Hedcor to put up Hydro Electric Plant in BenguetHedcor Inc, a subsidiary of Aboitiz Power Corp, has announced plans to put up a total of 120 MW of hydro electric energy power plants in the region of Benguet. The 120 MW energy will be milked from 4 proposed separate hydro electric power plant complexes

They are already conducting feasibility studies in the area and expect to start permit application within 2 years time. Add another two years to that timeframe to construct the plant and you would get the theoretical time line for their plants to begin operations.

Hedcor already owns the 175 MW Ambuklao-Binga Hydro Electric power plant in Benguet along with 13 other mini-hydro electric power plants. Hedcor operates about 19 hydropower plants with a total installed capacity of 113 MW.
