rest

What has been shot is the rest of the bill

by

The receipt of natural gas becomes more expensive with the arrival of autumn. On October 1, a new upload of the natural gas receipt entered into force. The last resort rate (TUR) is scanned on average 13.2% in homes and between 12% and 20.1% in neighborhood communities, According to the resolution published in the Official State Gazette (BOE). The climb occurs in full start of the heating season, an especially sensitive moment for families that depend on gas to heat their homes. More increases? Each quarter, the Ministry for Ecological Transition always updates the TUR. The mechanism is automatic: if the cost of the raw material varies more than 2%, the rate is updated. And this October, the combination of three factors has been decisive: Seasonal gas: each fall is incorporated into the calculation because in winter the demand increases. Only that component causes the cost of the raw material to shoot 24.9% compared to July. International markets: Actually, base gas has reduced 6.5% thanks to the Brent drop Already a stronger euro against the dollar. But that respite has been buried by seasonal surcharge. The tolls and regulated charges: that finance transport and distribution. According to the OCUthis year they have risen strongly, especially in the fixed term of the invoice, which in some cases has shot up to 43%. In summary, although in the part of the international markets there has not been a disruptive change, the regulated adjustments and the entrance of the winter gas have ended up pushing the upward rate. How much do I have to pay for gas? The answer depends on how much each home consumes. The regulated rate (TUR) is divided into sections according to the annual use, which allows to easily identify what rate corresponds to each case: Tur1: up to 5,000 kWh/year. They are normally homes that only use cooking gas or for the hot sanitary water. In this section, the fixed is € 3.93/month and the variable in € 0.045/kWh. Tur2: Up to 15,000 kWh/year. It is the most common rate in families that use gas for both hot water and heating. Here the fixed rises to € 8.11/month and the variable to € 0.043/kWh. Tur3: Up to 50,000 kWh/year. It is applied in large homes with intensive heating or in small businesses. The fixed is € 18.82/month and the variable drops to € 0.039/kWh. In more practical data, According to the OCUan average home with 9,000 kWh a year goes from 553 to 619 euros per year, that is, 66 euros more in a single quarter. On the other hand, in neighboring communities there are special rates (Tur4 to Tur11), ranging from 50,000 kWh to very high consumption. Here the increases are higher: from 12% to 20.1%. Tur4 rises 15%, Tur7 19.2%and Tur11 20.1%. The hardest blow will be received by those who use the gas for heating, since the fixed term is paid every month although it is not consumed. Even so, the OCU emphasize that the Tur It is still cheaper than many free market rates, where some customers even pay twice. Beyond the invoice. The increase in gas does not affect only the families that use it for heating or hot water. It also conditions the electrical system. After the blackout of April 28, Red Eléctrica reinforced the use of combined gas cycles to give stability to the network. And what was born as an emergency measure has become the new normality: when solar and wind generation falls, The support continues to put the gas. This explains a paradox: Spain produces more renewable energy than ever, but not being able to store it sufficiently, gas enters to meet demand and ends marking prices. In other words: although the electricity and the gas invoice are different, the role of gas in the system makes both connected. There will be more changes in the future. And we already count it in Xatakabetween 2028 and 2032 eight million gas counters will be replaced. The new ones will be intelligent, will allow real -time readings and reduce fraud, but they will also cost more: the rent will go from € 0.58 to € 1.10/month, about 6 euros more a year for each home. The government defends that, in the long term, it will be saved on consumption and emissions, but in the short term it will be another rise in the invoice. The look set in January 2026. When the rates will be checked again. Everything will depend on the contribution of the gas, the euro against the dollar and the regulated tolls. But the context does not invite optimism, since the EU has extended the obligation to store 90% of the gas, which maintains pressure on demand. In addition, the Spanish electrical system will continue to need gas as supportat least until 2026, because there is not enough storage or intelligent networks. Finally, investments in digitalization and modernization (Accountants, batteries, micro -redes) will bring more fixed costs for consumers. In short, the gas will remain a volatile terrain and, although the regulated rate continues to be the most competitive, it is not a safe refuge. The increase in this October recalls that energy continues to mark the pulse of the family economy and that, until there is a system capable of storing and taking better advantage of renewables, gas will continue to dictate the rules of the game and invoice.

