FAQs on July 2024 Rates

1. Why did electricity rates go up this July?

Despite lower transmission and steady distribution costs, rates increased by two pesos due to higher generation charges from Wholesale Electricity Spot Market (WESM), the Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and Power Supply Agreements (PSAs). On top of this, a portion of the deferred generation charges from previous months will be applied until September 2024. This was following the Energy Regulatory Commission’s (ERC) directive to collect a portion of the June generation charges on a staggered basis from June to September 2024. This was done to help manage the impact of the increase in generation charges last month brought about by the tight supply condition in the Luzon grid.

2. How much is the rate increase this July?

With the increase of two pesos this month due to higher generation charges from Wholesale Electricity Spot Market (WESM), Independent Power Producers (IPPs), Power Supply Agreements (PSAs) and deferred generation charges from previous months (that will be applied until September 2024), this brings the overall rate for a typical household to P11.60 from the previous month’s P9.45 per kWh.
