WASHINGTON, D.C. --- Ambassador Jose L. Cuisia Jr. welcomed General Electric's plan to introduce smart grid technology in the Philipppines, saying this would not only bring down electric costs but would also help make the country more attractive for investments. GE Philippines Chief Executive Officer Emmanuel de Dios confirmed GE's plan during a courtesy call by government and private sector representatives taking part in a study tour in the United States.
“I commend GE and Meralco executives as well as our officials from the Energy Regulatory Commission for introducing the smart grid technology in the Philippines which I hope will lower the cost of electricity,” said Ambassador Cuisia. “With the Smart Grid technology in place, the competitiveness of the Philippines as an investment-site-of-choice will be further enhanced.”
