OPEN ACCESS AND LOAD PROFILE:
Socio-Economic Profile
PELCO II as an electric cooperative and with its commitment to the missionary electrification program of the government provided electric service to the remotest areas. As a matter of fact, it has energized the resettlement areas for displaced families affected by the Mt. Pinatubo eruption in 1990s. These are (1) Mawaque, (2) Madapdap, and, (3) Camachile all located in the town of Mabalacat; (4) Sta Lucia in Magalang; (5) Pio, Porac; (6) Florida, Palmayo, Floridablanca and, (1) Mawacat in Floridablanca.
With the effects of Mt. Pinatubo, the economic situation in Pampanga became worst because most of its towns were now covered with lahar. The land that farmers till as a source of their livelihood, including their properties and houses were devastated by lahar flows. Municipalities nearer the coastal areas of Manila Bay also experienced devastating floods due to the heavy silts that clogs the river.
Generally, PELCO II caters to the electrification needs of farmers and other land tilling individuals, most of which belong to the middle class and below poverty line groups. Because Pampanga lies in the Central Plains of Luzon, major livelihood activities include rice, sugar cane and vegetable planting. Swine and poultry raising also finance the needs of the Pampanguenos. There are also those who culture fish and prawns and engage in cottage industries. Some livelihood activities like lantern making depend on the season of the year for their production and sales. Those with more money to use engage in business and industrial ventures. People in Mabalacat work in the many industrial and commercial establishments in Mabalacat , the Clark Special Economic Zone and the nearby Angeles City.
The second millennium made Pampanga the next business center of the country. Establishments like SM, Robinsons, Wilcon Builders, realty projects and others, although located outside the coverage of PELCO II, contributed also to the increased load of the coop. Other businesses sprouted and flourished and some of these are located within the coverage area.
The cooperative now serves and extend its services to different industries like fastfood chains, food manufacturing companies, banking, education, communications, furniture making, public utilities like water and telephone and supermarket chains.
One of the objectives of EPIRA is to lower electricity rates. Consequently, EPIRA provides for open access wherein customers can choose their supplier of electricity. This calls for stiff competition among electric distribution utilities (EDUs) and to be able to compete, EDUs must be efficient. Efficient means PELCO II must live up to its vision and mission. At present, the cooperative’s load profile shows that some customers are possible candidates for open access, notably the following:
Industries / Big Load Customers
1. Mekeni Food Products Company, Porac
2. Poracay, Porac
3. Jomafer Supermarket, Sta. Rita
4. Mabalacat Water District, Mabalacat
5. Don Bosco High School, Mabalacat
6. S.M. Hypermarket, Mabalacat
7. Sogo Hotel, Mabalacat
8. Furniture Makers, Betis, Guagua
Information / Communication
Telephone services are provided by PLDT, DATELCOM, Digitel,
and Angeles Telephone System in the area coverage of PELCO II;
Cellular phones are also the easiest means of communications in the province since cell-sites of Globe, Smart and Sun Cellular are located in different places in the area coverage;
Several AM and FM radio Stations and even local TV stations are
now located in nearby city which supply up to date news and
information throughout the province and serve as partners of
PELCO II in its information drive campaign;
All departments, sub-offices and sub stations are served by direct lines and an intercom system is already installed in the main office;
System automation is now in its implementation stage and, although, there is still much to be done, the phase has started the end result of which is the facility of some aspects of work like generation of reports and billing and meter reading. This will harness the potential of existing employees. The Wide Area Network (WAN) is needed for the effective monitoring and control on the financial operation of the coop.
