00:15Do this ma naman, yan ang hinaing ng marami sa atin

00:17kung dumarating na ang mga electric bill.

00:20Habang ilan naman sa atin, lalong nalulula

00:22dahil sa nararanasang other charges sa kanilang electric bill.

00:25Ang iba naman, sumasakit ang ulo

00:27dahil sa mga rotational brownouts sa kanilang lugar

00:30napapatanong tuloy ang marami.

00:32Ano ba ang nasa likod ng mga problemang ito?

00:34Yan ang ating hihimay.

00:38Sa tila pagdoble ng bill na kuryente,

00:40ano nga ba ang bill deposit at paano ang computation nito?

00:44Bakit mas mahal ang kuryente sa Pilipinas

00:46kaysa sa mga kalapit nating bansa sa Asia?

00:49Bukod sa aktual nating konsumo,

00:51saan ba na pupunta itong mga karagdagang charge

00:53na binabayaran natin sa ating mga electric bill?

00:56Bakit napapadalas ang rotational brownouts sa Visayas?

00:59Ako si Bama Legre

01:00at ito ang The Week Explained

01:02dahil mabuti nang malinaw.

01:06Napakamot ang ulo ng ilang consumer ng Meralco

01:08nang matuklasan nila yung ganilang electricity bill

01:10para sa buwan ng Oktober

01:12na halos dumoble.

01:13May ilan naman na zero ang binayaran.

01:15Uy, sana all.

01:17Bukod kasi, sa dagdag singil sa kuryente,

01:19may ilang consumer ang siningil ng bill deposit,

01:22kung tawagin.

01:23May iba naman na nirefund naman.

01:25Sa ilalim kasi ng Magna Carta

01:27for residential electricity consumer,

01:29ang bill deposit garantiya yan

01:31para sa distribution utility

01:32sakaling hindi magbayad yung mga consumer

01:34ng kanilang bill.

01:35Pero matapos ang reklamo

01:38ng napakaraming consumer,

01:39nagdesisyon ng Meralco

01:40na ipagpaliban na lang muna

01:42ang implementasyon nito.

01:43Sino nga ba

01:44ang consumer na dapat magbayad nito

01:46at sino ang kury fund?

01:48Yan ang alamin natin sa ulap

01:49ni Bernadette Reyes.

01:51Halos 32 centavos per kilowatt hour

01:54ang dagdag singil na Miraco

01:55sa buwan Oktubre.

01:57Ibig sabihin,

01:59mas mataas ng 64 pesos

02:01ang bayarin sa kuryente

02:02ng isang bahay

02:03na kumukonsumo ng 200 kilowatt hour.

02:06Pero may ilang customer na nagulat

02:08dahil hindi lang ito

02:10ang dumagdag sa kanilang October bill.

02:12Dahil ang ilan,

02:13dumoble ang bayarin?

02:15May iba naman,

02:17biglang nag-zero.

02:19Dahil yan sa tinatawag na

02:20bill deposit na required

02:22bayaran ng lahat ng customers

02:23ng distribution utilities

02:25gaya ng Miraco.

02:28Ano nga ba ito?

02:35Batay sa Magna Carta

02:36for residential electricity consumers,

02:39ang bill deposit ay garantiya

02:41sa mga distribution utility

02:42sakaling hindi mabayaran

02:44ng customer

02:45ang kanyang outstanding balance.

02:47Halimbawa,

02:48sa mga pagkakataong

02:49maglilipat bahay

02:51o di kaya'y

02:51may ibang bansa

02:52ang isang customer

02:53ang hindi nila nabayarang kuryente

02:56kukunin ang Miraco

02:57sa kanilang bill deposit.

02:59Kinukwenta ito

03:00base sa average monthly consumption

03:02sa loob ng isang taon.

03:05Kung nasa 2,000 pesos

03:07ang lumabas sa computation,

03:09ito rin ang sisingiling

03:10bill deposit.

03:12Idadagdag yan

03:13sa kasalukuyang monthly consumption

03:15kaya dodoble

03:16ang dapat bayaran.

03:19Ang bill deposit

03:20ay sinisingil

03:21sa mga bagong customer

03:22na nag-a-apply

03:23ng electric service,

03:25transfer of service,

03:26at increase in load

03:28o capacity.

03:31Kinukolekta rin ito

03:32mula sa mga customer

03:33na nagpapareconnect

03:34pero hindi pa

03:35nakapagbayad

03:36ang bill deposit.

