This "NYMEX" case represents the use of the New York Mercantile Exchange futures gas prices and its impact on our long-term outlook on Mexico's power sector. Wood Mackenzie's gas price forecast - a key component of our Base Case, the Mexico gas, power and renewables investment horizon outlook 2023 - projects a rebound in Henry Hub prices with the next wave of LNG exports with a price averaging US$3.1/MMBtu over the 2024-2027 period. The growth rate moderates in the following years, with prices averaging US$3.8/MMBtu during 2028-2035. In contrast, NYMEX futures suggest a higher pricing path for the 2024-2027 period, positioning Henry Hub prices near US$3.7/MMBtu, followed by a marginally lower average of US$3.6/MMBtu for 2028-2035.
