00:00 Do you feel the rise of your electric bill?

00:04 We will talk about that with ERC Commissioner Catherine Maceda.

00:08 Good morning and welcome to Balitang Hali, ma'am.

00:11 Good afternoon. Oh, it's still morning, right?

00:15 Yes.

00:16 Is this 10 cent per kilowatt hour continuously increasing the transmission charge or is it still possible to decrease it?

00:24 As for the transmission charge, it is still under the rate reception that we are calling for now.

00:33 The commission has not yet been able to adopt a final determination.

00:38 The process is still ongoing on how much we will allow our transmission network provider to pay for what we call the fourth regulatory period.

00:52 We expect that our decision will be released by the end of June up to July.

00:59 Okay. But is it going up or down?

01:01 Well, we are hoping that it will go down because we are looking at the weighted average cost of capital

01:12 where the ERC will apply is lower than the previous time.

01:19 We should remember that everyone is looking at that, including the new capital expenditures,

01:25 the expenses, whether there are additional projects or not.

01:29 Everyone is looking at that.

01:31 Okay. We will wait for that and pray that it will go down.

01:34 But what can you say about the alternative that some electric cooperatives are studying

01:39 that allows the installment of paying the electric bill?

01:44 Yes ma'am. Actually, especially now because the electricity bill is rising in the past few weeks because of yellow and red alert.

01:58 The ERC has also told the electric cooperatives, distribution utilities to be cautious in cutting and paying the electricity bill

02:10 because it is suddenly rising.

02:13 Now, the electric cooperatives are very positive that they are receiving the ERC's recommendations.

02:23 Of course, we are always reminding them not to be too fast on the draw because in our Magna Carta for Residential Consumers,

02:34 they cannot just cut the electricity supply.

02:39 There are notification triggers that are needed.

02:43 Okay. Thank you very much ma'am for the time you gave us in the latest news.
