    The document provides an overview of the Electric Power Industry Reform Act (EPIRA) of 2001 in the Philippines. EPIRA restructured the country's power industry by unbundling the vertically integrated monopoly, introducing competition in generation, and creating new regulatory bodies. It established the Wholesale Electricity Spot Market to determine power prices and promote renewable energy integration. EPIRA also defined the roles of the Transmission Corporation and Grid Corporation in ensuring grid reliability and compliance. While EPIRA faced challenges, it created opportunities to address issues, explore innovations, and adapt to an evolving power system landscape.
