Meralco Public Information Office Head Joe Zaldarriaga (in photo) said the reduction was due to the downward movement in generation, transmission, taxes, and other charges.This month’s overall rate is lower by PhP1.54 per kWh compared to May 2015’s PhP9.98 per kWh. It is also the lowest since January 2010, or over a period of six years.
