Expanded Rural Electrification Program Implementation Strategies

The Expanded Rural Electrification (ER) Program integrates the rural and missionary electrification efforts of the government in collaboration with the private sector, non-government organizations, and several donor-funded projects with the view to attaining total barangay electrification by 2008 and 90% household electrification by 2017.