We thought that sleeping in 90 -minute blocks improved rest and energy when you woke up. Science has its doubts

by

As so many other viral trends In social networks, in recent years a seemingly simple formula has run like gunpowder for improve nighttime rest and wake up fresh like a lettuce: Calculate the dream in 90 -minute blocks To wake up just when one ends those blocks. This technique ensures that, when you wake up just when a complete sleep cycle ends, people They will feel more rested and with greater energy to face the day. However, scientific evidence questions the reliability of this method. The myth of exact 90 minutes cycles A survey of 2024 made by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine He revealed that almost one in ten American adults (9%) had tried this technique to determine what time they had to go to bed and wake up and have even been created Online calculators To make this calculation easier. The basis of this technique is based on Natural sleep cycles that are part of the set of cycles that regulate our body known as Circadian cycles. These cycles are the ones that determine the time of sleeping, of waking up, of eating, etc. According to this technique, a person who wants to wake up at 7:00 in the morning should go to sleep at 22:00 to complete six full -minute sleep cycles, or 23:30 to complete five sleep cycles. The concept is based on the idea that awakening at the end of a complete cycle, in phase V or REM, When the dream is lighterwould avoid the feeling of morning stun that occurs when we wake up in the middle of one of these cycles. Sleep cycles were first identified in the 1950s, when researchers They discovered These patterns called Ultradian cycles. During the night, the alternate brain between different phases: light sleep, deep sleep and REM sleep (characterized by the most intense dreams). Dr. Fouzia Siddiqui, Medical Director of Sentara Rockingham Memorial Sleep Center, explained in Popular Science that each of these phases fulfills specific functions for physical and mental recovery. However, the popularization of this scientific knowledge has led to excessive simplifications that They do not reflect the real complexity of human sleep. The most important of them: that the sleep cycles last exactly 90 minutes. That is the biggest problem of this theory. Scientific reality dismantles promises Recent studies They have shown that the duration of sleep cycles is not a constant but a variable. That is, its duration varies depending on each personand even the same person You can record more or less long cycless during the same night or vary according to the day. An investigation He analyzed more than 16,000 nights of sleep in 573 different people found that the median duration of sleep cycles was not 90 minutes but 110 minutes, with 75% of the cycles ranging between 95 and 130 minutes. Another study based on 2,312 nights of polysomnography data determined that the average duration of the cycles was 116.9 minuteswith a standard deviation of 39.7 minutes. In other words, establishing the 90 minutes as a basis for calculating sleep cycles not only is not an inaccuracy, but in practice it can be counterproductive since there is also the risk of interrupting the sleep cycle before it ends. Dr. Andrea Matsumura, specialist in Sleep Medicine and founder of Sleep Goddesss Method, said In the article of Popular Science that “factors such as stress, Alcoholdiseases or even bedtime, impact on the sleep cycle, so this method does not really guarantee that you wake up less stunned. “ In addition, the studies identified that as night progresses, sleep cycles They tend to elong in a natural wayso that the former can last between 70 and 100 minutes, while the later range between 90 and 120 minutes. Making it impossible to predict at what point in the cycle You will find yourself when it is time to wake up. On the other hand, in a standard sleep session of a healthy person, it is very unlikely be ahead of a deep phase of sleep since phase 3 of sleep, the deepest and repairinglasts between 20 and 40 minutes and usually occurs in the middle of the sleep session, and then move back to phase 2 which is a relaxing but lighter dream. Therefore, unless you are sleeping very few hoursthe awakening occurs from that lighter phase, and not from a deep phase as the 90 -minute block theory supports, which would leave a greater feeling of stunning. That is, this theory is based on two real facts: that awakening from phase 3 leaves you more stunned and that sleep cycles last around 90 minutes, to set up an alleged infallible technique to wake up as a rosto. The problem is that sleep It is not an exact science And the only thing that really works is Ensure the Descaso Hours that the body needs … and there are not even certainties about How long is needed.

