"This  is the first of its kind that is commercially running. It can be a prototype for other remote islands like us," said former Batanes congressman and current Education Secretary Florencio Abad. "People are now talking of putting up ice plants and storage for fish and lobsters, which are exported to Taiwan."

The power project would result in a 24-hour electricity cheap service for the entire province that is environment-friendly.


According to DBP president and chief executive officer Simon R. Paterno, the loan is part of the bank’s policy of promoting new and renewable energy that is environment-friendly yet affordable.
