Abstract
The production of electricity is a necessity of modern life and Mexico does not escape it. Mexico ranks 51st in the Global Electricity Competitiveness Index, according to World Economic Forum studies. Where the following sources of energy production are used. Conventional Technology: Combined Cycle, Conventional Thermoelectric, Carb, Turbo Gas, Internal Combustion, Nuclear Power. Clean and Renewable Energy: Hydroelectric, Wind, Geothermal, Solar Photovoltaic and Solar Thermal. Electrical power is also imported from the United States. The objective of this research is to make known other possibilities of generating electricity that have not been explored in Mexico or contemplated in the Program for the Development of the National Electrical System (PRODESEN, 2018-2032). The hypothesis put forward as a proposal is that the 38 million motor vehicles that exist and circulate on the country’s roads and highways can be used to generate electricity through piezoelectric generators and wind turbines. Based on the planning scenario estimates, the maximum integrated demand of the National Interconnected System (SIN) projects an average annual growth of 3.2% between 2018 and 2032. To achieve this growth, it is necessary to consider all the possibilities of energy production and its profitability.
