Mexican renewable electricity targets have increased.

A new law in December sets renewable electricity targets at 25% by 2018, 30% by 2021 and 35% by 2025. Mexican installed capacity was 25.3% renewable energy in 2015, but renewables accounted for only 18.2% of output, according to Javier Felix with Chadbourne in Mexico City.
