Monterrey’s municipal government and the Comisión Federal de Electricidad agreed to reinforce their operating coordination after a run of outages, with MX$9 billion earmarked to modernize the metropolitan distribution network.

For businesses that depend on predictable service, the immediate change is the operating plan around the work: CFE crews will coordinate with the city on tree pruning and sectioned interruptions, while the municipality will collect the resulting vegetation and help keep crews moving.

MX$9B targets distribution across the metro area

The investment is intended to replace and modernize parts of the network in poor condition and accelerate CFE distribution work over the coming months. The reports do not specify a project-by-project spending schedule or a completion date.

  • Investment announced: MX$9 billion
