About these rates

  • ₱ per kWh, all-in. Residential, commercial and industrial figures are the overall rates per kWh for each customer class; generation is the generation charge alone.
  • Latest month varies. Each row shows the most recent month with data. Utilities publish on different schedules, and some haven’t published recently.
  • Averages, not your bill. Your effective rate depends on your consumption, subsidies such as the lifeline rate, and the billing month. For your own estimate, divide your bill total by its kWh.
  • Off-grid areas (marked) are served by isolated systems whose true costs are partly covered by subsidies, so their rates aren’t comparable with grid-connected areas.

Source: the “Rates per Customer Class, Per DU, Per Region” dataset, compiled from each utility’s published rate announcements (each utility’s page links its source), imported October 26, 2026. We haven’t independently checked every figure; if you spot an error, please tell us. Always confirm the current rate with your utility.

Questions about electricity rates

What is the average electricity rate in the Philippines?
There is no single national rate: each distribution utility and electric cooperative has its own. Among the 113 grid-connected utilities with recent data in this table, the middle (median) residential rate is about ₱12.83 per kWh.
Why do electricity rates differ between provinces?
Rates combine generation, transmission, system loss, distribution and other charges. Generation costs depend on each utility’s power supply contracts, and distribution costs depend on the size and density of its network, so two neighbouring provinces can pay quite different amounts.
Is my bill rate the same as the rate in this table?
Use the rate on your own bill for your calculations: divide the total amount by the kWh used. Published “overall rates” are averages, and the rate you actually pay can differ with your consumption level, subsidies and the billing month.
What is the generation charge?
It’s the cost of the electricity itself, passed through by your utility from its power suppliers, and usually the largest part of the bill. Under net metering, exported solar energy is credited based on the utility’s blended generation cost — see solar net metering in the Philippines.
