The Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) reported that it has established a permanent Emergency Response Command Group to monitor the evolution of winter storm 'Fern' and strengthen operational coordination in the event of possible power supply disruptions. This measure aims to monitor weather conditions, implement preventive actions, and respond promptly to any eventualities, primarily for end-users. According to the first official report, as of 12:00 hours, no critical issues or disruptions to the national electrical system's operation have been recorded. In a press release, the CFE stated that the command group is led by the General Director and their team, who maintain constant vigilance over the phenomenon's development. As part of the response system, Strategic Operational Centers (COE) have been established in various regions of the country to ensure a coordinated response before, during, and after the winter storm. Operational headquarters are located in Baja California, Northern Gulf, Central Gulf, and National Offices. The CFE also detailed that it has sufficient human and material resources to immediately address any contingency related to the power supply. Among the available resources are: over 800 electricians and logistics personnel, 210 cranes and 333 light vehicles, an off-road vehicle, 37 emergency power plants, and 24 lighting towers. The state-owned company indicated that it will keep the public permanently informed and reiterated that the telephone number 071 is available to report any issues related to the energy service.
