Summary:

This case involves a petition for review on certiorari filed by the National Association of Electricity Consumers for Reforms (NASECORE), Federation of Village Associations (FOVA), and Federation of Las Piñas Village Associations (FOLVA) against the Manila Electric Company (MERALCO). The petitioners challenge the decision of the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) approving MERALCO's applications for the translation into distribution rates of the ERC-approved Annual Revenue Requirement (ARR) for the first and second regulatory years of the 2007-2011 regulatory period. The Court of Appeals affirmed the ERC's decision, prompting the petitioners to file this appeal.

Doctrine:

Administrative regulations enacted by administrative agencies to implement and interpret the law have the force of law and enjoy the presumption of constitutionality and legality until set aside by a competent court. The Court will not interfere with the fixing of rates by the government, through its authorized agents, unless there is an abuse of discretion.
