The National Grid Corp. of the Philippines (NGCP) plans to complete seven major transmission projects exceeding P18 billion to improve electricity supply and reduce outages. Key projects include the Amlan-Dumaguete 138kV line at P1.9 billion, Tuguegarao-Lal-lo Magapit 230kV line at P2.4 billion, and Tuy 500/230kV Substation Stage 1, along with several others.

In 2025, NGCP upgraded 14 substations and improved voltage in various locations. Despite challenges in right-of-way and permitting, NGCP aims to complete these projects in the year and has requested support from government agencies to facilitate permit releases.
