[Title] => DOE hit for lease of costly gensets
[Summary] => "They are resorting to desperate and costly measures." Thus declared Foundation for National Development (FND) chairman Antonio Hombrebueno, referring to the decision of the government and the Department of Energy (DOE) to lease a 25-megawatt (MW) generator set for Oriental Mindoro from Singapore-based GE Energy Rentals worth $6 million. Power from the generator set is estimated to cost between P5 to P6/kwh.
Hombrebueno said that the cost is much higher than the P2.12 per kwh Napocor selling rate for Luzon or the P2.24 per kwh rate for Visayas.

[Title] => Ensure Meralco improves service, group urges ERC
[Summary] => The consumer advocacy group Foundation for National Development (FND) urged the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) to ensure that Meralco delivers on promised system improvements, as a result of the recently granted provisional authority for a 12-centavo power rate increase.

[Title] => NGO scores Enrile on power issue
[Summary] => A non-government organization scored yesterday former Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile for proposing amendments to the two-year Electric Power Industry Reform Act (EPIRA) "based on wrong facts and without looking at the real intents of the law."
