A state of calamity was declared in the province on April 18 due to power outages of 16-20 hours every day. In early April,“Patuloy po tayong humihiling sa mga National Government Agencies na may kapangyarihan patungkol sa kuryente at mga kinauukulan, gaya ng nauna nating naipadalang sulat kay Pangulong Bongbong Marcos upang pumagitna sa ating laban na maresolba ang krisis ng kuryente sa ating lalawigan,” Occidental Mindoro Gov. Eduardo Gadiano said on April 19.
Because of a delay in the completion of the CSP, he said the Energy Regulatory Commission meted OMECO a penalty to pay 50% of the amount of the subsidy due to OMCPC, a move OMECO contested. However, the NPC denied this request, citing funding deficits brought about by the fuel price hikes. It also said that eight of its power barges were fully utilized in other provinces and that pulling one out would disrupt power in its respective area.
The DOE also said it “issued a Certification of Exemption from the conduct of CPS in the procurement of electricity supply to augment the current power capacity being supplied by OMCPC.”
