Aug. transmission rates up as cost of power reserves rises
Business World Philippines
|September 18, 2025
POWER CONSUMERS will have to pay higher transmission charges in their electricity bills this month, due to increased cost of power reserves, the National Grid Corp. of the Philippines (NGCP) said.
-
"The reason for the increase is mainly due to the increase on the AS (ancillary services) rates, particularly from the reserve market," Julius Ryan D. Datingaling, head of business and regulatory development at NGCP, said at a briefing on Wednesday.
The overall rate for August, which will appear in September electricity bills, climbed by 7.09% to P1.4171 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) from P1.3233 per kWh in July.
AS charges, or power reserves deployed by grid operators to support the transmission of power and to maintain reliable operations, rose by 13.4% to P0.6659 per kWh from P0.5872 per kWh a month earlier.
Mr. Datingaling said the increase in AS rates was due to spot quantity, or the amount of reserve capacity traded in the reserve market.
