The application of Daylight Saving Time in the country during allowed a saving in electrical energy consumption of gigawatt hours , enough to supply the electrical consumption of residential homes for an entire year with an average consumption of 289 kWh per two-month period. The savings generated by Daylight Saving Time during prevented the emission of 504 thousand tons of carbon dioxide. The Electrical Energy Savings Trust (Fide) reported that in economic terms, these figures mean an estimated saving of 1,455 million pesos, when considering an average cost of electrical energy of pesos kilowatt hour (kWh) for users. domestic. In environmental matters, the savings generated by Daylight Saving Time during 2015 prevented the emission of thousand tons of carbon dioxide, the main pollutant of the greenhouse effect, the equivalent of the burning of thousand barrels of crude oil.
The above based on preliminary calculations prepared by Fide, with information from the Federal Electricity Commission and the assessment America Mobile Number List of the Electrical Research Institute. In a statement, Fide states that next Sunday, October 25, Daylight Saving Time ends for the entities of the Mexican Republic, with the exception of the municipalities located on the border strip, where it ends on the first Sunday of November. In addition, it recommends that the population turn their clocks back one hour before going to sleep next Saturday, so that they can resume their activities with their normal schedule the next day. For the 33 municipalities in the northern border strip of the country, Daylight Saving Time ends next Sunday, November 1. These municipalities are Tijuana, Mexicali, Ensenada, Playa.
The state of Sonora does not participate in Daylight Saving Time, and this year it did not apply to the state of Quintana either, so both entities maintain their respective schedules, that is, they will not set their clocks back next weekend. Since 1996, Mexico is one of the 86 countries that apply Daylight Saving Time in the world, as an energy saving measure. It consists of advancing the clock one hour during the part of the year in which the greatest sunshine is recorded, with the aim of reducing the consumption of electrical energy used mainly for lighting in the domestic sector, equivalent to one hour of artificial light at night. As demand shifts due to this time change, electrical energy is no longer consumed, helping to reduce the burning of fuels for the generation of electrical flow. Daylight Saving Time 2016 will begin on Sunday.