There are more robots working in Chinese factories than in the rest of the world together. Beijing’s strategy is already a blow of global authority

by

Close your eyes for a moment and imagine The country with more robots in its factories. The logical thing would be to think of Japan, and not a few would also include the United States in the quiniela. However, the most recent figures point out another destination and do it clearly: China, where robotics has ceased to be an experiment to become the daily pulse of production. It should be specified from the start: we do not talk about showcase humanoids, but of industrial welding robots, manipulation and assembly, which are transforming how it is already manufactured what speed. The last report From the International Robotics Federation offers the clearest photograph of this phenomenon. In 2024 alone, Chinese factories installed about 300,000 industrial robots, a figure higher than the rest of the combined world. In parallel, the total park exceeded two million active units, well above any competitor. In contrast, the United States added 34,000 new robots in its production and Japan lines around 44,000, confirming the magnitude of the Chinese jump. China not only competes, already dominates China’s hegemony in industrial robotics has not appeared out of nowhere. Since 2017, its factories have installed Between 145,000 and 295,000 annual robotswith a especially strong jump from 2021. Pandemia barely slowed that progression, and in 2024 the figure was again located around 300,000 units. In contrast, the United States, Japan, South Korea and Germany not only started from much more modest volumes, but also registered declines in the last statistics. The next step in the Chinese strategy was not only to install robots, but to manufacture them on a large scale. For the first time, Chinese suppliers sold more than foreigners in their own market: 57% of the 2024 facilities were of local origin. On a global scale, Japan remains the main manufacturing country (around 38% of the world supply, according to IFR). This turn reduces dependence, although it does not equals full technological autonomy Chinese industrial policy has been decisive to accelerate the transition to automation. The initiative Made in China 2025 marked the first great milestone in 2015, with the aim of REducate dependence of imports in key sectors. Six years later, in 2021, the country adopted a specific plan to multiply the deployment of industrial robots. This planning added loans at low interest from state banks and support for technological purchases abroad. The result has been a fertile terrain for the expansion of Chinese robotics. When talking about robotics, the most common image is that of humanoids as Optimus either Figure. However, the figures that place China in the lead correspond only to industrial robots: mechanical arms that weld, assemble or move materials in the production line. The report leaves humanoids out, still in an experimental phase and with very small sales. Even so, the state impulse has generated an ecosystem of humanoid -centered startups, such as UNITREEalthough its weight in the industry remains marginal. The figures that place China in the lead correspond only to industrial robots. The integration of artificial intelligence into the factory is not exclusive to China: Japan, South Korea, Germany or the United States also apply with vision systemsautomated failures and quality control algorithms. What distinguishes Beijing is the scale with which this practice has spread, until it becomes a usual component of its industrial strategy. In many plants, the AI ​​monitors real -time machines, anticipates breakdowns and adjusts processes. This broader and more coordinated deployment has multiplied the impact of automation. The technological jump also depends on the people who make it possible. China has a large number of specialized technicians, from programmers to industrial electricians, capable of installing and maintaining robots in complex environments. Even so, the demand exceeds the supply and salaries of the installers have shot, already around $ 60,000. This talent gap reflects a global bottleneck: automation does not advance with capital and machines, it needs professionals who integrate it into the factory. Chinese leadership in industrial robotics still has clear borders. Although the country already manufactures a third of world robots, it continues to depend on foreign supplies for some key components. High precision sensors and advanced semiconductorsfor example, they are still domain from Japan and Germany, with decades of technological advantage. This deficit limits China’s ability to assemble higher range robots, especially humanoids. Even with a thriving ecosystem, technological autonomy is not yet complete and marks one of Beijing’s pending challenges. Although China continues to depend on foreign suppliers, the weight of its market already conditions global dynamics. By producing and installing more robots than anyone, it achieves economies of scale that reduce automation projects and pressing international prices. Its volume also gives it the capacity to influence technical standards and equipment interoperability. In the supply chain, the center of gravity moves to Asia, forcing other countries to adapt to an ecosystem in which China marks the rhythm, even without still controlling all technology. The map of industrial robotics is no longer understood without China in the center. In the next two years, the attention will be to verify whether to reduce its dependence on key components and if it maintains the rhythm of 300,000 new annual facilities. Beijing does not hide that he wants to extend this model to emerging sectors such as humanoids and reinforce their weight in global chains. For the rest of the world, the question is not whether China will continue to lead in volumebut how to respond to a strategy that combines scale, industrial policy and technological ambition.

