The maximum demand charge can represent 30–40% of your CFE bill. A peak shaving system eliminates it automatically — without affecting your production.
Analyze my demand chargesThe problem
CFE charges you for the highest power peak it records at any moment of the month — even if it lasts only 15 minutes. That one peak defines a large portion of your rate, regardless of total energy consumed.
One peak. One month of charges.
CFE records the highest power draw it sees — even if it lasts just 15 minutes. That single moment defines a large portion of your monthly bill.
GDMTO rates amplify the cost
Under GDMTO rates, demand charges can represent 30–40% of your total bill. Cut that charge by a third and your numbers change.
Every simultaneous start-up adds up
Motors, compressors, industrial ovens — each simultaneous start pushes your demand peak. CFE measures and bills every one of them.
The solution
The system monitors your power consumption continuously. When it detects you approaching the contracted demand limit, it activates batteries or sheds secondary loads automatically — no interruptions to your process, no manual intervention.
Who it is for
Industry & manufacturing
Plants with high-consumption machinery: motors, compressors, furnaces. Any process with simultaneous start-ups is a candidate.
Businesses on GDMTO rates
If your bill is already on medium-voltage rates, the demand charge is eroding your margin. Peak shaving attacks it directly.
Large commercial operations
Shopping centers, hotels, hospitals: high installed load with variable demand — the ideal profile for peak shaving.
