MANILA – The Manila Electric Co. (Meralco) said it has fully restored electricity in its franchise areas after the onslaught of Typhoon Ulysses.
“As of November 24, 2020, Meralco has completed full restoration of all of its facilities and electric service affected by Typhoon Ulysses,” the power distribution firm said in a statement Wednesday.
As “Ulysses” hit a big portion of Luzon on Nov.12, over 3.8 million Meralco customers in Metro Manila, Central Luzon, and Calabarzon (Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, Quezon) experienced power outages.
The Department of Energy, along with Meralco, also asked for patience of affected customers as full power restoration takes days particularly in areas submerged in floods.
The safety of linemen was also considered at those times.
“For customers/households that may still be experiencing intermittent power service, they can contact us at 16211 or our official Facebook and Twitter accounts,” Meralco said. (PNA
