What happened
Prime Infra acquired a 60% stake in First Gen’s natural gas assets last year.

The auction seeks to secure 3,840 megawatts of natural gas-fired generation capacity.

Why it matters
The prequalification process identifies major power producers, including Prime Infra and LNGPH, as participants in a large-scale government auction for generation capacity. Prime Infra plans to offer 2,520 MW from four power plants, while LNGPH seeks capacity from facilities in Batangas and Iloilo.
