Empowering Bacolod Communities: Negros Power’s Innovative Programs [ PaKAPe Program ]
In the vibrant city of Bacolod, Negros Power has embarked on a transformative journey to empower local communities through its groundbreaking “PaKAPe Program.” This initiative fosters open dialogue and collaboration between barangay officials and residents, ensuring that every voice is heard and every concern addressed.
The Heart of PaKAPe Program: Open Communication for Better Service
At the core of PaKAPe lies a simple yet powerful principle: open communication. By engaging with barangay officials and residents directly, Negros Power ensures that community bonds are strengthened while leading to more reliable and safe electricity services.“We believe that open communication is key to addressing our communities’ needs,” emphasizes Engr. Bailey del Castillo, Chief Operations Officer at Negros Power. “Through PaKAPe, we work together to ensure everyone can access reliable power.”For consumers like those in Brgy Taculing, this means fewer outages during critical moments like cooking dinner or studying late at night for their children.
Why It’s Needed:
Open communication helps identify specific community needs early on, allowing for tailored solutions that address real issues rather than generic problems. This approach builds trust between Negros Power and the community by showing a genuine interest in their well-being.
BReaD: Data-Driven Solutions for Safer Communities [ PaKAPe Program ]
One innovative component of PaKAPe is the “BReaD” (Barangay Reassessment Drive) program. By gathering data on electrical demand across barangays:
1. Identifying Needs: Areas requiring upgrades or maintenance are pinpointed before they become significant issues.
2. Enhanced Safety: Regular checks ensure home safety standards are met.
3. Efficient Budgeting: Resources are allocated efficiently based on actual needs.
This proactive approach benefits consumers by reducing unexpected power cuts and ensuring their homes are safer.” For us at home,” explains a resident from Brgy Taculing,” knowing that our electrical system is regularly checked gives us peace of mind.”Moreover, BReaD supports budget planning by determining necessary funds for electricity usage and unmetered facility connections—ensuring resources are allocated where they’re most needed.
Why It’s Needed:
Data-driven assessments help prevent potential hazards before they occur. By identifying areas needing maintenance early on, BReaD ensures safety standards remain high while optimizing resource allocation—making electricity services more sustainable over time.
BELT: Empowering Local Electricians [ PaKAPe Program ]
Negros Power’s collaboration with TESDA (Technical Education and Skills Development Authority) has led to another impactful initiative—the “BELT” (Barangay Electrician Livelihood Training) program. By equipping barangay personnel with essential skills:
1. Safety First: Poor wiring or misuse accidents can be significantly reduced.
2. Community Capacity Building: Trained electricians address local issues promptly without waiting for external assistance.
3. Streamlined Services: New applications are processed more efficiently thanks to competent local support.“This training was invaluable,” notes participants from BELT.”We now have skilled hands on deck who understand how crucial it is for preventing accidents.”For families relying on these services daily—having trusted electricians nearby means quicker solutions when emergencies arise.
Why It’s Needed:
Trained local electricians provide immediate support during emergencies, reducing response times significantly, which can be lifesaving in critical situations. Moreover, having skilled personnel locally fosters self-sufficiency within communities, empowering them with the knowledge needed to maintain safe electrical systems independently.
Red Zones: Protecting Fire-Prone Areas Together [ PaKAPe Program ]
In partnership with BFP (Bureau of Fire Protection), Negros Power launched its critical “Red Zones” initiative targeting fire-prone sitios within Bacolod City’s 48 barangays. By conducting awareness campaigns focused on electrical hazards:
1. Reduced Risks: Residents learn how small actions can prevent devastating fires.
2. Enhanced Safety Practices: Educating families about proper use reduces incidents significantly.
3. Compliance & Conversion: Unmetered households are encouraged towards safer metered connections under this comprehensive plan.” This initiative is vital for protecting our communities from fires caused by poor handling or misuse of electricity,” highlights representatives from BFP.”By working together effectively through these educational campaigns, residents become more informed regarding the associated risks, reducing incidents significantly.”
Why It’s Needed:
Educational campaigns under Red Zones are crucial in raising awareness about potential fire hazards and helping residents take preventive measures. These efforts not only save lives but also protect property, making neighborhoods safer places overall.
Conclusion
Negros Power’s commitment extends beyond providing power; it empowers communities through education-driven initiatives like BELT & Red Zones alongside data-driven assessments via BReaD under its overarching PaKAPe framework.