The “Tiktok template” marks the way to follow for the rest. It is the formula for Chinese technology to enter the United States

by

The agreement of Tiktok For the application to remain in force in the United States It is making begg. It is not for less, because it is in the core of a great Commercial War between the US and China. In addition, it also represents something that goes far beyond the application itself or its operation: it establishes a model that could open the doors to other Chinese technologies to operate in US territory. How Tiktok would survive in the United States. According to the leaks of the Wall Street JournalTiktok will operate in the United States through a new company controlled at 80% by US investors such as Oracle, Silver Lake and Andreessen Horowitz. The remaining 20% ​​will remain in the hands of Bytedance and other previous shareholders. The key is that the US government will have a direct seat in the Board of Directors of the new company. Why is it important. Until now, Chinese technology companies in the United States only had two options: being prohibited or selling completely American competitors. This “Tiktok template”, as Kevin Xu, founder of the Newsletter Interconnected, mentions it, introduce A third way: technological licensing under American majority control. As the expert explains, “this model opens the door for more critical, strategic and advanced technologies to flow from China to the United States.” The real award. Beyond Tiktok, this model could be applied to sectors where China dominates the global supply chain. Let’s think about byd wanting Sell ​​electric cars in the United States, Catl supplying batteries To American manufacturers, or Hesai distributing Lidar systems to robotics. These are technologies where Chinese companies have a considerable technological advantage and are ready to deploy today, while US alternatives could take years to be available on a large scale. The rules of the game. To work, xu Explain That Chinese companies will have to accept staying with a minority and passive participation, renouncing part of the commercial benefits in exchange for the “privilege” of selling in the US market. They must also find the perfect mix of politically related investors and companies with the White House to assemble the company that is responsible for managing the product in the United States. Between the lines. “This was a purely political problem from the beginning, so it could only be resolved with a political solution,” Recognize XU himself after years chasing the case of Tiktok. The analyst explains that neither technology, nor national security, even the laws matter. According to Xu, what works is to identify the most powerful figures and tie them in a network of conflicting but attractive interests that is difficult to reject. And now what. The Tiktok agreement, which Trump He says he will confirm this Friday With Xi Jinping, he could mark the beginning of a new era in technological relations between the two countries. That Tiktok continues in the United States is a decision that will not leave anyone indifferent, both for supporters and detractors. The template is ready, now we need to see who uses it first.

Ukraine has opened Moscow drone to electronic war. From Russia it only has the name, the rest is one of the allies

