Another question posed was: “The Energy Reform proposes, among other things, to turn the Federal Electricity Commission and Pemex into public companies, thus prioritizing service guarantees for the country and focusing on service rather than productivity. Are you in favor or against the Energy Reform?” 62 percent responded “yes, in favor,” 15 percent said “against,” and 23 percent said “don’t know/didn’t answer.”

What does the Energy Reform entail?

The Energy Reform aims, among other things, to make the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) and Pemex public companies, giving them priority in guaranteeing service to the nation and focusing on service rather than productivity.

Regarding the CFE, reforming Articles 25, 27, and 28 of the Constitution would restore the original intent, which states that electricity is not a commodity but a human right.

Additionally, the reform includes regulations on lithium use, reserving it for state use and preventing monopolies, which will be established in Articles 27 and 28 of the Constitution.
