    How was your request?

Average electricity consumption of the Municipality of Los Baños, Laguna

Requested from DOE by N. Katimbang at 11:27 AM on Nov 25, 2021.
Purpose: will be used in formulating local ordinances regarding Local Climate Change Action Plan
Date of Coverage: 11/25/2011 - 11/25/2021
Tracking no: #DOE-628561771073

Katimbang 11:27 AM, Nov 25, 2021 

Good day! I would like to request any data containing electrical consumption of the whole Municipality of Los Baños, Laguna. I have tried asking Meralco directly, but they said it was due to data privacy act that they cannot share such information. It would be useful to us to study such data if it exists since we will use it as basis on creating local ordinances in promoting renewable energy.
I hope you can help me regarding this matter. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Engr. Neil T. Katimbang
Engineer I-Municipal Gov't of Los Baños
