                    [Title] => First Gen welcomes PEMC plan
                    [Summary] => 



First Gen Corp. has welcomed the Philippine Electricity Market Corp. (PEMC) plan to create a Visayas wholesale electricity spot market (WESM).


Peter Garrucho Jr., First Gen vice chairman and CEO, said that putting up WESM in that region would help spur competition.

"We are most supportive of that move. I think, the country has the capability to integrate the systems," Garrucho said.

Garrucho said the presence of WESM Visayas would encourage investors to construct more power facilities in that province.