03:38Maging sa mga consumer

03:39na mahigit 10%

03:41ang itinaas sa konsumo

03:42sa nakalipas

03:43na labindalawang buwan.

03:45Halimbawa,

03:46kung 800 pesos lang

03:47ang binayaran mong

03:48bill deposit

03:49pero pagkatapos nito

03:51umaabot sa 1,000 pesos

03:53ang average monthly bill mo,

03:56sisingilin ka

03:56ng karagdagang

03:57200 pesos.

04:00Kung kalbaryo yan,

04:01para sa ilang consumers,

04:03may ilang tila

04:04naging blessing pa

04:05ang bill deposit

04:06dahil ang kanilang bayarin

04:07biglang naging zero.

04:09Paano kaya nangyari yan?

04:11Ang bill deposit

04:12ay sinasaoli

04:13sa mga customer

04:14na good payer

04:15sa nakalipas

04:16na dalawang taon.

04:17Ibig sabihin,

04:18kung nakakabayad ka

04:19on or before due date,

04:21may refund ka.

04:23Isinasaoli rin ito

04:24sa mga customer

04:25na mahigit 10%

04:26ang ibinabasa

04:27konsumo sa kuryente.

04:30Kung 1,500 pesos

04:32na bill deposit

04:33ang siningil sa'yo,

04:35pero umaabot lang

04:36sa 1,000 pesos

04:37ang average

04:38monthly bill consumption mo,

04:40500 pesos

04:42ang isasaoli

04:43ng Miralco.

04:44Earlier this year,

04:46na-refund sa mga customer

04:47na good payer

04:48ang bill deposit.

04:50Pero ang mga pumalyas

04:52sa pagbabayad

04:52pagkatapos nito,

04:54muling siningil

04:55ng Miralco

04:55ng bill deposit

04:56nitong October 2026.

05:00Ayon sa Miralco,

05:02nasa 20,000

05:03mula sa kanilang

05:048 million customers

05:05ang hininga

05:06ng bill deposit

05:07nitong October 2026

05:09dahil sa late payment.

05:12Pero,

05:12kasunod ng reklamo

05:14ng consumers,

05:15nagdesisyon ng Miralco

05:16na ipagpaliban

05:17muna ang paniningil nila.

05:19Batay rin

05:20sa inilabas na advisory

05:22ng Energy Regulatory Commission,

05:24wala munang bill deposit

05:26na i-re-reimpose

05:27para sa mga customer

05:28na eligible

05:29sa no-disconnection policy.

05:31Bago rin maningil

05:33ng bill deposit

05:34ang distribution utilities,

05:35dapat silang

05:36magbigay

05:37ng written notice

05:38sa mga apektadong customer

05:39at ipaliwanag

05:41ang basihan nito.

05:43May option

05:44ang consumer

05:44na bayaran nito

05:45ng isang bagsakan

05:46o installment

05:47sa loob

05:48ng tatlong buwan,

05:48maliban kung papayagan

05:50ng distribution utility

05:51ang mas mahabang bayaran.

05:54Ang customer

05:55na hindi pa rin

05:56makakabayad,

05:57puputula

05:58ng kuryente.

06:00Sa hirap na raw

06:01ng buhay ngayon,

06:02bawat sentimo

06:03ay mahalaga.

06:04Kaya magbayad

06:05na ng kuryente agad

06:06kung may budget naman

06:07at kayang gawin

06:08itong maaga.

06:09Bawas,

06:10alalahan niyan,

06:11baka makarefund ka pa.

06:12Ako po,

06:13si Gunadeth Reyes

06:14para sa GMA News.

06:16Pero,

06:16si bill deposit

06:17man o wala,

06:18e umaaray na rin talaga

06:19yung maraming Pilipino

06:20sa taas ng singil

06:21ng kuryente

06:21dito sa Pilipinas.

06:23Pero yun mo,

06:24noong June 2026,

06:25nasungkit

06:26ng Pilipinas ang corona

06:27sa pinakamataas

06:29na residential electricity rate

06:30sa buong

06:32Southeast Asia.

06:33Ayon yan,

06:34sa Department of Energy.

06:36Imagine,

06:37mas mataas yung singil

06:38ng kuryente natin

06:38kaysa sa Singapore.

06:40Bakit daw ganito?

