What does PEMC stand for in the EPIRA framework?

• A. Philippine Electricity Market Corporation
• B. Philippine Energy Market Corporation
• C. Philippine Electricity Management Council
• D. Philippine Electric Market Consortium

Answer: (A)

In EPIRA, PEMC is the Philippine Electricity Market Corporation, the market operator responsible for running the Wholesale Electricity Spot Market and overseeing the market rules to promote fair, competitive trading of electricity in the Philippines. The official name includes “Philippine,” which distinguishes it as the national entity created under EPIRA to manage market operations and ensure transparency in the electricity market. The other options don’t match the statutory name or role, so they aren’t the correct expansion of the acronym.
