THE National Grid Corp. of the Philippines (NGCP) lowered its red alert status in the Luzon grid to yellow.

In its latest advisory, the yellow alert was raised at 3 p.m. and would stay until 9 p.m.

Available capacity is at 10,749 megawatts (MW) while peak demand is at 10,300 MW.

The NGCP defines red alert as a system condition when there is zero ancillary service (AS) or a generation deficiency exists.

A yellow alert is a system condition in which the reserves are less than the capacity of the biggest plant online, which is 647 MW for Luzon.
