Mexico's state utility plans to nearly double solar and wind capacity by 2030 to 7.1GW, but clean energy growth remains slow due to fiscal tightening and reliance on private-sector financing. Natural gas generation will surge, keeping Mexico's grid anchored to fossil fuels, leaving the country trailing behind Latin American peers in renewable energy share.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
Mexico's clean energy expansion is slowed by budget cuts and complex private financing, making natural gas generation the fallback. You face a power market where natural gas suppliers hold structural advantage and clean energy opportunities unfold slower than regional rivals.
