DAVAO CITY (July 29) – Davao Light and Power Company Inc. (DLPC) officially launched its 138 kV ERA Line 2 project on Monday to help meet the city’s growing energy needs.
The project features a 25-kilometer sub-transmission line connecting the DLPC Substation on J.P. Laurel Avenue to the NGCP-Davao Substation in Mintal.