by

The “unboxing” of Russian drones intercepted by the Ukrainian forces has revealed everything, since hidden messages until The origin of many of the technology components (with big surprises). It has also been known to what extent China is part of the war machinery or that even Nvidia has a fundamental role. Now, Moscow’s last drone, the most sophisticated, has fallen into Ukrainian hands. The last drone. The Ukrainian Military Intelligence Service He has revealed Detailed information about The Geran-3a new Russian attack drone derived from the Shahed-238 Iranian. Its incorporation into Russian arsenal represents a qualitative leap against to the geran-2: Reach speeds of up to 370 km/h thanks to Your turbojet engineIt has a range of approximately 1,000 kilometers and culminates its attacks with a terminal immersion maneuver that makes it detonate when impacting. Its massive deployment this year reflects the Russian bet for Kamikaze drones increasingly sophisticated and produced in large volumes. Design and capacities. The Geran-3 maintains the basic configuration of its predecessor, including similar cameras and transmission systems, but incorporates a satellite navigation system that, According to Ukraineis resistant to TElectronic War Ecnics usual. This armor against interference is an added challenge, since it limits the effectiveness of the electronic methods that until now managed to neutralize part of the enemy drones. The internal design reproduces previous, but optimized schemes for the highest speed and to cross areas under strong anti -aircraft coverage. Dependence on the “allies.” The surprising, or perhaps at this point Not so muchis that Hur’s investigation suggests that drone contains almost 50 pieces of foreign originfrom countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Germany and China. This fact reveals the difficulties of controlling The proliferation of two -use technology: although international sanctions seek to limit Russia’s access to critical components, global supply chains allow pieces manufactured in the West or Asia They end in military systems through intermediaries. The case underlines, one more timethe limits of the embargo measures and the need to reinforce technological traceability. Mass production Russia ha multiplied production of drones of the Shahed family, reaching industrial levels that allow massive attacks of enormous size. In fact, offensives have already been registered with More than 800 drones In a single night and western intelligence estimates consider it possible that Moscow can launch up to 2,000 units In a single coordinated attack. In addition, new launch centers are being built, demonstrating a planned saturation strategy to wear Ukrainian defenses and force a high economic cost in your response. Ukraine and new defenses. Given this panorama, Ukraine has accelerated production of interceptor drones capable of pursuing and demolishing objectives in flight. These systems, cheaper than conventional anti-aircraft missiles, seek to balance the cost-effect equation that currently favors Russia. In parallel, they are being deployed acoustic and optical sensors For early detection, along with tactical adaptations on the ground. kyiv tries to create a flexible and low -cost antidron shield, aware that the main threat resides in the volume and persistence of these attacks. Strategic implications. The Geran-3 symbolizes The new phase of the drone war: cheap, fast and difficult systems to neutralize that force adversaries to spend much more expensive resources in their defense. This dynamic erosion classical military doctrines and demands from the West coordinate production, exchange intelligence and reinforce export controls to prevent sensitive pieces from feeding the Russian arsenal. If you want also, the conflict shows that the technological war is no longer freed with great cost strategic weapons, but with swarms of autonomous systems whose proliferation is difficult to stop. Perspectives and risks. The appearance of the Geran-3 He anticipates an escalation in which Russia will bet on mass and persistent attacks to saturate Ukrainian defenses, while kyiv and their allies look for economic and rapid solutions to counteract. Thus, each advance in speed, autonomy or resistance A electronic countermeasures multiply the risk that the balance be tilted in favor of who can sustain serial production. In that field, Ukraine needs both technological innovation and industrial and financial support of its partners, because the drone war is emerging as a decisive component of the conflict.

China has been hoarding copper for months. And the rest of the world are dedicating ourselves to look

