During a morning press conference, the director of the Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE), Manuel Bartlett Díaz, reported that by 2020 the price of electricity will be lowered in Baja California.

"New devices to generate electricity will be installed on the peninsula of Baja California and gas will be guaranteed through a 110-megawatt barge, this gas is guaranteed permanently," said Bartlett.
As soon as this gas plant project is in operation by 2020, the 30% decrease in electricity rates will be reflected in Baja California, said the CFE director.

Para incrementar el suministro eléctrico en las penínsulas de Baja California y Yucatán, se instalarán dos centrales que usarán combustóleo, diésel o gas y así se garantizará el suministro para la generación de energía eléctrica.

This project aims to solve the historical isolation that exists in Yucatan and Baja California.

In addition to lowering costs, the economy of Baja California will increase.

With these plants the supply of 56% power generation will be guaranteed, just as Mexico needs, leaving only 26% to the private industry.
