SANCHEZ SALAZAR, María Teresa; CASADO IZQUIERDO, José María e SAAVEDRA SILVA, Eva. Private investment in the Mexican Electric Sector: institutional framework and geographical distribution. Invest. Geog [online]. 2004, n.54, pp.67-92. ISSN 2448-7279.
This article analyzes the opening process to private investment (national and foreign) in the Mexican electric sector, a process that has been taking place during the last three administrations (Salinas de Gortari, Zedillo and Fox) within the structural changes agreed with IMF and in the context of globalization. We describe existing forms of private investment allowed by law (independent production, small-scale production, co-generation, self-supply, importation and exportation) and discuss their relative importance within the national electric industry and their uneven growth and territorial expansion. Other issues discussed are the technology of generation of electricity, the economic sectors involved and the nationality of foreign capital.
Palavras-chave : Mexican electric sector; national and foreign private investment; geographical distribution.
