Velasco: DOE, ERC treat power plants, gencos with kid gloves

House energy panel chairperson and Marinduque lawmaker Lord Allan Velasco on Tuesday called out the Department of Energy and the Energy Regulatory Commission over their apparent failure to penalize power plants and power generation companies over the spate of red and yellow alerts.“We always have a power supply problem and we need to fix this. We are investigating red and yellow alerts every year. every time there are red and yellow alerts, power rates go up.

ERC officials responded by citing that the amendments on fines and penalties for all violations of the Electric Power Industry Reform Act Law and ERC rules, including Certificate of Compliance , rules remain pending.During the same probe, the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines submitted a position paper that the 226 out of 234 system yellow and red alerts from 2016 to 2023, or 96.6%, are mainly caused by power generation companies’ unplanned or emergency shutdowns.
