Crusty in the right places. Worth the chew.
Summary
Mexico's Ministry of Energy (SENER) has launched a fast-track permitting program for renewable energy projects and battery energy storage systems (BESS). The decree includes reference examples of storage needs across seven regions totaling approximately 935MW of 3-hour duration systems, though the government emphasizes these figures are illustrative rather than restrictive. The program aims to accelerate clean energy deployment in Mexico.
