It is increasingly common for Mexicans to resort to solar panels to save money regarding the consumption of electrical energy, given this, the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) announces changes in it light bill which users should be aware of to lower rate of pay in April.
It must be remembered that even though there is solar panelsusers will continue to receive light billbut it is important that you know the changes in this receipt, since this way you will be able to know that in reality low the fee of pay in April or the following months.
These are the changes in the CFE electricity bill for solar panels
The first thing to identify to know if you have a light bill in which the CFE is aware that they are being used solar panels, is if the word “NETMET” or “PHOTOVOLTAIC” appears next to the service number. Likewise, another row of values is shown in the consumption reading, so now two readings will be taken into account.
The legends that indicate “Previous reading”, “Current reading” and “Total period” appear on the electricity bill; but the important thing to consider is the last one, since one of the figures is the consumption through the CFE service and the other is that provided by the solar panelsso a subtraction will be applied that will lower the fee of the pay.
Through the image above that works as an example, it is shown that the reading consumed from the network of CFE was 435 Kwh and the reading of injection into the grid by solar panels was 242 Kwh, so the result is a value of 193 Kwh, which is shown in the “Sum” row, this would be the energy that would be charged to the customer .
Finally, it should be noted that at the bottom of the electricity bill there appear some notes from the CFE, which indicate the cut-off dates, excess consumption notes and in the case of solar panels the amount of kWh will appear. that are in favor, which if there are any, will be applied to the next receipt.
