Item Restricted An input-output analysis of the price effects of Meralco's power rate reforms(1987-01) Anico, Ariel Valerius M.; Tan, EditaItem Restricted Negative externalities of electricity generation in the Philippines(2002-01) Abecina, Roanne G.; Sta. Maria, Lennel C.; Tan, EditaItem Restricted Impact of the subsidy reduction program on residential customers and on Meralco(1985-10) Macabasco, Maria Cynthia R.; Morte, Maria Venus N.; Herrin, AlejandroThe immediate impact of the subsidy reduction program on the residential customers would be to reduce the consumption of the lower consuming groups in the desire to mitigate the impact of the increased rates. The reduction in consumption is however not expected to be so considerable as to offset the effect of the increased rates primarily because the consumers to be affected most by the rate increases in the subsidized kilowatt-hours are the lower consumption groups who most likely are also the ones who consume electricity for the most basic household needs. The impact on the consumption of the higher consuming groups is not certain, after all, people are not expected to deliberately waste electricity just because its price fell. Furthermore, the subsidy reduction program will result to bill increases for the lower consuming groups primarily because the rate increases that are part of the program cannot be offset by the reductions to be had in the generation charge while it will result to bill decreases for the higher consuming groups because the reduction in the generation charge would more than offset the increases in the rates for the initial kilowatt-hour consumptions. Lastly, the subsidy reduction program does not give any additional profits to MERALCO.Item Restricted An analysis of the subsidy reduction program of Meralco(1986-01) Cabigon, Laline C.; Rajilig, Gregory R.Item Restricted An analysis of electricity demand by the residential sector in Metro Manila(1987-10) del Rosario, Ronald; Villanueva, RobertItem Restricted Public utility pricing: the Meralco case(1987-10-06) Alberto, Tina Carolyn; AModia, Ma.

Miranda; Rodil, Amelita R.Item Restricted An evaluation of electric power pricing(1985-03) Ng, Marivic De Dios; Chavez, Loretta AlvarezItem Restricted An evaluation of the electric power industry reform act of 2001(2002-03) Geron, Cherryl C.; Lintag, Carlo S.Item Restricted Factors driving electricity demand in the Philippines(2009-04) Chua, Dennis; Soriano, Anna YsabelThis paper examines the main factors that affect electricity demand here in the Philippines. The study used monthly time-series data from January 2005 to September 2008. The Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test was used on the variables to determine their stationarity, and the ones that contained unit roots were differenced in order to proceed with Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) Estimation. Several variables thought to be significant at first were dropped due to unfavorable results, which included GDP, population growth, and manufacturing production. From the results of the study, we can conclude that here in the Philippines, the main driver of electricity demand are not macroeconomic factors, but monthly temperature changes. This insight helped us conclude that Demand Side Management (DSM) is a key policy that should be implemented in managing electricity consumption.