06:41Ayon sa ahensya,

06:42tumaas ang singil

06:43ng kuryente

06:44nang mapilitang gumamit

06:45ng mas mahal na fuel

06:46ang mga power plant

06:47dahil may ilang mga planta

06:48na nagsara

06:49noong nakaraang tag-init

06:50kasabay ng pagtaas

06:51ng demand sa kuryente.

06:53Pero aminin mo na eh,

06:54bakit nga bang

06:55mas mahal ang singil

06:56na kuryente sa Pilipinas

06:57kumpara sa mga kalapit

06:59nating bansa sa Asia?

07:00Yan ang ating alamin

07:01sa report

07:02ni Dano Tinkungkong.

07:04Netong June 2026,

07:06ang average na residential

07:07electricity rate sa Pilipinas

07:09ay umabot sa

07:1012.43 pesos per kilowatt hour.

07:13Mas mahal pa ang kuryente

07:15sa ating bansa

07:16kumpara sa kuryente

07:17sa Singapore.

07:18Ayon sa Department of Energy,

07:20as of June 2026,

07:22ang Pilipinas na

07:23ang may pinakamataas

07:24na residential electricity rate

07:26sa buong Southeast Asia.

07:27Paliwanag ng DOE,

07:29lumobo ang presyo

07:30ng kuryente sa bansa

07:31dahil napilitang

07:32mag-operate

07:33ang mga power plant

07:33na gumagamit

07:34ng mahal na fuel

07:35ng mag-outage

07:36o pansamantalang

07:37tigil operasyon

07:38ng ibang planta

07:39noong nakaraang tag-init

07:40kasabay ng pagtaas

07:41ng demand ng kuryente.

07:43Batay sa datos ng DOE,

07:45ang Buswanga Island

07:46Electric Cooperative

07:47ang may pinakamataas

07:48na residential rate

07:49noong June 2026.

07:51Above average din

07:53ang rate ng Meralco

07:54sa 14.48 pesos per kilowatt hour.

07:57Bagaman,

07:58bahagya lamang

07:58na mas mataas ito

07:59sa rate noong May 2026

08:01na 14.33 pesos per kilowatt hour

08:04para sa mga bahay

08:05na hindi lalagpa

08:06sa 200 kilowatt hours

08:08ang konsumo.

08:09Pero posibleng

08:10hindi pa rito

08:11matatapos

08:12ang kalbaryo

08:13ng consumers

08:14dahil pwede pang

08:15tumaas

08:15ang presyo

08:16ng kuryente

08:17sa mga susunod na buwan

08:18bunsod ng patuloy

08:19pa rin paglobo

08:20ng presyo

08:21ng mga produktong petrolyo.

08:25Bakit nga kaya

08:26mas mahal

08:27ang kuryente

08:28sa Pilipinas?

08:32Sa usaping ito

08:33mahalagang maintindihan

08:35ang nakapaloob

08:35sa Electric Power Industry

08:37Reform Act

08:38o EPIRA.

08:40Kung dati

08:40hawak ng

08:41National Power Corporation

08:42ang transmission

08:43at halos lahat

08:44ng pasilidad

08:45na nagdegenerate

08:46ng kuryente

08:46matapos

08:47maisa batas

08:48ang EPIRA

08:49noong 2001

08:49ay na-unbundle

08:51o nahiwahiwalay

08:52na ang operasyon

08:53ng generation,

08:54transmission,

08:54distribution

08:55at retailing

08:56ng kuryente.

08:57Ang generation

08:58at retail

08:59o yung mga sektor

09:00na nagsusupply

09:01ng kuryente

09:02ay naging privatized.

09:03Ibig sabihin

09:04mga pribadong kumpanya

09:06at negosyante

09:06na ang nagpapatakbo nito.

09:09Bagaman layunin nito

09:10ang paghimok

09:11sa maraming investors

09:12kapalit nito

09:13ang mabigat

09:14na pasanin

09:14sa bulsa

09:15ng consumers.

09:16Actually,

09:17bukod tangi

09:17yung Pilipinas

09:18at Singapore

09:19na may highly

09:20privatized na kuryente.

09:21Kaya hindi coincidental

09:22yung dalawang

09:23pinaka-privatized

09:25na power sector

09:26sa region

09:28ito na may dalawang

09:29pinakamahal na kuryente

09:30sa region

09:30kasi

09:31ginagawa negosyo.

09:33Hindi maasahan

09:34ang negosyo

09:34na patakboin

09:35ng isang

09:36batayang serbisyo

09:38batay sa pangailangan

09:39ng ekonomi

09:40at ng publiko.

