The average residential electricity rates of Negros Electric and Power Corp. (NEPC) will decrease by three centavos per kilowatt-hour this September. This means that the average residential power rates dropped to P14.2487/kWh from P14.2787/kWh in August, NEPC vice president and chief operating officer, Engr.
