CFE rate levels

[elevator 82]

What are the CFE rules or regulations regarding power level usage and what triggers a higher rate?

I would think a visit to CFE is warranted for the information you are requesting.  If you don't speak Spanish, take someone with you to help.

Bill come for most of us every two months. DAC (high rates, where you lose government subsidy) comes when you use more than 3000 KwH a year.  So keep your bill below 500KwH for two months and you will stay off DAC.  Example my old huge house no matter what I did could not use less than 600KwH per two month period my bill was 600 peso or so. After a year doing this the bill went to 3200 pesos or so.  I installed a solar panel system 1000 watts and my bill went down to 200 pesos and I actually saved enough money to pay for the array and a little profit when I sold the array to my landlord years later.

I hope this explains DAC to you.  Rumor is CFE is not putting people on DAC while the pandemic is going on.  I have no idea if this is true.   Anybody know?