by

After the Rare earthChina has made copper its new geopolitical weapon. It only produces 4% of world reserves, but already controls 49% of the world refining and is buying raw materials at an industrial scale. Why is it important. More than accumulating raw materials, China is building an intentional bottleneck in the most strategic metal supply chain of the 21st century. Copper is indispensable for AI data centers, electric cars, solar panels and electrical networks. Who controls your refining will control the technological transition worldwide. In figures. The numbers are overwhelming: This mathematics is only possible to buy into mass abroad: import minerals from Chile and Peru, and junk of the United States. Then he processes everything in its low -cost melters. The general panoramic. The Chinese strategy shows sophistication that goes far beyond commercial opportunism. He has created a refining infrastructure distributed throughout the country (Jiangxi, Anhui, Guangxi, Shandong, Jiangsu) that can process any type of copper mineral at prices that no competitor can match. USA is exporting concentrates and scrap metalbut it does not have that refining capacity. Instead, China imports them, processes and turns finished products. Between the lines. He Timing This accumulation is not accidental. It coincides with the escalation of commercial tensions with the United States and the strategic approach to Afghanistan, which has large copper deposits. For China, controlling copper refining is an insurance policy in the face of a possible naval block of its commercial routes with Chile, Peru and Australia. Afghanistan thus becomes its only safe terrestrial source of copper. Yes, but. This strategy has a hidden cost that is already being manifested. Chinese foundations operate with negative margins due to the scarcity of copper ore and excess refining capacity. Some have already closed or suspended operations. The Syomine company has paralyzed its Namibia plantGlencore closed its foundry of the Philippines. China is paying a high economic price to maintain its dominant position. At stake. The commercial war is spreading to copper. Mexico has imposed 50% tariffs on Chinese products After Trump’s pressures, and China has threatened with reprisals. Mexico contributes 5% of Chinese copper mineral imports. If China cuts these imports, Southern Copper and the entire Mexican sector will suffer. But China needs each ton of available mineral. The money trail. Investors They have put 2.3 billion dollars in copper funds this year45% more than in 2024. They recognize the obvious: there is scarcity and China controls the refining tap. Accumulating copper is also a financial commitment in a deficit market. China has played a master letter. He turned his lack of own deposits in industrial domain: controls the refining, the link that adds the most value. But it has an Achilles heel that is to depend on importing minerals from countries that can become enemies. It is the dilemma of power in a fractured world: you need those who can betray you.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on September 13

by

It’s here, it is already. Yes, the Sabatino does not circulate today returns through his fueros. As every Saturday, drivers affected by these restrictions collected in the program designed by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) with the aim of improving the air we breathe. The restrictions go, indeed, to reduce the number of cars in the streets. How could it be otherwise, that forces cars at home. Restrictions that, as you know, apply in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today Taking this into account, how can we avoid an irregularly circular pore? Obviously, the most important thing is to know well the restrictions that apply. Restrictions you will find in the superior image. All those days have a particularity. The rules are clear but on Saturdays they change slightly. And it is not always the same drivers who have to leave their cars at home. In short, on a Saturday the following conditions can be applied. Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another no+ These restrictions, however, do not apply all day. At night they do not take into account and, therefore, are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without being afraid of fines. Once we have clarified all these concepts, what else do we have to take into account? The first thing is that today does not circulate Sabatino does not always apply the same. You have to take into account the calendar because on Saturdays do not always stay at home the same cars. It will be the plate number that defines it. Hologram 2 cars do have the obligation to rest. But, for example, hologram cars 0 and 00 never have to rest. The latter can circulate with total freedom because they are the cars that least contaminate. But what happens to hologram 1? On a Saturday like this, September 13, 2025it will be the cars with hologram 1 and plate finished in even number that remain at home. Because this Saturday is the second Saturday of September and, therefore, it coincides with “par”. Next week, the odd ones will go around and rest. However, there are some exceptions that must be taken into account because those cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on September 6

by

Saturday, September 6 … Everything sounds like it should be a particularly comfortable and rested day. It will not be if your car is under the measures of the program today does not circulate Sabatino. Well, as you know, certain vehicles will have to be protected at home during this day. This initiative, promoted by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema), Search mainly decrease toxic emissions improving the quality of the air we inhale. The operation is simple: certain cars, especially those that produce more pollution, are restricted traffic. Of course, it does not always fall on the same vehicles every Saturday. In the areas where this provision governs, some of them rest in alternate weeks. And where is it applied? Specifically in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today Who should be kept home? The daily functioning of the program is simple to understand, as seen in the superior image. But on Saturdays it is modified and not all cars face the same limitations every week. Certain vehicles have freedom of traffic some Saturdays, while on other occasions they run into prohibitions. The categories for this day can be divided into: Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another These limitations work exclusively between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m. In night, the prohibition is suspended, enabling traffic without the possibility of sanction. Beyond knowing the fundamental, it is relevant to underline that the implementation of the program is not uniform for all cars. Therefore, it is important to check three elements before leaving home: the calendar of the month, the hologram class that wears the vehicle and the final digit of its plate. As shown, cars with hologram 2 maintain the current limitation every Saturday, while those who carry holograms 0 and 00 have freedom of traffic every week. Those who have hologram 1 face interspersed limitations week after week. He Saturday, September 6, 2025which is located as the first Saturday of the month (odd), those cars with plates ended in odd number are obliged to rest. Next week, second Saturday (PAR), the limitation will touch cars with plates that conclude in even number. However, there are some exceptions that should be considered because those cars will have complete mobility: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport those destined for public safety and/or civil protection Those who violate these provisions will receive sanctions that go from 20 to 30 times the unit of measure and update (UMA), which represents a sanction between 1,924.40 and 2,886.60 pesos.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on August 23

