[Title] => ‘Meralco’s unsettled penalties now total P56B’
[Summary] =>
Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) now owes the National Power Corp. (Napocor) about P56 billion in unsettled penalties from its previous supply agreement with the state-owned power firm.
Napocor president Cyril del Callar said the penalties, which initially stood at P20 billion, kept on increasing because of the current auditing rules of the Commission on Audit (COA).
The Meralco receivables accounted for about half of the P111.4-billion customers’ receivables booked by Napocor in 2005.

The National Power Corp (Napocor) and the Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) are still threshing out details of the recently signed customer choice program (CCP), a ranking Meralco official said.

"The expanded ODPS (one day power sales) of Napocor is a big concern for us (Meralco)," Francisco said.
He said the ODPS implementation may pose conflict to the CCP.

My last column before I went on my annual sabbatical leave, "Peddling ‘lies’: Meralco or Napocor" (The Philippine STAR, May 26, 2006), elicited an immediate reaction from Meralco’s Elpi Cuna.

[Summary] => The public and private proponents of the energy sector are continuously exploring ways to mitigate the impact of the imposition of the 12 percent expanded value-added tax (EVAT) on power and petroleum products, Energy Secretary Raphael P.M. Lotilla said.
