Meralco rates down in January

The Philippine Star

January 14, 2025

Power utility giant Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) is lowering its power rate by P0.2189 per kilowatt-hour this month, bringing the overall rate to P11.7428 kWh from December's P11.9617 per kWh.

- By BRIX LELIS

This adjustment, which ends a two-month rate hike, translates to a reduction of around P44 in the total electricity bill for typical residential customers consuming 200 kWh.

At a press conference yesterday, Meralco spokesman Joe Zaldarriaga said the downward adjustment was primarily due to the reduction in generation costs, along with a slight drop in transmission and other charges.
