RESIDENTIAL HOUSEHOLDS in areas served by Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) will see lower electricity bills in June as the power distributor cut power rates amid a drop in generation charges.

In a statement on Wednesday, Meralco said that electricity rates will fall by P0.1076 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) in June to P12.1552 per kWh from P12.2628 per kWh in May.

Households consuming 200 kWh will see their monthly electricity bills go down by around P22. Those consuming 300 kWh, 400 kWh, and 500 kWh will see a reduction of P32, P43, and P54 respectively.

Meralco attributed the overall rate reduction to the lower generation charge, which dropped by P0.1099 per kWh to P7.3552 per kWh.