09:41Ang pangunahin

09:41motivation

09:42ng negosyante

09:43ay tubo.

09:44Ayon

09:46kay Ebon

09:46Foundation

09:47Executive Director

09:48Sunny Africa

09:49dahil monopolyo

09:50ng mga pribadong

09:50kumpanya

09:51ang energy

09:52sector

09:52sa Pilipinas

09:53malaya silang

09:54nakakapagpresyo

09:55ng kuryente.

09:56Hindi gaya

09:57sa ibang bansa

09:57sa Southeast Asia

09:58kung saan

09:59pinatatakbo

09:59ng gobyerno

10:00ang energy

10:01sector

10:01bilang serbisyo

10:02at sila

10:03ang nagtatakda

10:04ng electricity

10:04rates.

10:05Sa ngayon

10:06humigit kumulang

10:08lima

10:09hanggang walang

10:10kumpanya

10:11ang nagkocontrol

10:12na humigit kumulang

10:1380%

10:14ng power generation

10:15at distribution.

10:17So,

10:17essentially,

10:19halos monopolyo

10:20ng ilang kumpanya

10:21lamang

10:21yung pag-generate

10:22ng kuryente

10:23at pag-distribute

10:24ng kuryente.

10:25Kung bibigyan

10:26ang poder

10:26ang isang negosyante

10:27na presyo yun

10:28ang isang alakal

10:29tulad ng kuryente

10:30ayon sa pagkakitaan niya

10:32mayiging sobrang

10:33mahal talaga yun.

10:35Alinsunod din sa epira

10:36naka-unbundle

10:37o hiwahiwalay

10:38sa billing

10:39ang charges

10:40sa kuryente.

10:41Kung titignan

10:41ng Meralco Bill

10:42halimbawa

10:43naka-itemize

10:44ang generation charge,

10:45transmission charge,

10:46distribution charge,

10:48buwis

10:48at iba pang dagdagbayarin

10:49gaya ng system loss.

10:52Pinapayagan kasi

10:52ng batas

10:53na ipasa

10:54ng direkta

10:54sa consumers

10:55ang aktual

10:56na gasto

10:56sa paggawa,

10:57pag-transmit

10:58at pag-distribute

10:59ng kuryente

10:59sa pamamagitan

11:00ng pass-through charges.

11:02Samantalang

11:03sa ibang bansa

11:03sa Southeast Asia,

11:05subsidized

11:06ng gobyerno

11:06ang bayarin.

11:08Isa pang dahilan

11:09ng mahal na kuryente

11:10ang pagiging

11:11dependent

11:11ng Pilipinas

11:12sa coal

11:13at natural gas.

11:14Dahil binibili natin

11:16ang mga ito

11:16sa ibang bansa,

11:18nakadepende

11:18ang presyo

11:19sa international market.

11:21Kapag tumaas

11:22ang presyo

11:23ng coal,

11:23tataas din

11:24ang generation

11:24charge

11:25sa inyong bill.

11:26US dollars

11:27din ang ginagamit

11:28na pambilirian.

11:30Kaya kung mahina

11:31ang piso,

11:31ang kuryente

11:32ay nagiging

11:33presyong ginto.

11:35E bakit nga ba

11:36hindi tayo

11:36gumagamit

11:37ng mas murang

11:38renewable energy

11:38sources?

11:40Kasi,

11:41hindi nag-invest

11:41in renewables

11:42yung mga

11:43privado negosyante

11:44para kumita

11:45sa renewables

11:46para maging

11:46self-paying

11:48yung renewable

11:49energy sources.

11:50Kaya mag-invest

11:51in pastruktura

11:52na yun

11:52na baka tumagal

11:53ng 10 taon

11:54o 15 taon

11:55bago medyo

11:57may returns

11:57na makuha doon.

11:59At kung negosyante ka,

12:00hindi ka maghihintay

12:02ng 5 taon,

12:0310 taon

12:04para kumita.

12:05Kung negosyante ka,

12:06gusto mo

12:06nakita ka

12:07sa pinakamaagam panahon.

12:09Sa isang pahayag

12:10sinabi naman ng

12:11Meralco

12:12na supportado nila

12:13ang hakbang

12:13ng gobyerno

12:14para mapababa

12:15ang electricity rates.

12:16Makikibahagi rin daw

12:17sila sa pagtalakay

12:18sa isinusulong

12:19na pag-amienda

12:20sa Ipira.

