Meralco Slaps Consumers with Increased Power Rate

The Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) has granted Manila Electric Company (Meralco) an authority to implement a higher distribution rate effective July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2013.

In a disclosure with the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) Friday, Meralco said it received the ERC Order on the new distribution rate earlier in the day.

The provisional authority increased the electric company’s maximum average price (MAP) to P1.6303 per kWh, from the 2012 regulatory year (RY) MAP of P1.6012 per kWh for new distribution, supply and metering charges.

In 2011, Meralco’s MAP stood at a higher P1.6464 per kWh.

The adjustment in the electric company’s MAP was made based on ERC’s performance-based regulation (PBR), which the Commission conducts annually.

Under the PBR, ERC checks on all private distribution utilities’ (DUs) rates, public hearings and performance against mandated technical and customer service standards.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
