ERC eyes lower open access threshold as early as 2027
The Philippine Star|July 15, 2024
Qualified electricity end-users consuming at least 100 kilowatt hours (kWh) a month may soon be allowed to choose their power suppliers amid plans to lower the open-access threshold as early as 2027.

The Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) is continuing its efforts to fast-track the implementation of the lower retail competition and open access (RCOA) threshold, its chairman and CEO, Monalisa Dimalanta, said.

RCOA, regulated by the ERC, is a framework designed to promote competition in the retail electricity market, allowing power endusers to choose their electricity providers.

Dimalanta said their “goal” is to expand the RCOA coverage and reduce the threshold to 100kW from 500kW a month, but noted that a thorough study is still being conducted before moving forward with the plan.
