The development of sustainable energy projects at the local level is key to promoting the energy transition and climate protection. Furthermore, its correct implementation will maximize the positive effects by unleashing additional benefits within the environmental, social and economic pillars.<\/p>\n
The GIZ<\/a>, through the Enhancing the Coherence of Climate and Energy Policies in Mexico (CONECC<\/a>) project, in coordination with the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT<\/a>), held a presentation meeting to establish the preliminary bases of the pilot program for the quantification of co-benefits, one of the main milestones of the second phase of the Co-Benefits M\u00e9xico project<\/a>. The objective is to provide tools to public policy makers in order to incorporate the co-benefits of sustainable energy into decision-making processes, by quantifying its positive results and thus creating a greater socio-economic impact.<\/p>\n Jonas Russbild, Director of the CONECC Project, shared a welcome message for the selected projects and took the opportunity to give an introduction on the accompaniment that GIZ provides in Mexico as a catalyst for national efforts for climate action. In turn, Mart\u00edn Aguilar, on behalf of SEMARNAT, stressed that this is a great opportunity to make visible and account for the potential benefits derived from strengthening capacities and actions to mitigate climate change.<\/p>\n Esta ma\u00f1ana tuvimos una reuni\u00f3n de arranque del programa piloto de cuantificaci\u00f3n de #cobeneficios<\/a> econ\u00f3micos, sociales y ambientales para seis proyectos seleccionados de #Energ\u00edaRenovable<\/a> y #EficienciaEnerg\u00e9tica<\/a> situados en cinco estados de la Rep\u00fablica Mexicana 🍃💡🤝. pic.twitter.com\/Xrl1ga0hBK<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Conecc_Mx (@Conecc_Mx) January 29, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
