Background
Sibuguey power station is a 100-MW mine-to-mouth coal-fired power station proposed by Philippine National Oil Company (PNOC) in Zamboanga Sibugay. The plant would cost $200 million. Initial steps towards permitting were taken in 2011. PNOC announced the project in January 2012; the plant would be powered by coal from PNOC's nearby Malangas coal mines, which are also currently under development, expected to be in full production by 2015.[1][2][3]
In August 2012, PNOC received an 18-year extension to its contract to mine coal at Malangas; the company stated at that time that it planned to build the coal plant by 2015.[4] Since then, no additional information on the project is available, and it appears to be abandoned.
