[Title] => Meralco urged to cushion impact of power rate hike
[Summary] => Energy Secretary Vincent S. Perez urges the Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) to come up with measures to cushion the impact of an increase in power rates.
"Meralco should also help. They should follow the changes we in the government are going to initiate. The National Power Corp. (Napocor) is already tightening its belt. It has already lessened the number of its workforce. We are calling on Meralco to help us," Perez said in a radio interview.
Perez said the higher power rates form part of the overall restructuring scheme being undertaken in the power sector.

[Title] => 6 sites eyed for new power plants
[Summary] => The National Power Corp. (Napocor) has identified six primary areas nationwide as potential sites for establishing new power facilities, a top energy official said.
"We have come up with our own in-house engineering studies. We have already pin-pointed some of the areas where power plants can be set up," Napocor president Rogelio Murga told The STAR.
Murga said based on their internal studies, Isabela and Ilocos Norte would be best suited for either coal or liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities.

[Title] => Napocor asks ERC to reconsider decision on new power rate scheme
[Summary] => The National Power Corp. (Napocor) will ask the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) to reconsider its decision not to grant a power rate increase through the so-called generation rate adjustment mechanism (GRAM).
Napocor president Rogelio Murga said the company is expected to file a motion for reconsideration to the ERC within the month.
Murga said the power firm needs the increase badly to fund its maturing obligations and operational expenses amid fears of looming power crisis in the country in the next few years.

Napocor president Rogelio Murga told reporters yesterday that the increase will cover the additional costs which are not incorporated in the earlier-approved budget.

[Summary] => The National Power Corp. (Napocor) will tap other countries for its additional coal requirements, a top company official said yesterday.
