ANTIPOLO CITY, Rizal- A Chinese energy company will build an P800-million power plant in this city to help alleviate the country’s dependence on high-cost power sources as well as address the global problem of climate change, company officials said.
ANTIPOLO CITY, Rizal- The Cainta Municipal Government and the Victor Potenciano Medical Center (VPMC) will be holding a bloodletting activity at the Cainta People’s Center near the municipal hall complex on May 9, Wednesday.


Cemex regional president for Asia Joaquin Miguel Estrada said the Cemex Group had earlier signed a power supply agreement with Sinoma Energy Conservation Ltd. of China for the construction of the waste heat-to-energy facility this year.
In a memorandum of agreement between the Cainta municipal government and the Victor Potenciano Medical Center, 30 out of every 100 bags of donated blood will go to the local government unit (LGU). According to Cainta Tourism and Information Officer Richard Melendez however, the LGU’s share of blood donations will be stored at the VPMC since they do not have refrigerators to store the blood.


Estrada said Cemex is a company that wants to achieve a corporate objective of lower operational costs, and also pushing an agenda to lower the country's carbon footprint. “The project is proof positive of our commitment to sustainable development,” he said.
“The 30 bags of blood per 100 donations will be for the local government, especially for its citizens who cannot afford to purchase from commercial bloodbanks,” he said. This is done in order to ensure that the municipal government will have a supply of blood for its local citizens.


He explained that under the contract signed in Beijing, China early this year, Sinoma will design, build, operate and manage the six-megawatt power plant that uses a technology converting waste heat from the cement plant into usable electricity.
Donors will also be screened for diseases and other complications during the bloodletting, and are advised to have enough sleep before the activity itself.
 
Estrada said the power plant project is not only the first waste heat recovery investment undertaking, which cooperates with Cemex Group, but also the first exploration of Chinese corporation investing in the construction of waste heat recovery power station overseas.
 
He said the Antipolo project is also a first for Sinoma outside China, with prospects of replicating it elsewhere in the world.
 
Cemex Philippines president Pedro Palomino said the P800-million power plant is also designed to capture excess heat from Solid Cement factory here, which has been experiencing power service interruptions over the years.
 
Palomino said the power plant project is consistent with its policy of pursuing expansion plans within the parameters of sustainable development.
