I don't really know a lot about any of this - just what I read online. I posted in other recent threads about fuel that we saw pipelines in the US going to Mexico. I later learned these are natural gas pipelines. I also read power plants in Mexico are converting to natural gas. In the US coal and diesel plants are converting to natural gas because it has become much cheaper - and it is cleaner - not perfect but better. I read that as many as 60% of power plants in Mexico have now converted to natural gas or are in the process of converting. We have seen the pipelines being built and have read about them and posted about them in threads here.
SO - QUESTION? Will converting to cheaper natural gas lower the cost of electricity once the pipelines are completed? Also - opening Mexico to new drilling and drilling technology means Mexico could have more of their own natural gas. Do you guys know much about this and what is going on with all of that? I only know what I can find online but those living in Mexico probably get to see a lot more information in the news etc.
