These are the published all-in rate multiplied by usage, rounded to the peso. They are not a quote for your bill: Meralco charges lifeline subsidies and some fixed items differently across consumption bands, so a real bill at the same usage will not match exactly. Use it to see the size of the month’s move, not to predict a statement.

The following month, July 2026, came in at ₱14.8261, a rise of ₱0.3428. See July 2026 or the full rate archive.

Meralco’s all-in residential rate for June 2026 was ₱14.4833/kWh, for a typical residential customer, resuming the climb after May’s dip.

What Meralco charged

The all-in figure for June 2026 is ₱14.4833/kWh, and the generation charge is ₱9.0704/kWh, both from Meralco’s own advisory. Source: Meralco, higher residential rates June 2026. May’s generation charge wasn’t separately verified in our archive, so we can’t state a clean single-month change in generation; the last verified generation figure before June was April’s ₱8.3864/kWh.

Change from the previous month

The all-in rate rose ₱0.1488/kWh from May 2026’s ₱14.3345/kWh. See Meralco rate for May 2026 for that figure. July climbed further, to ₱14.8261/kWh — see Meralco rate for July 2026.

What this means for solar

At ₱14.4833/kWh, every kWh a rooftop system produces and you use immediately is a kWh you avoid buying from Meralco at that price, and the generation component alone (₱9.0704/kWh) is now well over half the bill. That’s the mechanism behind solar savings here: self-consumption avoids the full retail rate, while net metering credits exported power only at the lower generation cost, so a system sized for daytime use pays back faster than one built to export.
