ERC Fast-tracking PSAs to shield consumers from power price hikes

PARE welcomes the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) efforts to accelerate the approval of power supply agreements (PSAs) for electric cooperatives, which would shield consumers from price hikes during the summer months.

Expediting the PSAs will cushion the effects of a sudden spike in power rates when electric cooperatives source their supply from the Wholesale Electricity Spot Market (WESM), which is the stock market for power supply.

During red alerts and when power plants go offline due to unplanned shutdowns, ECs are forced to buy from WESM. During these times, many ECs are buying, and few companies are selling.

Thus, the selling price for power is higher, which puts the consumers at a disadvantage.

Hence, we welcome this move by ERC. However, we believe that fast-tracking PSAs should have been done before the dry season, when yellow and red alerts are common. 

This serves as another eye-opener for the Department of Energy, ERC, and the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines to better plan for low power supplies, especially during the dry season.

We also encourage electric cooperatives to protect the consumers by ensuring that all PSAs comply with the competitive selection process to ensure the bid winner is the most credible to provide reliable power at the least cost

We likewise call on the regulators to implement a more efficient system that will hasten the approval of PSAs, ensuring more affordable and reliable power for consumers.

Sentro ng Wika at Kultura ng KWF, Itinatag sa University of the Assumption

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Itinatag ang Sentro ng Wika at Kultura (SWK) ng Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino (KWF) sa University of the Assumption (UA), ang unang SWK na itinatag sa Lalawigan ng Pampanga.

Dinaluhan nina Komisyoner Arthur P. Casanova, Tagapangulo ng Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino (KWF) at Rev. Fr. Oliver G. Yalung, DL, PhD, Pangulo ng University of the Assumption (UA) ang Lagdaan ng Memorandum ng Unawaan (MOU) sa pagtatag ng SWK na ginanap sa naturang unibersidad, ang ika-44 na SWK sa Pilipinas na magsusulong, at magtataguyod ng wika at kulturang Kapampangan.

Dumalo rin sa lagdaan sina Dr. Reggie O. Cruz, Komisyoner ng Wikang Kapampangan; Dr. Arnel T. Sicat, Pangalawang Pangulo para sa mga Gawaing Akademiko ng University of the Assumption; at iba pang opisyal at kawani ng KWF at University of the Assumption.

Ang matagumpay na pagtatatag ng SWK ay naisakatuparan sa inísyatíba ni Komisyoner Cruz na nagnanais na magkaroon ng komprehensibong pag-aaral at pananaliksik hinggil sa wikang Filipino, kultura, at wikang Kapampangan kabilang ngunit hindi limitado sa paggawa ng diksiyonaryo, pagsasalin, at pagsulat ng mga aklat hinggil sa Araling Kapampangan.

Ang Sentro ng Wika at Kultura (SWK) ang bisig ng Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino (KWF) sa mga rehiyon at lalawigan. Tulad ng ibang mga SWK, inaasahang magiging katuwang ng KWF ang SWK sa pagsasagawa ng mga programa at proyekto ng komisyon.
