MANILA – Power distribution giant, Manila Electric Company (Meralco), stressed that the firm is complying with its obligation to supply its customers in the least cost manner.

“As will be borne out by the records and as can be seen from our website, we have sought to optimize the overall cost of generation and transmission for our consumers. This has resulted in the least cost for our consumers,” said Meralco president Jesus Francisco during Monday’s hearing of the Joint Congressional Power Commission at the Senate.
