VACA, Jaime; NUNEZ, Gaspar  and  KIDO, Antonio. Multisectoral Analysis of Electricity Price Increases in the Mexican Economy. Prob. Des [online]. 2019, vol.50, n.196, pp.167-189. ISSN 0301-7036.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iiec.20078951e.2019.196.64775.

This paper presents a multisectoral analysis of the increase in electricity prices in the Mexican economy, applying a pricing model and using the most recent input-output matrix. Increases in the manufacture of petroleum derivatives and coal, as electricity sources, are also analyzed. Additionally, increases in the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity are studied. The key findings obtained from this analysis show that a 40% increase has the most significant impact on sectors such as air transport (7.76%); land passenger transportation (6.04%) -except rail-, tourist transport (6.04%) and on the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity (5.58%). This increase in turn impacts all subsectors of the national economy.

Keywords : Electricity; prices; energy transmission and distribution; multisectoral analysis; input-output matrix.
