    El estudio del marco de evaluación del Mercado eléctrico mayorista de los Estados Unidos ofrece una perspectiva útil para el nuevo mercado de México. En primer lugar, se realiza un análisis de economía institucional de fuerzas y debilidades del operador del mercado mayorista en México (CENACE), el cual provee los fundamentos para la evaluación del mercado. Posteriormente, los marcos institucionales de evaluación observados en los Estados Unidos analizados en el presente trabajo, sirven de guía para establecer los aún no implantados “requerimientos mínimos” de los productos del mercado mayorista en México para el que el operador CENACE cuantifique su desempeño, independientemente del modelo de política eléctrica.

    Wholesale electricity market assessment frameworks from the US provide a useful perspective for Mexico’s new electricity market. First, an institutional economics analysis of strengths and weaknesses of Mexico’s ISO (CENACE) provides a foundation for market assessment. Then, assessment frameworks used by US regulators studied herein for wholesale market operators highlight a framework for minimum necessary characteristics of electricity market products for application in Mexico’s wholesale market.

    Such institutional frameworks could serve as future performance measures in CENACE, independent of the electricity policy model
