Mexico, on the other hand, faces a 25% tariff on energy exports – such as its 450,000 barrels per day of crude shipments to the U.S. – unless those products meet USMCA requirements .

Therefore, Mexican exports are not subject to the general 10 percent ad valorem tariff applied to all imports from other countries. However, Mexico is explicitly included in other tariff provisions targeting specific product categories, particularly under Sections 3 (d) and 3 (e) of the executive order.

Although the electricity sector is not directly mentioned in the tariff discussions, its dependence on imported equipment, technology, and components—many of them from the United States—makes it vulnerable, affecting projects to modernize and expand Mexico’s electricity infrastructure.
