We have developed particular expertise in serving companies within the electric sector, specializing in distributed generation models at residential, commercial, and industrial levels, as well as isolated supply projects. The energy sector ecosystem in Mexico has undergone significant changes in recent years. However, it remains one of the most promising areas of opportunity, especially with the increasing nearshoring trend in the country. Industrial development will inevitably require a higher capacity for electricity generation, and the various generation alternatives offer different options for both companies in the sector and potential clients. The energy field encompasses a wide range of topics, from regulatory compliance within the sector to the design of corporate structures and contractual models involving suppliers, authorities, and end customers. Moreover, with the growing demand for ESG services, the sector has become one that provides solutions and alternatives for reducing companies' carbon footprints, as well as developing sustainability-focused initiatives, such as energy efficiency projects.
