Battery System Integration in Mexico

Will Mexico be key to the development of lithium batteries?

We believe Mexico will be key to the future of the development of lithium batteries as home to the world’s largest single lithium field – “La Ventana” in Sonora. The country likely holds around 17 other deposits, across Baja California Sur, Coahuila, San Luis Potosí, Sonora and Zacatecas, that are largely undeveloped.

Can lithium batteries be used for electric vehicles in Mexico?

As one of the most crucial automobile manufacturing countries, Mexico has recognized the potential of lithium batteries to advance the field of electric vehicles. The present work aims to provide an overview of lithium batteries in Mexico for electric vehicles and highlights the research topics and the current state of the art.

Will Mexico develop energy storage technologies in the next decade?

However, we expect Mexico to develop its energy storage technologies significantly over the next decade, as well as its lithium mining industry, as it increases its renewable energy capacity as part of a global green energy transition.

Are Mexico's energy storage operations in a nascent stage?

Mexico’s energy storage operations are in their nascent stage compared to more widespread developments in the U.S. and several European countries.

Could Mexico's energy sector be nationalized?

Mexico has the potential to leverage its resource power, with its huge lithium reserves, to play an integral role in the future of the global battery sector. However, the nationalization of its energy sector could somewhat hinder this possibility.

Can energy storage save energy costs in Mexico?

FRV will assume all investment and operational costs, the company said. Image: FRV. Energy storage can improve power quality and reduce electricity costs for industrial entities in Mexico, and a new international partnership is offering the technology to customers in a shared savings model.
