The exchange of experiences on the SCE between companies in the electric power generation sector demonstrates the growing interest in contributing to the mitigation of climate change from their trenches.

On September 10, the fourth and final technical webinar was held as part of a series of virtual sessions aiming to strengthen capacities linked to the importance of the participation of the electric power sector in the Emissions Trading System (ETS). Participants exchanged experiences in theoretical and practical sessions.

One activity involved the identification of projects that could contribute to reducing emissions at their facilities. There were also presentations on the operation of the European Trading System (EU ETS), and other by the government body SEMARNAT on the monitoring plan, differences, and similarities between the ETS and the National Emissions Registry (RENE), and a final session addressing the monitoring system.

These events were organised by the Environmental Protection Management of the Federal Electricity Commission in coordination with the GIZ project SiCEM. Given the type of participants, these sessions set a precedent for collaboration between the public and private sectors of the national energy sector on the ETS. Their participation in these events shows the growing interest in contributing to the mitigation of climate change from their trenches.

These sessions took place between February and September 2021, with about 60 people present. FactorCO2 consultants, who presented various international experiences regarding the implementation of a European ETS, supported this learning network.

This learning network represents the first effort to apply the work methodology in the ETS context; it also shows how joint work between different sectors–including organisers, participants, and authorities–is of great importance for successful ETS implementation in Mexico.
