Power Economics 101: A Primer on Electricity Pricing

AmCham Visayas

AmCham came to life in 1902 as the Manila Coffee Round Table and later as Manila Merchants Association. Incorporated in 1920, it has since then recognized and reconfirmed the commitment of American business to the development and welfare of the Philippines and the Filipino people.

This is a commitment of long-standing, as its mission statement declares:

The Chamber exists to serve the interests of U.S. businesses through the participation of members in promoting their long-term objectives while contributing to the civic and economic development of the Philippines.”

Event Details

Most people do not pay much attention to their electricity bill. The bill arrives, they pay it, and then go on with their daily routine until the next month. But suddenly they notice their bill has gone up and they exclaim: "Why is my electric bill so high? Why does it keep going up?"

If you are one of these people, this informative session is for you. Understand what goes into the process of generating electricity, so you may be able to make some changes to lower the price you pay in future months.

Join us on Tuesday, May 18, 2021 starting at 2:00pm for a Primer on Electricity Pricing.
