There’s power
in your choice
You have the power to choose.
The Retail Competition and Open Access (RCOA) allows customers in a contestable market to decide where they source their electricity. This paved the way for retail electricity suppliers like Mabuhay Energy to offer unique and customizable pricing schemes for its customers!
Have you checked your ELECTRICITY BILL?
You may have a NOTICE OF CONTESTABILITY from your network service provider or distribution utility!
If your monthly peak demand is at least 500 kW (as of Phase III), you are eligible to choose your own electricity supplier as a contestable customer! You are one step closer to switching to savings with Mabuhay Energy.

Mabuhay Energy’s Unparalleled Pricing Schemes
Market Pricing
Your price is based on the Wholesale Electricity Spot Market’s rate with a minimal retail supply margin.
Time-of-Use Pricing
By carefully analyzing your usage pattern and load profile, we can offer you a rate that is tailored to your peak and off-peak operations.
Seasonal Time-of-Use Pricing
Similar to the Time-of-Use Pricing, this pricing scheme offers you a set electricity rate for certain seasons in the year that best suit you.
Fixed Pricing
A common pricing scheme where we offer you a fixed electricity rate for the duration of your retail supply contract.
Indexed Pricing
An elaborate pricing scheme that bases your electricity rate on a formula calculating the FOREX rate and our choice coal price indexes.
Hybrid Pricing
Your rate is calculated using Indexed Pricing for your baseload. Your rate for the consumption in excess of your baseload is calculated with Market Pricing.

What Our Clients Say About Us
“Mabuhay Energy has been helping us since last year and made us see how much savings we could have realized had we switched to them sooner. This is why when one of our meters qualified for the Phase 3 of the RCOA we immediately signed another account with Mabuhay Energy even when the first meter was just awarded to them a month prior"
"Aside from the competitive price, we decided based on the merits of the contract and how Mabuhay Energy was able to provide flexibility in the off-take which is what we really need at this time.”
"Extending this contract is a big milestone for the companies and hopefully, everything will go as per the plan."
"We're more than happy to renew with Mabuhay Energy after they offered us the best rate out of all the RES companies that bid for our supply requirements. Our cost savings are now secured for the year thanks to the customized pricing and exceptional service of MECO!"
"Since we started sourcing our power from Mabuhay Energy in 2022, their amazing team has continuously provided us with the ideal pricing for our facility, giving us steady and reliable cost savings. This means so much that we are treated as partners in this agreement so renewing with MECO again in 2024 further cements our long-term partnership! "
"MECO came at the right time for us and they continue to offer the best fit pricing scheme for our facilities.
Their service, from ease of switching, to on-point electricity billing, and smooth renewal process, is certainly first-class! That is why we are more than happy to be partners with MECO for the foreseeable future."