by

Saturday, August 23: Day to rest. Especially if your vehicle is subject to the restrictions of the program Hoy does not circulate Sabatino. And, as you know, some cars must remain stored at home during this day. This program, promoted by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema), The main objective is reduce pollutant emissions improving the quality of the air we breathe. The mechanics is simple: some vehicles, mainly those that generate the greatest pollution, must limit their circulation, but do not always apply to the same cars every Saturday. In areas where this measure exists, some cars must rest alternately. And where is it applied? Specifically in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today Who are obliged to stay at home? The daily dynamics of the program is easy to understand, as can be seen in the explanatory graph, but on Saturdays it changes and not all cars have the same restrictions every week. Some vehicles can circulate without restrictions certain Saturdays, while other weeks face limitations. The categories for this day can be divided into: Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another These restrictions govern only among the 05:00 and 22:00 hours. During the night the limitation is eliminated, allowing circulation without a risk of fine. In addition to knowing the essentials, it is important to highlight that the application of the program is not constant for all cars. Therefore, before leaving, it is important to verify three aspects: the calendar of the month, the type of hologram that the vehicle and the last digit of its plate has. For example, vehicles with hologram 2 have active restriction every Saturday, while those who have holograms 0 and 00 can circulate without restrictions every week.

What cars can circulate and which ones rest on August 2

by

Saturday. August 2, specifically. Moment to rest … especially if you are a car that is part of the restrictions of today does not circulate Sabatino. Because, indeed, today some cars will have to stay at home. What we are talking about is the program today does not circulate, that designed by the CDMX Ministry of Environment (Sedema) that forces to leave some cars at home with the idea of improving the quality of the air we breathe. With him, polluting emissions should go down. The system is simple: some cars, especially the most pollutants, have to stay at home. For them there are restrictions but the same Saturdays do not always stay at home. And, where it applies, some cars have to rest. And where is it applied? Specifically in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today Taking all this into account, who should stay at home? Daily, restrictions are simple to understand, you can clarify all the details in the superior image. But not every Saturday, for example, they have to stay home on Saturdays. And some of them can move with total freedom but others have more problems. Which is it? Specifically, those who have total freedom and other weeks cannot move. Because, indeed, there are restrictions that alternate week by week. Because, indeed, one day as the following conditions can be applied today. Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another no+ These restrictions, however, do not apply all day. At night they do not take into account and, therefore, are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without being afraid of fines. Clarified all this, should we take something more into account? Yes, as we told you, the Sabatino does not circulate today has the peculiarity that it does not always apply in the same way. Therefore, it does not always affect the cars themselves. First you have to look at the calendar (then we will see why it is important), then the hologram and, finally, the plate number. This is because Saturday is a special day in the program of today does not circulate Sabatino. It does not always affect the same cars in the same way. Those of Hologram 2, for example, cannot circulate any Saturday but those of Hologram 0 and 00 can do it every week. In that case, they have total freedom. And those of Hologram 1? Here is the crumb because a few weeks can move and others do not. In this case, the Saturday, August 2, 2025are obliged to rest those that the registration ends in odd number. This is because we are on the first Saturday of August and, therefore, it is these cars that must stay at home. Next week, the second week (PAR) will affect cars with a plate finished in torque. Of course, do not forget that there are some exceptions that allow some cars to move with total freedom. Are the following: However, there are some exceptions that must be taken into account because those cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.
