NOCECO Residential Power Rates Adjustments for March 2026
NOCECO informs its member-consumer-owners of a slight adjustment in electricity rates this month. The total residential rate for March 2026 is Php 11.8664 per kWh, representing a minimal increase of Php 0.0196 from February. While we successfully offset a significant Php 0.7025/kWh spike in WESM prices through lower transmission costs and reduced VAT, we are closely monitoring the escalating conflict in the Middle East. President Marcos has recently issued Executive Order No. 110, declaring a State of National Energy Emergency as global oil prices surge toward $120 per barrel. Because the Philippines relies heavily on imported fuel, these geopolitical tensions are expected to put significant upward pressure on the Generation Charge in your April billing, with industry experts warning of potential increases.
To mitigate the impact of these rising costs, we strongly urge all Member-Consumer-Owners (MCOs) to adopt a "crisis-mode" approach to energy conservation. Simple actions, such as reducing aircon usage by just one hour a day, switching to LED bulbs, and strictly unplugging "phantom load" appliances, can significantly lower your consumption and help cushion the blow of the anticipated April hike. As a community, our collective "bayanihan" in saving energy will be our best shield against these global price shocks.
