00:00Following the President's Directive for More Accessible Electricity for Filipino,

00:044Peace members can now expect an easier process for obtaining cheap electricity.

00:10Rod Lagusa does more.

00:13Making it easier for 4Peace members to access cheaper electricity.

00:17This is what the Department of Energy is now pursuing through its Lifeline Rates Program.

00:22This provides discounts or lower electricity rates for households with very low power consumption.

00:27The DOA is coordinating with the Energy Regulatory Commission and the Department of Social Welfare and Development

00:32to streamline the process of qualifying for the program following the President's Directive.

00:37One thing that I apply is to go to electric coffee, fill up the course,

00:42and submit it to the Katerina of the Force that will still validate the ECL and the declarations.

00:50So what we do now, hopefully when all the policies are in place,

00:55she said that if you're a 4Peace member, consume about 50 kilowatt hours per month,

01:02and are a customer of an electric cooperative, you qualify.

01:06If so, the Secretary said a 4Peace member is entitled to a 100% discount or free electricity anywhere in the Philippines.

01:13The Secretary explained that the name of the 4Peace member must also be the same name registered with the electric cooperative.

01:19We will have data sharing of the electric cooperative.

01:25For those whose electricity account with electric cooperative is not under their name,

01:42they will need to submit the required documents.

01:44The secretary clarified that the only difference is the process.

01:47It is much easier when the porpoise member is the one registered with Electric Cooperative.

01:51Rod Lagused from the National TV Network for a new and better Philippines.
