Pre-EPIRA Situation
Almost all ECs buy wholesale electric power supply from NPC Using the Distribution System, electricity purchased from wholesale is distributed to residential, commercial, industrial, & other customers; all of which are captive By Law, captive market is normally regulated Also, since ECs are public utilities, they have franchises
EPIRA Regime
Since the signing into Law of the EPIRA in 2001, many things have changed significantly The entire electric power industry has been more and more becoming exposed to various risks and uncertainties associated with EPIRA implementation The ECs are not spared from the challenges and risks in the changing electric power industry environment
