[Title] => Not overcharging enough
[Summary] => "Public utilities cannot be allowed to overcharge at the expense of the public and worse, they cannot complain that they are not overcharging enough." – Third Division, Supreme Court
The highest court of the land has spoken with finality that Meralco had overcharged its three million customers since 1994 with an amount that could reach a staggering P28 billion.
That the Lopez-led distributor should refund the same and reduce its rates by 16.7 centavos per kilowatthour is welcome news to the public burdened by rising power costs.

[Title] => SC orders ERC to explain P28-B Meralco refund order
[Summary] => The Supreme Court ordered the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) yesterday to justify the P28-billion refund it ordered the Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) to make to its four million consumers.
The SC issued its order to the ERC as the Lopez family-owned utility firm sought a reversal of the SC ruling upholding the ERC order.
The Supreme Court third division headed by Justice Reynato Puno gave the government 10 days to refute the allegations made by the country’s largest power distributor in its appeal submitted to the high tribunal early this month.

[Title] => Meralco accuses ERB, COA of ‘foul play’
[Summary] => Fighting off a P28-billion refund order, Manila Electric Co., (Meralco) blamed the defunct Energy Regulatory Board (ERB) and Commission on Audit (COA) which, it said, misled them into believing the formula they have been using is allowed under the law.
Meralco lawyers led by retired Supreme Court Justice Camilo Quiason said it was "foul play" for both institutions to have allowed them in 1993 to use the rates they have adopted only to reverse themselves five years later, which became the basis for the alleged overcharging.
