Overview
- CFE’s new grid plan, presented Sunday, lays out 58 projects grouped in 49 bid packages that add up to 387 works across 138 transmission lines and 249 substations.
- Financing will blend public funds with CFE Fibra E, which covers 44 projects in 35 packages, as five tenders already out top 1,048 million pesos and 14 more are slated to exceed 6,700 million.
- A new procurement microsite went live to publish bid calendars, specs, and awards so suppliers can track contests and compete on clearer terms.
- In parallel, CFE reports 8,726.49 MW of new generation in the pipeline, with five plants in operational testing expected to enter service in 2026 in Mérida, Valladolid, Mexicali, Manzanillo, and Tuxpan.
- Local electrification continues under the same expansion drive, as San Quintín in Baja California stands at 29% progress with 17 works planned in the first half of 2026 and an estimated 4,776 residents set to gain service.
