Reporting Household Electrification Levels

The illustration below shows the published household electrification in the Philippines. Since 2015, there has been a general increase in the level. The decrease from 96.12% to 92.96% from 2018 to 2019 can be attributed to how the %HH is computed. As seen on the table 2.6, the served HH had already exceeded the 2015 PSA census by 2019 but there were still 1,618,264 unserved HH.

% HH Electrification = (potential HH – unserved HH)/potential HH
