Global Energy Demand Growth and Mexico’s Scenario
According to the IEA’s Global Energy Report 2025, global electricity demand increased by 4.3% in 2024. In contrast, Mexico experienced a 3.5% growth in electricity demand between 2022 and 2023, as reported by the National Electrical System Development Program (Prodesen).
Factors Driving the Increase in Electricity Demand
Several factors have accelerated the demand for electricity, including:
- The use of artificial intelligence
- Electrification of services such as transportation
- Increased air conditioning usage due to rising global temperatures
- Growth in industrial operations
The Need for Reliable and Sustainable Electrical Supply
As homes, data centers, industries, and commercial buildings require more electricity to avoid power outages or interruptions that could halt production lines or cloud operations, modernizing electrical installations becomes a swift and sustainable solution for ensuring continuous electricity supply.
Mexican Electrical Regulations and Global Efficiency Strategies
The Mexican electrical regulation (NOM-001), the 2.0 grid code, and global energy efficiency strategies aiming to reduce environmental footprints represent a paradigm shift that Mexican companies are eager to embrace.
