EEI 2025 - International Exhibition for Electronic Components and Production Equipment in Mexico

Exhibition Date: June 3-5, 2025
Organizer: Vanexpo SA de CV
Venue: Banamex Exhibition Center, Mexico City, Mexico

As the most influential industry event in Central America, the successful organization of Expo Eléctrica International reflects the huge market demand and development potential of Mexico and neighboring countries in the fields of power, electronics, and energy.

Exhibition core value and market positioning

1. Industry Influence

The 27 mature operations, over 20,000 square meters of exhibition scale, and 20,000+ professional visitors have proved that it has become the benchmark exhibition in the field of power electronics in Latin America, covering components, power equipment, lighting, new energy, and other industrial chains.
The Power Show, Lighting Show, and 100+ professional conferences held in the same period form a synergistic effect, attracting global manufacturers, buyers, and government agencies to participate in the show, helping enterprises to quickly dock with the regional market.

2. Positive feedback from exhibitors

The high renewal rate of old exhibitors indicates that the exhibition is highly effective and suitable for Chinese enterprises to explore the Mexican and Central American markets through this platform, especially the equipment and technology related to the upgrade of power infrastructure.

Status quo and crisis of the Mexican power industry

1. Outstanding contradiction between supply and demand

Risk of power shortages: average annual power demand growth of 5.6%, but outdated infrastructure (nearly half of the thermal power equipment is over 30 years old) and transmission and distribution networks lagging, resulting in insufficient supply capacity.
Energy dependency dilemma: high share of natural gas for power generation (~60%), but insufficient domestic capacity and reliance on US imports (1 billion cubic feet per day), while the US’s own soaring natural gas prices could threaten supply stability.

2. Investment Gaps and Opportunities

Ten-year $52 billion investment plan: focus on power stations (38.8%), transmission and distribution networks (45.5%), and maintenance works (12.8%), Chinese companies can focus on:
Power generation: construction of renewable energy (wind, photovoltaic) and high-efficiency gas-fired power plants.
Grid renovation: smart grid technology, transformers, high-voltage cables, and digital management systems.
Maintenance and upgrading: replacement of old equipment, automation control equipment, and energy-saving technologies.

Suggestions for Mexican Exhibitors

1. Focus on developing fields

Power equipment: transformers, circuit breakers, smart meters, and other transmission and distribution equipment are in strong demand.
New energy solutions: Mexico plans to make renewable energy account for 35% by 2024, with huge potential for photovoltaic modules, energy storage systems, and wind power equipment.
Energy-saving technology: to address the problem of high energy consumption of industrial electricity, promote high-efficiency motors, inverters, and other products.

2. Policy and Market Risk Tips

Localization cooperation: The Mexican government encourages foreign investors to participate in energy projects, but they need to meet the requirements of the Energy Reform Act, and it is recommended to set up joint ventures or branches with local enterprises.
Trade barriers: Some power equipment needs to be certified by NOM, so it is necessary to plan the compliance process in advance.

3. Exhibition Strategy

Contact key decision makers such as the Mexican Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) and the Ministry of Energy through exhibitions to understand the bidding project information.
Utilize the concurrent meetings to release technical solutions and strengthen the professional image of the brand.

Exhibit industry content

Mexico’s power market will continue for more than 10 years of high growth cycle, if you can seize the grid transformation, new energy substitution and natural gas power generation upgrade of the three main lines, combined with the exhibition platform for rapid layout, is expected to occupy the first opportunity in the energy transition in Latin America. It is necessary to pay close attention to the changes in the U.S. natural gas export policy and the adjustment of Mexico’s energy policy, and flexibly adjust the market strategy.
