Meanwhile, consumer advocate Laban Konsyumer Inc. (LKI) has welcomed the lower power rates this month.
“This is the second straight month of power rate reduction, totaling to PHP1 per kilowatt-hour in the past two months cumulatively,” LKI said in a statement.
It added the power rate for February is even lower than the rate a decade ago of PHP9.03 per kWh. (PNA)
