The CFE was created in 1937 by presidential decree and later converted by the Congress of the Union in 1949 into a decentralized public agency of the federal government.
As part of the energy reform, the CFE was converted into a productive State company in October 2014, giving it greater technical, operational and budgetary autonomy to fulfill its purpose of creating economic value for the Mexican State.
The CFE had a net loss of 106,260 million pesos in 2021, an increase of 24% over 2020.
