and maintain the continuous transmission of power towards the major loads centers in Mandaue and Mactan even during N-1 contingency condition.
