Résumé
Mexico’s goals of reducing carbon emissions and improving energy efficiency (EE) cannot be attained if EE indicators are not estimated. Nevertheless, given the lack of information at the state level, there do not yet exist EE indicators at the regional or state level. Using a stochastic production frontier model, this paper offers an estimation of EE for 29 states and identifies energy inefficiency determinants. The main findings are threefold: first, most states have improved their EE, except for Jalisco, Baja California and Veracruz. Second, three variables are identified as energy inefficiency drivers, namely, population density, market potential and high presence of materials industries. Third, electricity demand is not deterred through the price. The main limitation of this work is that due to data availability, the estimations only include electricity as the primary energy input.
