Tech Energie focus their business in the design, installation and operation of sources of renewable energy, a rare field in Mexico. According to the Mexican Regulatory Energy Commission, in the second half of 2015 only 15.36% of the energy used in the country was generated through renewable sources, such as solar and wind. Efforts to use clean and renewable energy in Mexico - despite growing and developing better options for customers - encounter difficulty due to national policies and federal regulations.

Tech Energie has become one option to counter the high rates and environmental damage associated with the national utility company (CFE), and also for the gas emissions of burned fossil fuels. They have 3 different options for power generation:

Photovoltaic - Transforming photons or sunlight into electrical energy. They offer systems of electric power generation through photovoltaic panels, generating the necessary energy for the electrical consumption of almost any load.

Thermal - Using solar as heat, water heating systems are made by interconnecting the hot water network to the energy-generation system and reducing the gas consumption

Wind - Electrical energy generation through the air streams with the advantage of all day generation. According to studies, this technology can lead to high profitability and lower consumption in any context.

Basically, if you are looking for options of clean power generation Tech Energies offers you these 3 different options, and by choosing one or more of them, you will be cooperating with the efforts in this specific UN Global Goal. To understand this business model a little better an interview was made with Oscar Tamez, a sales manager who gave more information.

Inspiration

The company was founded on behalf of the community, inspired by the growing interest around the world for clean and renewable energies. “Make the world a better place for future generations, preserving our resources and doing less harm to the earth with our progress” said Oscar Tamez.

Overall impact

Tech Energie makes efforts to contribute to the decrease of carbon footprint and energy. In Oscar Tamez’s words, “With the studies made for each project, we can design the specific system required for energy consumption in the most efficient way. Every customer has different needs and our goal as a company is to work hard and give them a final product according to their requests and with the best quality standards at the lowest price possible.” There is not anything more important for companies that stay focused on customers and clients because they are the base of the business, 96% of customers valued this as the integrity of the company.

Business benefit

Tech Energies’ operations have successfully developed since 2012, gaining the respect and awareness of the customers and the few competitors in the business. “Mexico’s federal laws prohibits the use of energy where the national utility company has presence without a regulation contract, and Tech Energie's legal department also helps customers to arrange this in order to make easier the implementation of our technologies," affirmed Oscar Tamez. "So in the very end the service provided by this company not only goes in technical aspect but also in the legal."

Their 3 different options are offered to commercial clients, but there is also the possibility to offer the thermal process for residential use.

Social and environmental benefit

“Our vision as a company is to be the best option to our clients regarding projects for efficient electric and thermal power generation, and nothing better than doing this with the added value of teaching our customers how much they can help the world with the problems mentioned,” said Oscar Tamez.

Tech Energies is committed to ensure access to affordable, reliable and modern clean energy for its customers. They are committed to reduce the carbon footprint by reducing the consumption of regular generated electrical energy in Mexico (75% of this energy is produced by fossil fuels).
