Mexico’s National Water Commission (CONAGUA), known as XM, warns that reservoir levels could drop to a critical 13% by December due to the ongoing El Niño weather pattern. This significant decline raises concerns about the country’s hydroelectric power generation capacity. The unusually warm Pacific Ocean temperatures associated with El Niño are contributing to drier conditions across Mexico, impacting water storage. Further uncertainty surrounds the ability of hydroelectric plants to maintain power output with historically low reservoir levels. The situation poses potential challenges for the energy sector and highlights the vulnerability of water resources. Authorities are closely monitoring the situation and preparing for potential energy supply impacts. This decline may necessitate reliance on alternative energy sources to meet national demand.
