At present, there are 83 combined-cycle
plants in Mexico, which accounts for 29%
of the national installed capacity.

Further information of combined cycles:
- Works using recovered gas and steam
- Operates continuously with high availability and no intermittencies
- Implements programs to continuously improve the generation process
- Greater efficiency compared to other technologies (1.4 times more than a thermoelectric plant)
- Offers a clean and ecofriendly process

Environmental benefits of combined-cycle plants

- The natural gas does not emit solid particles during its combustion, REDUCING CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS BY 60%
- Steam is recovered and turned into water to be reused during the process, POTENTIALIZING AND CAPITALIZING THIS VALUABLE RESOURCE
- CCPP ONLY REQUIRE A THIRD OF THE WATER used in conventional thermoelectric plants
- COMBINED CYCLE technology has replaced generation that uses highly polluting materials such as fuel oil and carbon
- Thanks to its proximity to the delivery and loading points, ENERGY LOSS IS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED during the transmission process
- The energy generated in the steam turbine is the result of the waste heat from the gas turbine, which makes this A CLEAN SOURCE OF ENERGY
