[Title] => Napocor deal to result in 25¢ discount for Meralco customers
[Summary] => The National Power Corp.(Napocor) is optimistic that its P20-billion settlement with the Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) will translate into a 25-centavo per kilowatthour (kwh) drop in power rates.
Napocor general counsel Rainier Butalid told The STAR that the 25-centavo savings to the Meralco customers was based on the agreement entered into by the two power firms last March 2003.
"The primordial reason why we are having such agreement is to decrease the electricity rates. This whole exercise is designed to benefit the consumers," Butalid said.
