+ December 17, 2020 VISAYAN Electric is exploring ways to reduce the power rate in Metro Cebu following its recent dialogue with the business community.
Visayan Electric president and chief operating officer Raul Lucero on Thursday, Dec. 17, 2020, said the utility firm is coming up with a plan on how to cut the power rates vis-a-vis the firm’s existing contracts with independent power producers (IPP).
“We still have to calculate how much we can negotiate with the IPPs. We are still starting to talk to them,” said Lucero, adding that they hope to see progress in the first quarter of 2021.
But he stressed that Visayan Electric cannot just modify the contracts they have entered into with the IPPs.

As Christmas is upon us, i gathered some suggestions on how to get us to buy more local goods for the season. Every peso spent on the local economy is a benefit to the community, as getting this going is necessary as we all work towards recovery.
One, get a bowl of locally grown fruit on your noche buena and New Year’s Eve feast. Be sure to wash carefully. You can also buy locally made ham and food items, even buy a special dish from a local restaurant. Again, observe safe delivery protocols.
Many local suppliers and restaurants have Christmas packages for food favorites like ham and related dishes. Many of them, including retailers already have online shopping options even innovated by offering precooked frozen dishes for heating. Look up your local supermarket or online stores and restaurants for details. It is possible to enjoy them at home.
