National Strategy for the Electric Sector

AXIS 2: Energy Justice

The National Electric Sector Strategy represents a fundamental pillar in the transition towards a more inclusive, sustainable and equitable energy model. Within this framework, Axis 2: Energy Justice focuses on ensuring that the benefits of energy are accessible to all, promoting not only access, but also the right to clean, affordable and sustainable energy.

What is Energy Justice?

Energy justice is a concept that seeks to address inequalities in access to energy resources. It is about ensuring that every community, regardless of location or socioeconomic status, can enjoy the benefits that come with the development of the electricity sector. This includes:

  • Equal access to electricity.
  • Sustainability in energy supply.
  • Fair and transparent prices.

Key Objectives of the Energy Justice Axis

  1. Reducing energy poverty: One of the biggest challenges in many communities is the lack of access to reliable electricity. This axis seeks to ensure that all families, especially those in marginalized areas, can meet their basic energy needs.
  2. Promote the use of renewable sources: Implementing solutions such as photovoltaic systems and hybrid networks in rural areas not only provides electricity, but also reduces environmental impact.
  3. Fair rates: Create mechanisms to maintain affordable prices, protecting the most vulnerable sectors from disproportionate cost increases.

Actions in Energy Justice

To achieve these objectives, the strategy includes:

  • Expanding electrical infrastructure: Extending electrical grids to remote communities and developing decentralized generation systems.
  • Promotion of social energy programs: Subsidies and support for low-income families that promote their access to clean and efficient technologies.
  • Implementation of sustainable policies: Design regulations that guarantee a balance between economic development, social inclusion and environmental care.

The Role of Solar Energy in Energy Justice

Solar energy plays a crucial role in the quest for energy justice. Systems such as solar panels and hybrid solutions make it possible to bring electricity to places where it was previously unthinkable, while reducing dependence on fossil fuels. In addition, their implementation creates local jobs and encourages economic development in marginalized communities.

Impact of Energy Justice on National Development

Equitable access to electricity not only improves people's quality of life, but also boosts the development of small businesses, improves education systems and strengthens health services in rural and urban regions. Energy justice is essential to closing social and economic gaps, aligning with global sustainable development goals.

Conclusion

Axis 2: Energy Justice is not only a commitment to vulnerable communities, but also an investment in the future of Mexico. Ensuring access to clean and affordable energy allows us to build a more equitable, sustainable country that is prepared for the challenges of a constantly evolving electricity sector.

At Corey Solar, we embrace this vision by promoting projects and technologies that advance energy justice and bring the benefits of renewable energy to communities. Together, we can transform Mexico's energy landscape toward a more just and sustainable future.
