Introduction

Beginning from the premise that Mexico's economic strength will depend largely on its ability to produce, manage, and export energy, energy experts in this book analyze energy planning in Mexico in the 1970s and possible strategies for the future.

Focus on Diversification

They focus on the potential for diversifying the country’s energy economy—now based almost exclusively on oil—by examining alternative sources, particularly natural gas, coal, and geothermal and solar resources.

Importance of Energy Diversification

The extent to which Mexico’s energy base is diversified, they assert, will determine the country’s ability both to meet internal energy needs and to prolong its export of oil and gas.

Impacts of Diversification

Findings suggest that diversification will not only increase Mexico’s economic strength, but will also expand the global supply of energy resources and have a profound impact on the United States, Mexico’s major trading partner.
