What the DAC?! PV Mirror

With the glorious sunshine back upon us every day, many of you may be reading this article in the comfort of your beautiful home with only one air conditioner silently or not so silently cranking away - unlike the summertime when you have them all on, working full time.

While most of us enjoy our air conditioners and the modern comfort of being able to live well in the relentless summer heat and humidity, there are few - if any - of us that look forward to the dire consequences that will begin arriving on our doorsteps every two months once the summer heat returns... the dreaded CFE electric bill!

In this article, we discuss energy-related issues that face us here in Mexico. Don't worry, not only do we shed light on some of the challenges or problems regarding energy, we also bring awareness and highlight solutions to these issues with the intention of raising your energy IQ and overall consciousness.

So let's start with some information that will get you thinking... electricity that you consume on your CFE electric bill, the more money you are charged per unit of electricity. Huh? You read correctly and yes, that indeed goes against most all purchasing situations whereby economies of scale are the rule.

In the Bay of Banderas region, if you happen to consume more than 800 Kilowatt hours (kWh or Units of Electricity) per CFE electric bill on an annual average, you will be one of the chosen elite that will receive the great honor of being welcomed into the DAC tariff electric rate tier.

"What does DAC mean?" you may ask, and "What kind of rewards will I receive?" may be your next question.

First, DAC stands for "Domestica de Alta Consumo" or High Use Domestic Rate in English. The answer to your second question unfortunately means you are being rewarded, not with a Gold Medal, but with a very high CFE electric bill every two months of at least 3,000 MXN Pesos or more.

So, if you have already received this great honor, but would rather give it back and keep more cash in your pocket and bank accounts, visit eSunEnergy or call (329) 296-5657 for more information.

Now is the time to act, not once the heat and humidity return.
