Solar power in Mexico
Historically, the main applications of solar energy technologies in Mexico have been for non-electric active solar system applications for space heating, water heating and drying crops. As in most countries, wind power development preceded solar power initially, due to the lower installation cost. Since solar power is not available during the night, and because wind power tends to be complementary to solar, a mix of both can be expected. Both require substantial storage
Wind and solar benchmarks for a 1.5°C world
Mexico would require around 97 GW of wind and solar to be installed by 2030 (19 GW and 78 GW, respectively) according to our benchmarks. Despite its current low levels, our model sees