12:22Sakaling matuloy

12:22ang pagtatanggal

12:23sa system loss charge

12:25sa ating bill,

12:25hindi raw

12:26gaano'ng giginhawa

12:27ang consumers,

12:28lalot 5% lang

12:30ito ng ating bayarin.

12:31Katumbas yan

12:32ng 5 pesos

12:33na tapya

12:33sa kada

12:34100 pesos

12:35nating konsumo.

12:36Kung talaga raw

12:37na seryoso

12:38ang gobyerno

12:39sa pagpapagaan

12:40sa pasanin

12:40ng publiko,

12:41mas dapat

12:42pagtunan

12:43ang mga pangmatagalang

12:44solusyon.

12:45Ako si Dano Tingkungko

12:46para sa GMA News.

12:48Hindi lang bala

12:48kuryente

12:49nangakasyak

12:50kundi pati

12:51yung electricity bill

18:29At sa ilang bahagi

18:30ng Pilipinas,

18:30pwede pa yan

18:31masabay

18:31sa mga rotational brownout.

18:33Imagine,

18:33mainit na nga,

18:34wala ka pang kuryente.

18:36Ang hirap noon.

18:37Sa Visayas kasi,

18:38Averia,

18:38para sa maraming consumer

18:39ang mga rotational brownout,

18:41lalo kapag

18:42nakakaranas yung kanilang

18:43Visayas power grid

18:44ng mga red

18:44at yellow alert.

18:46Ayon sa isang eksperto,

18:47nangyayari raw ito

18:48kapag hindi natutugunan

18:49ang kailangang supply

18:51ng kuryente

18:51doon sa demand

18:52sa region.

18:53Pero paglilino ng

18:54Department of Energy,

18:55sinisikap raw nila

18:56ang lahat

18:56ng kanilang makakaya

18:57para mapatatag

18:58ang supply ng kuryente

19:00sa region

19:00at maibalik sa operasyon

19:02ang mga power plant

19:03na na sumailalim

19:04sa forced outage.

19:06Pero bakit nga ba

19:07nangyayari ito?

19:07Bakit problema

19:08ang supply ng kuryente

19:09sa Visayas?

19:10At ano ang mga solusyon

19:11kaugnay rito?

20:30You have more capacity than you need during the off-peak, therefore you have to ramp down

20:40your baseload power plants. And then in the evening when the demand is high, you ramp them up again, up,

20:47down, up.

20:49It stresses the boilers of the power plants.

21:11Here's the fire, you're closing the boilers of the power plants in your body.

21:15Here are the ones who run the water plant, up, down, down, down, up, down, down, up, down, up.

21:52Pagkulang yung supply at that point in time, then you have to cut because if you don't then you bring

22:00the whole system down.

23:01If you have more batteries in the system, you can absorb more renewable energy on a variable RE like solar

23:09and heat.

23:09This gives distribution utilities the option to address the immediate problem and also have something there for long-term application.

23:21Pero importante yung proper planning, proper execution.

23:37It's less an NGCP problem and more a supply side problem.

23:44Yung mix natin, optimal para sa requirement natin.

23:49Sabi ko nga, this load over capacity, we should have more distributed and more flexible generation.

23:56Pero what can NGCP do?

23:59Dapat mas mabilis yung kanilang expansion of the system to accommodate these new flexible and distributed capacities.

24:09Dapat mas mabilis yung kubi ko nga, this is a new system to accommodate these new systems.

24:11Dapat mas mabilis yung kubi ko nga, this is a new system to accommodate these new systems.

24:40Dapat mas mabilis yung kubi ko nga, this is a new system to accommodate these new systems.

24:42Dapat mas mabilis yung kubi ko nga, this is an NGCP.

25:11And that ends another episode of The Week Explained

25:15Wala build deposit na nanggulang tang ng maraming Pilipino sa kanilang mga electricity bill

25:19But yung breakdown, yung computation ng ating mga pinabayaran ganoon

25:23Wala sa other charges, at yung rotational brownout sa Visayas area

25:26Malinaw na maraming salig ang nakaka-apekto dito sa supply, demand, at presyo ng oriente

25:32Hindi man natin kontrolado yung mga tailan sa likod nito

25:35Mahalaga na naiitindihan natin yung mga proseso sa mga ganito issue

25:39Lalo na yung mga price increase sa ating electricity bill

25:42Sa ganitong paraan, mas malinaw na natin nakikita yung mga solusyon dito sa mga problema nito
