Mexico energy report

• Institutions & Energy Policy

  SENER, Secretaría de Energía, is the Ministry that coordinates the energy sector.

  CRE (Comisión Reguladora de Energía) is in charge of regulating the gas and electricity sectors since 1995.

• Energy Companies

  Oil:

  State-owned company Pemex dominates the production (tenth largest world oil producer), transformation, and distribution of crude oil and oil products. In 2008, the Senate adopted a bill opening Pemex to foreign capital and gave Pemex greater managerial and financial autonomy.

• Energy Supply

  Gas:

  Gas production has been decreasing since a peak at 51 bcm in 2010 to 26 bcm in 2019 (-7%/year on average).

  As a consequence, total gas imports increased by 16%/year on average since 2010 and reached 56 bcm in 2019, around 89% of which came by pipeline from the USA and the remainder as LNG. In 2019, LNG imports mainly came from United States (60%) and Nigeria (20%).

• Energy Prices

  Gas:

  Average gas prices were approximately US$1.4c/kWh for industry and US$2.5c/kWh for households (2019). In 2019, gas prices for industry and households were 7% higher and 42% lower, respectively, than those in the United States.

• Energy Consumption

  Total energy consumption per capita is 1.3 toe and electricity consumption per capita reached around 2 300 kWh (2019).

  Total energy consumption has been decreasing since 2013, by 1.3%/year over 2013-2019 to 178 Mtoe in 2019. It increased previously by 1.9%/year on average between 2000 and 2013.

• Issues & Prospects

  Discussions between the business coordinating council (CCE) and energy companies such as Shell, IEnova, Sempra Energy, Enel, and Engie have led to the proposal of an energy investment package worth US$92bn in March 2020. The package includes 275 projects to be developed between 2020 and 2024. Projects include power generation, storage, transportation, and exploration and production of gas.

In the Mexico energy market report you will find the following tables:

• Economic Indicators: Annual historical data including population, GDP growth, imports and exports, inflation rate, energy security and efficiency indicators, CO₂ emissions.
• Supply Indicators: Historical data including oil and gas reserves, electric and refining capacity, energy production, power production and external trade. All are detailed by energy source
• Demand Indicators: Historical data including consumption per inhabitant, consumption trends, total consumption by energy source, final consumption by energy source and sector, and electricity consumption by sector.
• Energy Balances: Single table displaying the overall energy industry balance per annum, also graphically displayed by energy sub-segment.
• Infrastructure Projects: Covers power plant projects by energy, technology, status and operator, gas plant projects by status and operator and LNG contracts.

The Mexico energy market data since 1990 and up to 2019 is included in the Excel file accompanying the Mexico country report.
It showcases the historical evolution, allowing users to easily work with the data.

Key Data included in the excelsheet:

• Economic indicators: Annual historical economic indicators, energy security, energy efficiency and CO₂ emissions.
• Supply indicators: Annual historical reserves, capacity, production and external trade (imports(+) exports(-) balance).
• Demand indicators: Annual historical consumption per capita, consumption trends, total consumption, final consumption (per energy and per sector) and electricity consumption total and per sector.
• Energy Balance: total and per energy.
• Mexico Energy Prices: In addition to the analysis provided on the report we also provided a data set which includes historical details on the Mexico energy prices for the follow items: price of premium gasoline (taxes incl.), price of diesel (taxes incl.), price of electricity in industry (taxes incl.), price of electricity for households (taxes incl.), price of natural gas in industry (taxes incl.), prices of natural gas for households (taxes incl.), spot price of Brent and CO₂ emissions (from fuel combustion).
