conversion of solar energy into electricity

If you are tired of the high and fluctuating CFE bills, especially when these are based on the high consumption DAC rates (Yearly average of 500kW or more per bi-monthly cycle), we offer you a thorough no-cost evaluation and proposal to dramatically reduce your electricity cost.

"My husband and I hired Tec Energia Mexico to install our photovoltaic system when we bought our second home in San Miguel. We had unfortunately used a different provider in our first house and had to wait almost a year to get the correct meter and get the system operational. With Tec Energia we were up and running in about a month. The service was impeccable. I would like to hire Tec Energia for more services! They were prompt, professional, always on time, responsive and cost efficient. This past month we had a 75% reduction in our electric bill! I understand that in the future, once we are out of the DAC rate, our bills will be even lower.  They are an excellent company."

"Tec Energia did a fantastic job of installing our photovoltaic system and we are very happy with the result. Our bill went from 2600 pesos for two months down to 299 with six panels. I was surprised that it dropped into the cheap zone immediately, since I thought we’d have to work off our excess usage over a period of time, but it did.  The system was installed during a holiday period when it was really hard to deal with CFE to get the meter changed, but Tec stayed on them, making multiple trips to the CFE office, until they did it. He was also there for the start of the installation and kept an eye on the crew. They were fantastic. All was kept neat and tidy and the install seems to be very professional. I was concerned about drilling into the roof, but they put in plenty of epoxy sealant in the bolt holes and there have been no problems."

"Thank you for your great work in the management of everything to do with us going solar! We appreciate your hard work & dedication to getting through all the legal steps with CFE. We could not have done it without you. Some people just don't realize that the job is more than putting up some panels. We also liked that you appreciated our concern for the aesthetics in making sure that the panels were not visible from any of our outdoor spaces. Now that they are up and running we are extremely pleased with the reductions in our CFE bill. Although we had been promised that, to see it actually taking place was very gratifying. You made the whole thing work. Congratulations & Thank You."

  • Historical consumption analysis or consumption estimate program

  • Installation site evaluation

  • Proposal

 

Upon proposal acceptance

 

  • Installation in one to two days depending on complexity and climatological factors

  • Total completion time is typically one month from receipt of deposit to startup except for situations out of our control

  • CFE Planning Department approval and CFE grid interconnexion contract*

  • Change of current meter to configured bi-directional meter*

  • Set up renewable energy generator service with CFE*

  • Startup system

  • Follow-up of consumption and generation during the first 6 months of operation

 

* CFE grid interconnected Installations

 

Warranties

 

  • Panels:  10 years for manufacturing defects, 90% output during the first 10 years, 80% for the first 25 years.

  • Inverters:  5 to 10 years depending on inverter model

  • Aluminum support structure:  25 years

  • Installation labor:  1 year

 

Payback

 

  • Typically 5 years or less (except in special situations)

  • Estimate of billing cycles to exit from average utilization used for DAC (Residential high consumption) rate if applicable

 

With more competitive pricing combined with the latest increases in DAC rates (6.8% in July 2016 as an example), payback tends to be increasingly attractive. Contact us for more information or to set up an evaluation visit.  You will not be disappointed!
