Powering Valenzuela City's increased COVID-19 response


Sustaining  continued support to the government and private sector’s fight against COVID-19, Meralco energizes the new DPWH-sponsored Quarantine Facility housed at ArkongBato National High School in Valenzuela City.  Twelve container vans were repurposed and converted into 44 air conditioned rooms, two (2) nurses' stations, one (1) radiology room, and one (1) x-ray room for this facility. Each of the 44 rooms has a hospital bed, a table, a chair, and a private comfort room. Meralco’s energization project augmented this development with the installation of a new metering facility, one (1) concrete pole, and two (2) 75-kVA Distribution transformers. The ArkongBato Quarantine Facility is one of the many vital hospitals and COVID-19 treatment and isolation centers in the Meralco franchise area that are given the highest priority in terms of delivery of safe, adequate, and reliable supply of electricity.
