Commission approves postponing judicial election to 2028

The mandatory registration of cell phone owners is advancing, but does not reach the goal. According to the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (CRT), as of June 22, 62 million 582 thousand 340 lines had been linked. This represents 43% of the total of 144 million 585 thousand 131 active numbers in the country. That is, only four out of every ten lines are registered.

The legislation establishes that users must associate their name and CURP with each line before June 30. Those who do not do so could lose service. The process began on January 9, 2026, but the number of links is still below 50%.

Obstacles in registration

The Competitive Intelligence Unit (CIU) warns that the pace is insufficient. In an analysis he points out:

“Compliance is growing, but the speed recorded is insufficient to achieve widespread coverage before the June 30 deadline.”

The real problem is not a lack of information. A CIU survey reveals that 66% of users are aware of the obligation, but only 45% of them have registered their lines. The firm explains:

“The main obstacles are not related to lack of knowledge, but to the reluctance of users to execute the process.”

The gap between knowledge and action shows a key factor: mistrust. Many users hesitate to share personal data such as name and CURP, despite dissemination campaigns. Without measures to strengthen information security, full compliance by June 30 appears elusive.

A leap towards energy sovereignty

President Claudia Sheinbaum presented the Renewable Energy Growth Plan, a strategy that seeks to strengthen Mexico’s energy independence, promote social justice and reduce environmental damage by 2030.

The plan contemplates adding 32 thousand megawatts (MW) to the National Electric System during the six-year term. To achieve this, an estimated investment of 739 billion pesos is required.

The most relevant thing: 70% of this new capacity —22 thousand MW— will come from renewable sources. This will progressively reduce dependence on imported natural gas.

Two key projects in the northwest

The Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) is developing two emblematic works in that region.

The first is the “Oasis” complex, in Mulegé, Baja California Sur. It will be a hybrid system that will combine solar energy with a photovoltaic plant, mass storage with state-of-the-art batteries and green hydrogen production.

The second is the Rafael Galván Maldonado Photovoltaic Plant, in Puerto Peñasco, Sonora. This mega-project is projected to be the largest solar energy plant in all of America. It is emerging as the axis of the federal government’s sustainability and electrical modernization agenda.

Both projects are advancing in parallel. The goal: to consolidate a cleaner energy matrix that is less vulnerable to the fluctuations of the international fossil fuel market.

Preparations for the rainy season

Culiacán, Sin. — The Sinaloa government installed the Civil Protection Command Post for the rainy season. It was reported that there are 136 temporary shelters with the capacity to house up to 51 thousand people who require evacuation.

Roy Navarrete Cuevas, state coordinator of Civil Protection, explained that there are 2,500 elements from the three levels of government, in addition to firefighters, Red Cross, volunteers and 801 emergency vehicles.

The event was chaired by the interim governor Yeraldine Bonilla Valverde and the national coordinator of Civil Protection, Laura Velázquez Alzúa. It was announced that, according to analysis, between 18 and 21 cyclones could affect the state territory.

Velázquez Alzúa explained that, except for the municipality of Choix, the rest of Sinaloa presents medium-high risk for tropical cyclones: six municipalities with medium degree, two with high and 11 with very high risk.

Bonilla Valverde urged the population to follow the official information and recommendations of Civil Protection.
