Overview
- State energy officials said they are working with federal agencies to meet Flex’s $1 billion data and AI expansion, after delivering 20 megawatts last year and fielding a request for 80 megawatts more as they asked the grid operator CENACE to speed required studies.
- Jalisco said it does not expect blackouts and pointed to an approved plan that calls for 3,450 megawatts of added capacity by 2030 across generation, transmission, distribution and natural gas pipelines.
- SEDES, the state energy agency and the Jalisco Hotels Association signed a program covering more than 180 hotels that bundles technical audits, rooftop solar, battery storage and electric mobility, with a new recognition for properties that adopt these measures.
- To unlock projects, the state raised its first-loss guarantee fund from 20 million to 40 million pesos, cited more than 3,000 million pesos now available, and detailed a Serfimex line of up to 1,000 million pesos plus lease options that can cut energy costs by up to 40% with no upfront payment.
- Separately, SEDES urged the federal government to approve fuel‑storage permits to reduce risk from low reserve days and noted there is no diesel shortage in the state.
