A consumer group is urging the Energy Regulatory Board (ERB) not to issue Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) a provisional authority to raise its rates as it had requested in a petition last Friday.

Meralco is seeking an increase of 30 centavos per kilowatt-hour (kwh) basic distribution rate to reach a return-on-rate-base of eight percent by the end of the year. RORB is a measure of profitability used by utility companies.

But the National Association of Electricity Consumers for Reforms Inc. (Nasecore) said any ERB action would preempt the Supreme Court.
