The Sikatuna Solar Power Plant, a 45-megawatt (MW) renewable energy project, marked its groundbreaking April 27, 2025, in Bohol, following the recent launch of the 8.4 MWac Tagbilaran-Baclayon Solar Power Plant.
Managed by Bohol Solar Energy Inc. (BSEI), the facility spans 454,636 square meters in Can-agong and Bahay-Bahay, Sikatuna, and will generate 37.884 MWac.
The project includes key components such as a substation, photovoltaic modules area, hazardous waste storage, and roadways. It aims to boost local jobs, reduce emissions, enhance energy security, and support agricultural infrastructure through irrigation systems.
