1. Generation and compilation of statistics in
recent years in Mexico
Until beginnings of 80s Institutional
dispersion in production of information 1980-83
Need to order and regulate the production and
uses of information 2 important actions were
adopted Decree of the Law of Statistic and
Geographic Information (LIEG) in December 1980
and reformed in 1983 Creation of the INEGI in
February 1983

1. Generation and compilation of statistics in
recent years in Mexico
1983-2001 INEGIs role in the development of
information Balance increasing gap between
supply and the demand of statistics Creation of
the Ministry of Energy (1994) instead of the
Ministry of Energy, Mining and Industry of the
State Diverse and important problems to
solve What about manuals of United Nations
statistics energy?

2. Reorganizing and regulating the elaboration
and compilation of statistical and geographic
information
2000 A new federal government arrived and the
Ministry of Energy was restructured 2001 A new
administration at INEGI Another vision in
coordinating the development of
information Important changes in structure and
processes

2. Reorganizing and regulating the elaboration
and compilation of statistical and geographic
information

3. Lessons learned and perspectives
LESSONS INEGI has assumed its role as the
coordinator of the National System of Statistic
and Geographic Information SOME ACHIEVEMENTS
(2004-2006) INEGI elaborated the National
Program of Statistical and Geographical
Information (2004), and collaborates with the
ministries and federative entities in the
elaboration of the statistical and geographic
information programs Technical Committees and
Working Groups were established within each
government sector

3. Lessons learned and perspectives
The Ministry of Energy launched (2005) the System
of Energy Information (SEI) The National
Program of Statistical and Geographical
Information for Energy Sector was elaborated
(2006)

3. Lessons learned and perspectives
Fig. 2 - The Technical Committee of Statistic and
Geographic Information of Energy Sector


All of this agencies produce their own
information and provide data for the System of
Energy Information (SEI)

Fig. 3 The New Law of Statistic and Geographic
Information establishes 3 National Information
Subsystems
3. Lessons learned and perspectives

4. Some recommendations for improvement of Manuals
Usage of manuals of Energy Statistics in
Mexico A relevant diagnosis by Mr. Paul Cheung,
Director, UNSD Energy statistics is often not
included in the traditional work of statistical
offices. In the majority of countries, energy
ministries, agencies specialized in one fuel type
or in one particular flow, or sometimes large
energy companies, are responsible for energy
statistics. Country energy data is often produced
outside the system of official statistics.

(New York, 23-25 May 2005).

4. Some recommendations for improvement of Manuals
A diagnosis on the best practices for the
generation, compilation and systematization of
energy statistics will require 1. A
Questionnaire on best practices (the state of the
art) for the production and compilation of
Energy Statistics. Energy Ministry and the
national statistical office should participate.
2. Follow up the UNs recent experiences (i)
the UN Questionnaire on Environment Statistics
1999-2006, and (ii) the questionnaire for a
Global Assessment on Environment Statistics and
Environmental-Economic Accounting, promoted by
the UN Committee of Experts on EEA (UNCEEA)

4. Some recommendations for improvement of Manuals
3. Link and bridge energy statistics with
environment statistics and/or sustainable
development. The experience of IAEA for the
elaboration of Indicators for Sustainable Energy
Development can be used. 4. Mexico can
contribute its experience in improving the
manuals of Energy Statistics and Energy Accounts
towards 2010. Its work experiences on the matter
and with LAC countries can be useful.
