Meralco to charge higher rates in December

[macsd]

^

kaya PHp4.15 inclusive na daw ng tax.

Yan ang kaplastican ng gobierno. Bulag na nga ang ahencia or in cahoots with the power sector, tapos kikita pa sila sa VAT. Masmalaki ang electric bill, cyempre masmalaki ang VAT. Tapos sasabihin ng gobierno they are talking to meralco for gradual increase to minimize the impact when they can simply make power VAT free yet this packing goverment don't want to do it cause they also want to take the big piece of the pie.

Could buying and using an electric generator be more cost-effective than relying on meralco?

So another 2-3k additional from our recent bill which meron ng increase...nice.

**** you meralco, saan na yun refund namin?

Got our bill yesterday. For our consumption of 1100, it jumped from 12k to 16k...4k ang tinaas.

OT lang.....

Pagnakalagay sa meralco contract for secondary metering applied load is 530kw and then contracted capacity is 371kw. Ung rating ba ng transformer from meralco is 500kva? sa plan kasi 750kva ang nakalagay.

11000 siguro ito instead of 1100?
Expected ko na 500 ang increase for every 2500 plust rate of increase.

Initially, 500 to 1000 ang increase sa kuryente, 200 sa gasul, plus 200 sa tubig, fuel sa car mga 1k! Daming additional expenses by next year.

btw, why do you think having a nuclear power plant will solve the power rate hikes? Baka naman sumabay ang nuclear plant sa "Down for Maintenance" <wink wink nudge nudge>

Possible na ma-solve pero ang problema yung mga namamahala at mga politikong ginagawang gatasan ang kita ng meralco at iba pang power producers.

Kailangan natin yung mga may kunsensyang namumuno para ma-solve ang mga problemang ganito.

Gokongwei bought 27percent of meralco. Seems like state is losing control to manage and regulate the utilities here. More fun in the philippines.

Nuclear power plant is an old technology. Dont underestimate pinoys with something na nadevelop na and functioning in the 60s or 70s unless we are not open to change.

I want my refund!!!

Supreme Court stops Meralco's power rate hike
ANC – 25 minutes ago

The Supreme Court has temporarily stopped the Manila Electric Company (Meralco)'s P4.15 power rate hike on Monday.

The high court issued a 60-day temporary restraining order (TRO) after two petitions were filed against the rate increase.

The Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) has earlier approved Meralco's proposal to implement the rate hike in three tranches. The ERC later backtracked on its approval of the staggered power rate hike for February and March.

The first tranche of P2.41 per kilowatt hour has already been implemented in December. This was supposed to be followed by a P1.21 per kilowatt hour increase in February and P0.53 per kilowatt hour hike in March. Some groups consider this the "highest electricity rate in [Philippine] history."

Meralco was previously prompted to propose an increase in their generation charge after Luzon's largest power supplier, the Malampaya oil and gas project, was closed for maintenance until December 10. The maintenance shutdown has reportedly forced Metro Manila's lone power distributor to buy more expensive diesel for its plants.

The Department of Energy (DOE) and the Senate Energy Committee are currently investigating a "possible collusion" between power companies .

Energy Sec. Jericho Petilla said they are also preparing measures to prevent another possible power price hike in Summer.

totoo kaya na walang increase o dagdag kita ang meralco? lagi nilang sinasabi na 0 increase ung distribution charge nila. Palagi sa generation charge na beyond their control.
