The Senate committee on energy will conduct an inquiry into the apprehensions raised by the National Transmission Corp. (Transco) that China may be able to remotely shut down significant portions of the country’s power infrastructure.
The concern was raised during the deliberations on the proposed budget of the Department of Energy (DOE) at the Senate late Tuesday, where the matter of the Chinese ownership of 40 percent of the National Grid Corp. of the Philippines (NGCP) was tackled by senators.
