The 11th Pasig City Council passed on Monday, June 5, a resolution allowing a tripartite agreement between the local government, the ERC, and Meralco to promote and utilize more renewable energy resources. ManilaBulletin
Proposed Resolution No. 202-2023, authored by Councilor Angelu De Leon, was approved by council on its second and third reading during the regular session of the city council.Delivering a report on the committee findings on the resolution, De Leon highlighted the benefits that the agreement, with close partnership with national energy agencies and companies, can provide the city and its constituents.
The MOA aims to institutionalize the net metering program, which the councilor explained is a “two-way flow of electricity which enables the consumers to become producers of their own electricity and sell back to Meralco their excess electricity.” To address some of the foreseen shortcomings of the program during the committee hearing, she noted that the stakeholders have all agreed to improve the application process for net metering, which was identified as the most common issue among customers.
