| description |
This report addresses a pressing issue
in Mexico's electricity sector the large and growing
subsidies to residential consumers and their regressive
incidence across different segments of the population. It
responds to requests from the Ministry of Energy to provide
a preliminary assessment of alternatives to the current
subsidy system, building on prior collaboration between the
Government of Mexico and the World Bank on the
distributional impact of public spending, the performance of
conditional cash transfer programs and other
poverty-targeted programs, and related work on pricing and
subsidies for infrastructure services. This study was
designed as the first phase of a multiphase program of
collaborative analytical work. This first phase provides
estimates of the distributional and fiscal performance of
alternative subsidy targeting mechanisms to help inform
discussion and deliberations on feasible goals and practical
approaches over the medium term. A second phase will address
transition paths, specific compensatory mechanisms, and
decision processes for pursuing the options that the Mexican
authorities deem most promising. |
