EvolvX positions itself as a key player in the analysis and consulting sector of sustainable mobility. This year, during the Latam Mobility & Net Zero Mexico 2024, Ronaldo Sandoval, Director of Analysis & Consulting, revealed the Second Report on Sustainable Mobility in Mexico.
This initiative emerged a year ago with the purpose of addressing the needs of the sustainable mobility community in Latin America, aiming to provide reliable and updated data, as well as to share knowledge with all stakeholders interested in the mobility ecosystem.
During each of the meetings in collaboration with Lata Mobility, a brief presentation is made to familiarize attendees with the current market and key components of sustainable mobility.
“We thank the more than 60 partners and 1,200 attendees who have made this event the largest version we have conducted so far, with the participation of over 90 speakers,” Sandoval assured.
Components of Sustainable Mobility
When we talk about sustainable mobility, it is essential to consider the energy matrix and the charging infrastructure. “We are not only promoting new technologies and vehicles, but we must also take into account the entire ecosystem surrounding them,” he continued.
To advance sustainable mobility, a robust charging network, clean energy, and, of course, financing are required. “All of this is insufficient if we do not have trained professionals who are genuinely interested in strengthening and executing these strategies,” he pointed out.
Electricity Consumption in Mexico
It is contradictory to want to electrify fleets if the energy comes from non-clean and non-renewable sources. “The transportation sector consumes the least amount of electricity, although there has been an increase in consumption compared to the previous year,” Sandoval stated.
Regarding the behavior of the sustainable mobility market in Mexico, he highlighted the growth in the sale of low-emission vehicles, noting that this year has seen the highest number of zero and low-emission vehicles sold in the country, especially hybrid and electric vehicles.
Projections and Future
The energy matrix of Mexico seeks to decarbonize by increasing its capacity from clean and renewable sources. The automotive fleet is growing, and it is important for companies and institutions to organize themselves to meet this increasing demand.
“Only in the first three months of the year, over 4.6 billion dollars have been invested in 18 electromobility projects, generating more than 17,000 jobs in the country,” commented the Director of Analysis & Consulting at EvolvX.
Finally, this report presented in Mexico City is part of a larger document that includes data from 2016 to September 2024, detailing the evolution of the market and investments in this sector.
