The National Electrification Administration (NEA) through its Board of Administrators (NEA BOA) issued a Decision ordering the removal of BENECO’s Board of Directors based on findings of long-standing irregularities in the management of BENECO.

Several electric cooperatives (ECs) heeded the call of the National Electrification Administration (NEA) Administrator Antonio Mariano C. Almeda to help save ailing electric cooperatives in Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM).

A total of 47,000 electric meters with an estimated value of Php47 Million will be donated by some ECs in Luzon and Visayas to Lanao del Sur Electric Cooperative, Inc. (LASURECO) and Maguindanao Electric Cooperative, Inc. (MAGELCO).
