About us

SURSECO II was organized as a private, non-stock, non-profit membership and service-oriented cooperative on September 10, 1979 thru the effort of the assemblyman and at the same time the Deputy Minister of State for Energy, Jose “Popit” Puyat, Jr.. It was registered as the 115th electric cooperative in the country.

More About Us

The start of SURSECO II operations was the dawn of the era of electrification in the province. As part of its initial energization program, SURSECO II took over the franchise of four (4) existing municipal power systems operating within their area of jurisdiction. Taken over were the electric systems of Tandag, Tago, Marihatag, and Carrascal.

Of the four electric systems bought by SURSECO II, only Tandag was privately owned. The franchise of the said electric system was formerly held by the Tandag Electric and Telephone Company (TETCO), a corporation owned by the Serra-Ty family. The other three electric systems belonged to the municipal governments.

At the time the coop acquired these power-generating assets, SURSECO II became operational through the re-energization of the towns of Tandag, Marihatag, Tago, and Carrascal.

In its initial state of operation, the coop then had 1,268 member-consumers. The operation was projected at a 24-hour operation by synchronizing the generating sets with a combined capacity of 325 kilowatts. This was admittedly a period of survival, as the construction of backbone lines and lateral lines was simultaneously undertaken.

In spite of these intervening factors, Engr. Cunanan judiciously negotiated the shipping of one (1) unit 3.75 MVA power transformer from a sister coop, Aklan Electric Cooperative (AKELCO), and it was installed at the town of Madrid, located some 70 kilometers north of Tandag. Barely a year after its installation, on November 10, 1983, the Carrascal, Cantilan, Madrid, Carmen, and Lanuza (CARCANMADCARLAN) area was energized, and power was supplied by the National Power Corporation (NPC).
