What Qenergy does

Qenergy (legal entity HU PA LU ENERGY, S.A. DE C.V.) is a privately held Mexican electricity commercializer operating in the country's Wholesale Electricity Market under market participant contract GEN-088-JUN-2019 issued by CENACE. Founded in 2020 in Mexico City through the consolidation of Energy Gurú — a specialist consultancy on the Mexican wholesale electricity market — and Agencia de Energía ESTAM — an energy efficiency, grid code compliance, and on-site generation firm — Qenergy serves large industrial and commercial energy users (grandes usuarios), Qualified Suppliers, and non-supplier commercializers. The company is headquartered in the Santa Fe business district of Mexico City.

The company's core product is Suministro Eléctrico (Electric Supply), which delivers electricity, power, and Clean Energy Certificates under fixed-price contracts with 100% product coverage, 24/7 energy blocks, and savings guarantees against the basic tariff. This is supported by four additional service lines: Power Plant Representation (market access for generators lacking their own market participant platform), Guarantee Financing (payment performance guarantees and working capital for CENACE operations, bundled with equipment normalization and grid code compliance), Training and Consulting (including wholesale market courses and proprietary financial modeling for power plant debt raising), and Energy Efficiency and Electrical Work (IoT-based real-time monitoring via wireless sensors and on-site photovoltaic installation). Underlying technology combines wireless IoT sensors connected to critical user equipment with proprietary algorithms for energy analysis and proprietary models for projecting future nodal prices.

Qenergy operates a B2B sales-led go-to-market, engaging enterprise and mid-market energy buyers directly through a dedicated 24/7 customer channel, with marketing primarily via a corporate website and direct phone/email contact. Revenue is generated through electricity supply (recurring supply contracts), transaction fees on represented power plant sales, guarantee financing fees, and professional services for consulting and efficiency work. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.
