00:00 The National Grid Corporation of the Philippines responded after being blamed by President Marcos for the power outage in Western Visayas.

00:08 But according to the Energy Regulatory Commission, it was not only the NGCP that was at fault.

00:13 J.P. Soriano was there.

00:15 [Music]

00:31 Lisa De Malanta, the chairperson of the ERC, said, "Besides the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines, the NGCP, the operators of the power plant may also be responsible."

00:43 The power plant may be punished and fined.

00:47 The fine is up to Php 50 million per power failure.

00:51 But it still depends on the results of the investigation.

00:54 We cannot just excuse the plants.

00:59 Because in those six plants, are there any that did not maintain the standards?

01:05 For example, are there any that opened earlier than required under the grid code?

01:11 If so, there is a penalty.

01:14 Not just the NGCP, if we can see that it did not do its job.

01:21 We are still trying to get the Palm Conception Power Corporation and Panay Energy Development Corporation coal power plant.

01:29 Yesterday, President Bongbong Marcos said that the NGCP is responsible for the power outage in Western Visayas.

01:38 According to the NGCP, they obtained the information from the Department of Energy that they are being punished even though the incident is still being investigated.

01:51 But the NGCP is adamant that it is time to finish the independent and objective assessment of their system data.

01:59 They also claim that the transmission system is in accordance with the protocol.

02:04 Meanwhile, the ERC said that the process of resetting the NGCP rates is already rolling out.

02:11 Or the price of the percentage of the power consumption.

02:15 NGCP is running the operation to ensure that the system of transmission of power from the plants to the distribution utilities is stable.

02:26 Like Meralco.

02:27 If we can do the reset, particularly for the fifth regulatory period all the way to 2027,

02:36 the NGCP will have more confidence to stay on the grid because we will give it an authority to collect for the grid.

02:48 The affected said that they are hoping that this will not happen again.

02:53 I see that the people are being punished. They are being banned out day after day.

02:59 They are late in informing the people.

03:03 I don't think that this will affect us.

03:07 We will try to go home because there is a curfew.
