Background on the Key Figures and Their Roles
In Tampico, Tamaulipas, the Secretaría de Desarrollo Energético (SEDER) of Tamaulipas has taken a significant step towards ensuring fair electricity tariffs for the state’s residents. Under the guidance of Secretary Walter Julián Ángel Jiménez, Roberto Manuel Rendón Mares, the Subsecretary of Electricity and Renewable Energies, led a meeting with CFE’s Golfo Centro Division Manager, Tomás Bourjac Peralta, and other CFE officials in Tampico’s CFE offices.
The primary objective of this meeting was to discuss and reclassify electricity tariffs, ensuring equitable access to energy for Tamaulipas families. This initiative aligns with Governor Américo Villarreal’s commitment to bringing energy justice to all Tamaulipas households and fostering economic well-being.
The Process of Tariff Reclassification
Initially, the tariff values are calculated by the Divisional Management based on ambient temperature measurements provided by CONAGUA’s meteorological stations.
Once computed, these tariffs are forwarded to CFE’s central offices. Here, with the involvement of the Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público (SHCP), the final applicable tariff is determined.
