Distributed generation in Mexico is entering a new phase marked by digitalization, the integration of storage, regulatory evolution, and the emergence of new business models. In this webinar, experts will analize key factors in the imminent evolution of distributed generation in Mexico. We will explore how "DG 2.0" redefines the role of the user-prosumer, the technical challenges facing the distribution grid, and the opportunities for greater efficiency, resilience, and democratization of access to clean energy.
