Highlights

  • The country targets a share of 38% of "clean" energy sources in the power mix in 2030 and 50% in 2050.
  • A new constitutional reform strengthens CFE's position in the power supply.
  • Two public companies dominate the energy sector: CFE, with 70% of power generation, and Pemex for oil and gas production.
  • Oil and gas production is decreasing since 2023 (6%/year).
  • The share of CO2 free power generation stood at 23% in 2025 (+5 pp since 2010).
  • Final energy consumption is stable since 2022.
  • From 2020 to 2023, prices of motor fuels and electricity have been rising by almost 15%/year.
  • Around 85 GW of new capacity will be necessary by 2038, mostly from wind (29%), solar (24%) and CCGT (21%).
  • The country is investing heavily in gas and refining infrastructures.

  • Energy & Climate Policy Framework

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

  • Energy Companies

    Oil:

    PEMEX remains the dominant upstream operator in Mexico, accounting 90% of the country's liquid oil production in 2025. In 2025, PEMEX's crude oil and condensate production fell to a historic low of around 1.6 mb/d.

  • Energy Supply & Demand

    Resources:

    Mexico has the fourth largest oil reserves in Latin America, with around 813 Mt (after Venezuela, Brazil, and Ecuador) and has large conventional gas reserves (242 bcm) (end of 2025). Mexico also has large recoverable shale gas resources estimated by the U.S. Energy Information Administration at up to 19 Tcm.

  • Energy Use and Price by Sector

    Energy Prices in Residential:

    The standard VAT rate of 16% applies to energy products.

    The Government still regulates energy prices (except natural gas prices). Because of the important impact of energy prices on social and economic aspects, any changes in the prices are examined by the Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público (Ministry of Finance).

  • Issues & Prospects

    Gas:

    The rise in gas consumption should lead to an increased effort in exploration-production activities and to the development of imports, mainly through pipelines from the US (according to plans, 20% of consumption will be supplied by imports).

The Mexico energy market data since 1990 and up to 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).
