Davao Light and Power Company

Davao Light and Power Co., Inc. (Davao Light) hits around 95% of its total target of 3,868 sitios to be energized within its franchise area covering Davao City, Panabo City, and the Municipalities of Carmen, Dujali and Sto. Tomas under Sitio Electrification Program (SEP).

As of September this year, 113 more sitios were newly energized, and 14 are ongoing and hopefully will be completed by the end of the year.

In partnership with the City Government of Davao and Department of Education Region XI, the Davao-based Aboitiz business units are providing Davaoeños with more access to COVID-19 vaccines by conducting a mass vaccination drive across the three congressional districts of Davao City from October to November 2021.

A new 69 kV sub-transmission line was recently built and completed by Davao Light and Power Co., Inc. (Davao Light) to improve power quality and reliability in the southern areas of Davao City specifically, in Maa, Ecoland, Matina, Bangkal, and Ulas.

Sub-transmission lines are power lines that transmit power from the grid to the distribution substations. With voltages ranging from 69 kV to 138 kV, these facilities distribute substantial amounts of power to different areas across the franchise.

Davao Light was awarded the Safety Seal Certification from the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Region XI, recognizing the company’s compliance with the minimum public health standards set by the government.
