Residents worry about floating solar farm on Caliraya Lake

A FLOATING solar farm on Caliraya Lake in Lumban, Laguna, that aims to produce 250 megawatts (MW) of power for the national grid has stirred concern from establishments in the area and even from supporters of renewable energy.

Nestled within the municipalities of Lumban, Cavinti, and Kalayaan in Laguna province, Lake Caliraya is a man-made water reservoir that came into existence following the construction of Caliraya Dam, which generates hydroelectric power for the Southern Luzon grid.
