On March 18, 2025, the decree issuing the secondary legislation for the energy sector was published in the Federal Official Gazette (Diario Oficial de la Federación). This legislative set includes both new laws and amendments to existing laws, which will remain in effect with significant modifications.
The new energy laws and reforms entered into force on March 19, 2025. In most cases, the new legislation repeals or modifies various laws and provisions that had been in place since 2014, originally enacted to regulate the 2013 Constitutional Reform, which promoted the opening of the sector to private participation.
