How does Mexico regulate energy storage systems?
The Mexican government recently issued general guidance to regulate energy storage systems. These rules outline the process and rules for integrating storage systems with different types of facilities, including power plants, behind-the-meter installations, load centers and distributed generation projects.
What are the goals of Mexico's energy development plan?
One of the goals of the development plan is to ensure that the Mexican state will retain priority in power generation and commercialization. At least 54% on average of energy injected into the grid each calendar year must come from power plants owned by the CFE.
What's new in Mexico's energy sector?
The Mexican government has implemented sweeping legislation for the energy sector, including a new electric sector law -- called the LESE -- and a new law that overhauls the structure and governance of the Comisión Federal de Electricidad or CFE, the country’s power utility.
Why did Mexico introduce a new interconnection policy in May ?
In May , the Mexican government introduced a policy that, under the pretext of grid reliability, sought to grant interconnection priority to CFE’s strategic projects, impose stricter requirements for renewable energy projects to obtain generating permits, and require payments for additional ancillary services to offset intermittency.
