19Rate-setting Framework
Through the PBR framework, Meralco is able to ensure return on capital and return of capital, support for operating and
maintenance expenses and applicable recoverable taxes, and maintain responsiveness to market forces affecting operations.
Performance-based Regulation of Distribution
Charges
• Meralco’s distribution charges are governed by the
PBR framework.
• PBR employs a rewards/penalties mechanism for the
distribution utility (DU) based on its network and
service performance.

Performance-based
Regulatory Framework
Rate Setting Under PBR
• DUs file their Reset Application with its proposed capital
expenditures, rates and performance targets.
• After expository/formal hearings and public consultations, the ERC
releases a Draft Determination then a Final Determination.
Rate Setting for electricity distribution involves a consultative process
between the regulator (ERC) and stakeholders, which include
distribution utilities, consumers, etc.
Reset: Every Regulatory Period Consisting of 4 Regulatory Years
• ERC verifies the MAP annually, checking forecast deviations from
the Final Determination and adjusting these accordingly.
• ERC also reckons a performance reward or penalty and a revenue
over- or under-recovery correction.
Rate Verification: Every Regulatory Year After Reset

New System Loss Caps
26
� On February 23, 2018, ERC posted in its website its Rules for Setting the Distribution System
Loss (DSL) Cap and Establishing Performance Incentive Scheme for Distribution Efficiency.
The Rules allows for a gradual reduction of Feeder System (Primary and Secondary
Distribution System) Loss caps as follows:
Year of
ImplementationEC Cluster 1 EC Cluster 2 EC Cluster 3
Cluster 4
(PDUs)
2018 12.00% 12.00% 12.00% 6.50%
2019 12.00% 11.00% 11.00% 6.25%
2020 12.00% 10.25% 10.00% 6.00%

2022 and onwards 12.00% 10.25% 8.25%4.75%
(if no annual submission
of feeder data)
� Sutransmission and substation loss is fully recoverable. However, if DUs do not submit
monthly metered subtransmission and substation distribution loss data, such losses, as well
as distribution feeder losses, will be set to 0.00 in the computation of the recoverable system
loss charge.
� The DU may also elect for an individualized DSL cap.

For 2018, reserves in Luzon are projected to be lowest during the summer months when
peak demand is expected to occur and hydro plants have lower available capacity. Yellow or
Red Alert conditions are not anticipated, so long as forced plant outages are minimized.

Policy for the Competitive Selection Process (CSP) in the Procurement by the Distribution Utilities (DUs) of Power Supply Agreement (PSA) for the Captive Market”
COVERAGE• Upon effectivity of the Circular, All prospective PSAs in
grid and off-grid areas shall be procured through CSP
• CSP involves publication of Invitation to Bid, pre-bid
conference, bid evaluation, and pre-/post-qualification of
winning bidder
• Exemption from CSP may be granted by the DOE in the
following instances: • Generation project owned by the DU funded by grant or
donations
• Negotiated procurement of emergency supply
• Provision of supply in off-grid areas prior to the entry of
New Power Providers
• Provision of supply by PSALM through bilateral contracts

DOE Department Circular No. DC2018-02-0003 “Adopting and Prescribing the
Policy for the Competitive Selection Process (CSP) in the Procurement by the Distribution Utilities (DUs) of Power Supply Agreement (PSA) for the Captive Market”
MECHANICS• Each DU shall annually develop and submit to the DOE a Power Supply Procurement Plan, which shall contain
among others, committed energy and demand, and indicative schedule for CSP
• The DU’s CSP may be managed by a Third Party Bids and Awards Committee (TPBAC) or a Third Party
Administrator (TPA)• The TPBAC shall have 5 members, where 3 members will come from the DU and 2 members will come from captive
customers that are not directly or indirectly related/affiliated to the DU
• The TPA shall not in any way be connected to any electric power industry player and shall have representation from
consumers
• Each CSP shall be completed within 5 months from the time of the publication of the Invitation to Bid until
submission of the PSA to the ERC
• Direct negotiations may be made by the DUs after at least 2 failed CSPs and there is no outstanding dispute on
the conducted CSP. A CSP is considered failed when during its conduct:• No proposal was received by the DU
• Only 1 generator submitted an offer
• Competitive offers of prospective generators failed to meet the requirements prescribed in the bid document
REGULATORY SUPPORT: Within 60 days upon effectivity of the Circular, the ERC shall develop rules
and procedures to: (i) support the Circular, including guidelines for TPA accreditation and a PSA
template, and (ii) address disputes arising from the conduct of the CSP.
