STATEMENT: Universal Charge

(Taguig City). The Department of Energy (DOE) reiterates its stand in finding ways to lower the electricity bill of Filipino consumers.

The DOE is looking at how the universal charge, which is being passed on to consumers, can be reduced. This is one of the mechanisms that the DOE is considering to lower the price of electricity.

The DOE hopes to come up with a win-win solution for all affected stakeholders, especially the electricity consumers.
