Solar power commercial viability has arrived in Mexico, and
Your Company can save millions of pesos in energy costs.
Solar San Miguel international is now working on many large commercial solar and wind projects, and
several mega solar projects that are designed to be off-grid or interconnected with the CFE utility grid. Our company has now formed strategic alliances with two of the most experienced large commercial solar engineering companies in the USA, Bella Energy of Colorado, and REC Solar of California, to promote and develop these large commercial independent power production projects in Mexico (IPPs).

How Commercial Net-Metering works:
Net metering essentially allows independent power producers to interconnect with the grid so that power is always available either from the CFE or the renewable power plant, and controlled automatically. The advantage of net-metering is that an independent power producer can store power on the CFE grid when excess solar or wind power are produced, but the energy is not needed at that point in time. In these cases the excess energy is transferred to the electric utility grid, and is metered, so that the producer gets credit from the CFE against future bills.
Solar San Miguel will analyze a client company's electric loads, and then design a solar or wind (or hybrid solar-wind) plant that will produce sufficient electricity to match the average monthly loads of the client. Depending on the investment capital available, the client can be 5% independent up to 100% independent. Solar San Miguel often designs and installs systems that are expandable over time with available capitalization
Net-metering is expanded to 500 KW (.5 Mega)
Mexico's Energy Ministry has in the past two years opened the CFE Grid to commercial independent power production (IPP) interconnected with the CFE grid. This net metering policy is a very important step towards a Mexican national electric supply that is based on renewable energies, and less dependent on expensive fossil fuels. This policy also allows commercial enterprises to invest in solar technology knowing that their power supply is assured for decades at a much lower rate than the CFE.
Most recently the Federal Government of Mexico expanded commercial net-metering up to 500Kilowatts. This new energy policy allows factories and commercial enterprises of all sizes to manufacture up to 2-3 megawatts (two to three thousand kilowatts)of daily production for self -sufficiency in power. The law also allows 100% depreciation of solar equipment in the first year of operation. This is a tremendous opportunity for Mexico, the Mexican commercial sector, and for the environment of the planet.
Solar San Miguel has developed the tools for analysis of Return on Investment (ROI) for all levels of commercial solar PV and wind generation. Call us for an analysis of your company's power requirements and potential savings.
