00:00Good evening, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao!

00:05Save more because I have more than 2 pesos in my bank account this July.

00:12That's equivalent to more than 400 pesos if the consumption of electricity is within 200 kWh in a month.

00:19Aside from the increase in the generation charge,

00:22Gil continues to increase his income from June to September.

00:27Maki Polido is on fire!

00:31From the three stores before the COVID-19 pandemic,

00:35there is only one place left for Luisa.

00:38Sales have dropped,

00:40and her income from the month of Meralco Bill is getting smaller,

00:43to about 5,000 to 6,000 pesos.

00:45Because the consumption of electricity is too high.

00:48Even for households,

00:50the bill will increase because of the increase of 2 pesos and 15 centavos per kilowatt hour

00:55in the Meralco bill this July.

00:56The biggest contribution to the increase of the generation charge

01:00is also the increase of the transmission charge,

01:03electricity bill, and others.

01:05Because of that, the total electricity rate this July increased to 11 pesos and 60 centavos per kilowatt hour

01:11from 9 pesos and 45 centavos last June.

01:15Meralco said that the June billing is decreasing

01:18because the Energy Regulatory Commission ordered that

01:20four-month installments should be stopped last June.

01:24So for the July billing,

01:26aside from the increase of the generation charge,

01:28the deferred payment of 77 centavos per kilowatt hour

01:32that will be charged to the electric bill every month from June to September will also be paid.

01:36We have a disclaimer as early as last month

01:40that when July comes,

01:42anticipate that there will be a big increase

01:46because the price of electricity will return to the previous normal level,

01:50plus the deferred cost.

01:54The electricity rates depend on your consumption of electricity.

01:58If your consumption is more than 200 kilowatt hours per month,

02:02the charge will also be higher.

02:04Electric bill will be charged an additional 430 pesos

02:08to those who consume 200 kilowatt hours per month.

02:11The consumption is more than 800 pesos for 400 kilowatt hours

02:15and more than 1,000 pesos for 500 kilowatt hours per month.

02:18Luisa will try to get closer.

02:21Even if it's low,

02:23we will continue until it stops.

02:27In August,

02:29there is hope that the electricity bill will go down

02:31because the demand for electricity is expected to go down.

02:33So the demand for electricity in the spot market may also go down.
