Possible paths for Mexico''s electricity system in the clean energy
This paper analyzes possible paths for Mexico''s Electricity System. It shows that under the current dispatch order and minimization of electricity production-cost guidelines, Mexico will not reach the 50% clean electricity goal in 2050; however, this goal could be achieved before 2030 if the government favors CO 2 minimization, with a low impact on energy costs.
