What Is Bohol Backbone Transmission Project (BBTP)?

The P1.4-billion Bohol Backbone Transmission Project (BBTP) is not financially viable, according to initial evaluation and review of the Central Visayas office of the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA 7).

Gov. Erico Aumentado however was quick to the rescue. He gave a 19-point justification on top of the two-megawatt (MW) projected load of the Panglao Bohol International Airport Development Project (PBIADP).

In her letter to Aumentado, NEDA Region 7 Director Marlene Rodriguez had said the backbone power transmission project “is not financially viable using a minimum load forecast scenario that already includes the 2-MW projected load” of the Panglao airport.

“In view of this, may we know from your preliminary discussions with investors, the eco-tourism facilities and structures to be built in the province that would require substantial power load,” she wrote.

In reply, the governor emphasized his unqualified support to the BBTP proposed by the National Transmission Corp. (TransCo) for funding under its corporate internal cash generation (ICG) for the reason that the project can improve the efficiency and reliability of the present power for the province.

“Moreover, the project implementation can help pump-prime the economy and lay down the fundamentals to prevent a power shortage in Bohol once the PBIA will be completed and operational by the last quarter of 2010,” he wrote back.

He said the transmission line will provide also the necessary fiber optics for Bohol ’s Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and participation in the booming call centers industry.
