Mexico is accelerating deployment of utility-scale and behind-the-meter battery energy storage systems through regulatory mandates, CFE's mixed-investment tenders incorporating over 2,500 MW of storage, and a standalone storage registration targeting 935 MW. These measures address solar curtailment, transmission congestion, and energy security amid a growing clean energy pipeline.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You have new opportunities to embed battery storage in solar and wind projects or develop standalone and industrial batteries in Mexico. Utility-scale and industrial storage are opening as key tools to keep the grid stable and reliable while bypassing transmission delays and imported gas risks.
