Clarification of News Report
We write with respect to the attached news articles posted in various online sites. In the attached news article entitled “Kepco selling PH diesel, coal assets in bid to join green campaign” posted in Inquirer.net on January 19, 2023, it was reported in part that:
“South Korea-based Korea Electric Power Corp. (Kepco) is divesting its energy assets as it continues to move forward with its net-zero goals but will remain present in the sector to explore potential investments in the renewables arena.
In a statement, Kepco said it was selling its 60-percent stake in a thermal power plant in Cebu through Kepco SPC Power Corp. and its 40-percent interest in SPC Power Corp.
. . . .
Kepco said it was currently in the second round of the sale process and received ‘high interest’ from several domestic and foreign bidders since it started in October last year. It did not divulge the names of the interested entities.
. . . .
Kepco SPC Power, a joint venture of Kepco Philippines Holdings Inc. and Cebu-based listed company SPC Power, operates the 200-megawatt coal-fired power plant in Naga City, Cebu.
SPC Power’s other existing facilities include the 22-megawatt (MW) Bohol diesel-fired plant in Tagbilaran City and the 146.6-MW Panay diesel-fired plant in Iloilo.
Prospective bidders
SPC Power is interested in acquiring Kepco’s shares in the aforementioned projects.
. . . .
Shortlisted bidders were expected to submit their final offers by the first quarter of this year, Kepco said.
‘The shortlisted bidders are currently undergoing due diligence and site visits. As the marketing process drew more than the expected interests, the potential sale process has gained further traction towards a successful closing,’ it added.
. . . .”
SPC confirms the above news report to the extent of the sale of KEPCO’s 60-percent stake in a thermal power plant in Cebu through Kepco SPC Power Corp. and its 40-percent interest in SPC Power Corp.
SPC is presently evaluating and weighing its options on the sale of KEPCO’s shares in KSPC and SPC.
