MANILA, Philippines - Meralco
announced that the rate for its residential customers this May will
go down by 41-centavos per kWh, bringing it down to P8.444 per kWh.
For a typical household consuming
200 kWh, this translates to a reduction of around P82 in their
electricity bill.
The reduction was due to the
downward movement in generation, transmission, taxes, and other charges. This
month’s overall rate is lower by P1.54 per kWh compared to May 2015’s
P9.98 per kWh. It is also the lowest since January 2010, or over a period of
six years.
Meralco also offers a free text
service for its customers to stay updated on power interruptions and service
maintenance schedules.

your bill and how to stay updated thru Meralco’s text program watch the Meralco
