Historically, the main applications of solar energy technologies in Mexico have been for non-electric system applications for , water heating and drying crops. As in most countries, wind power development preceded solar power initially, due to the lower installation cost. Since solar power is not available during the night, and because wind power tends to be complementary to solar, a mix of both can be expected. Both require substantial

Compressed-air-energy storage (CAES) is a way to for later use using . At a scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during periods. The first utility-scale CAES project was in the Huntorf power plant in , and is still operational as of 2024 . The Huntorf plant was initially de.

Electricity can be stored directly for a short time in capacitors, somewhat longer electrochemically in , and much longer chemically (e.g. hydrogen), mechanically (e.g. pumped hydropower) or as heat. The first pumped hydroelectricity was constructed at the end of the 19th century around in Italy, Austria, and Switzerland. The technique rapidly expanded during the 196.
