Not really. Mexico is a major producer of electricity, even exporting some surplus to the southwestern United States.

The main issue you may find in Mexico, related to electricity, is the power sockets, which adhere to the NEMA 1-15 (2 flat pins) standard. Some others use the American-adopted NEMA5-15, which include the third, ground pin. To be on the safe side, you should bring a converter (it costs only a couple of cents).

Most of it comes from oil-fueled thermoelectric centrals (68.5%), followed by hydroelectric plants (21.9%), coal-fueled (5.1%), nuclear (2.7%) , geothermal (1.7%), and wind-powered (0.2%) plants.

Of course: it is a 21.16 million city with electricity; some of it generated by nuclear power (Mexico has a couple of nuclear reactors close to the Gulf of Mexico).
