00:00Good news and bad news. The cost of electricity in Meralco is going down this month, but there are also expected additional charges that will be passed on to its customers.
00:10And Maki Polido was able to talk.
00:1536 centavos per kilowatt hour is the cost of electricity in Meralco this October.
00:20That is equivalent to P72 less than those who consume 200 kilowatts per month.
00:26Primarily, it was the generation charges that went down due to the lower cost in the wholesale and spot market, followed by transmission.
00:3968 centavos per kilowatt hour is the cost of electricity in Meralco this October.
00:42But the Energy Regulatory Commission of Meralco allowed the customers to pay for the sale of Malampaya Consortium to First Gas plants.
00:51That is equivalent to P1 billion per month that will be divided by the customers in the next 12 months.
00:58So that P1 billion per month is equivalent to around P32 centavos per kilowatt hour that was added to the generation charge.
01:07Josephine is no longer excited even though Meralco announced a reduction in electricity bill.
01:11She also said that she is not relieved by the budget due to the small reduction in electricity bill and the fact that the price did not go back to the previous price per kilowatt hour.
01:20They will say that their price went down by a cent, but their price increase is one after another.
01:25From January to October this year, Meralco reduced electricity bill three times.
01:30But there is a net increase of P9 centavos per kilowatt hour from January and there are additional charges.
01:37If the ERC allows the customers to pay P4 billion for ancillary service or electricity reserve contracted by the NGCP, it is equivalent to P60 centavos per kilowatt hour.
01:49The National Transmission Corporation is also asking for P2 centavos as a feed-in tariff for renewable energy plants.
01:57If the additional charge of P32 centavos per kilowatt hour is included in the contract of the First Gas and Malampaya Consortium, P94 centavos per kilowatt hour is the expected additional charge for electricity.
02:09We are waiting for a cold charge, which is the remaining 70 percent of the reserve market cost that the NGCP will not charge.
02:20That's why Josephine is not hoping for an increase in electricity bills so that there will be additional expenses this Christmas.
02:27This bonus will be divided into small amounts. It will go to Meralco's payment of the bills.
