President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) declared that “it is false that we do not support renewable or clean energies”, an issue that is considered within the seventh Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of the United Nations, which Mexico committed to promoting. .
He explained that to maintain low costs in the generation of electrical energy in Mexico, it was necessary to modify the Agreement of the National Energy Control Center (Cenace), which was misunderstood as an attack on renewable energy sources. What he did accept is that the aim is to strengthen the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) and not allow only the private initiative to obtain benefits.
"Now the businessmen have become environmentalists, but behind them is their business," he ironized, accusing that private initiative is taking clean energy as its banner to fight against the new measures in the sector.
Cenace announced the Agreement France Mobile Number List to guarantee the efficiency, quality, reliability, continuity and security of the National Electrical System, which considers that the intermittent generation of wind and photovoltaic power plants affects the reliability of the National Electrical System in quality and, therefore, Therefore, during the current COVID-19 pandemic, fuel oil and thermoelectric plants will have priority.
AMLO commented that there is a State policy of not raising electricity rates for the end user. The aim is to have clearer rules and give fairer economic treatment to the CFE and provide greater transparency in the management of the energy that individuals upload to the electrical grid, with fair prices everyone wins, not just one sector, he explained.
The Ministry of Energy (Sener) has predicted that by 2030, renewable energies will together have just over 32% of total electrical energy generation.
CSOs ask for consistency in support for renewables
After the Mexican president's statement, the Citizen Observatory of Air Quality announced that the Cenace Agreement has no technical or legal justification and has very severe implications on health issues, since it benefits the generation of dirty, expensive and obsolete electricity. .
In addition to this, he said, it threatens compliance with the objectives of the General Climate Change Law.
For Greenpeace, renewable sources are accessible, clean and sufficient energy that can substantially improve the quality of life of the population and stop climate change. Furthermore, they are an alternative that is completely within our reach, since Mexico has abundant solar and wind resources sufficient to generate 100% of its energy.
The Mexican Center for Environmental Law (Cemda) indicated that the use of renewable energies should be one of the essential measures to confront climate change and comply with Mexico's national and international commitments regarding the reduction of pollutants. Mexico is the leader in CO2 emissions in Latin America, with 477 megatons of carbon dioxide (MtCO2) emitted per year.
The World Resources Institute (WRI) Mexico indicated: "now more than ever, in the face of the deep economic crisis that is looming and the needs for a quick recovery of the economy affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, it is necessary to generate jobs through of private and public investment in renewable energies.
