Solar Energy in Mexico: Is the alternative to oil shortages?

As we know most of the Mexicans, Mexico is highly dependent on the production and economic gains provenienen oil. Oil has been and is the main source of energy not only in Mexico but worldwide, however due to the negativity that generates environmental impacts of energy production using fossil fuels in recent years has increased interest and development into alternative energy technologies GENERATOR. Technological mechanisms to generate such energies renewable calls in many cases have existed for several years, long before they start the international controversy over climate change. At present, the scientific and technological development in this field, focuses on optimizing the processes so they are suitable to be applied to large-scale, cost-benefit less than those derived from the exploitation of fossil fuels. Thus, competition for energy market on the international and local level is booming, with an increasing number of companies with claims and potential to dominate global power generation and distribution.

do not need visionary skills, to recognize that power generation is and will be the engine of our society, without energy, we simply could not conceive or "enjoy" the modern life we \u200b\u200bhave developed. For this simple reason, many governments in many countries are developing strategic plans in order to find the best ways to generate energy alternatives so that no economy and hence social stability is not at the mercy of what other countries they can offer under their particualr conditions. As is becoming custom, Mexico, seems to be left behind, waiting for what the foreign market and issue it has to offer. Although the speech was talk that they are supporting alternative energy generation, the reality is different, when face the facts with words.

Recently, the city of Guanajuato hosted the Global Renewable Energy Forum where Pelosse Helene, director of the International Energy Agency (IRENA), pointed out that Mexico has the potential to generate solar energy derived from its location in the balloon and its geology. As development on such technologies aprticular could become the engine that drives our economy. Should be added that not only the country has potential for solar energy genererar but also wind, geothermal, and water. Mexico is a country with a variety of climatic and topographic conditions that would allow the flexibility of options. Not only that, we also have intellectual resources and research institutes (eg Energy Research Center, ICN, UNAM) that have generated the knowledge and technology base to make this possible.
So why would seem that this is not a matter of national importance or that we are incompetent to develop our own technology?; If the power supply is controlled and operated by the state , Would not it make more sense, that PEMEX will earmark part of their gains and were the main driver exploación towards alternative energy? Moreover, should not be synergy between PEMEX and CFE (and the former LFC) to develop and implement a large scale these technologies? Instead, we already have a flock of greedy businessmen, among them Carlos Slim, said board assistant interested in develop and dominate the domestic supply.

When the government is the true representation of the interests of society, then I observe results, the bad, that sounds more than a dream, illusion, utopia with touches of anger and apathy. The only truth and certainty so far, is that Mexico, have the potential to produce alternative energy and also renewable, because one is not synonymous with the other. The uncertainty is, when will see what happens, and even more who will be to monitor its implementation?
