The Emissions Trading System (ETS) in Mexico is a reality, and its Pilot Program will begin on January 1st, 2020. In this context, GIZ’s project “Preparation of an Emissions Trading System in Mexico” continuously carries out capacity building activities for the facilities required to participate within the ETS so that they have the theoretical and practical tools in order to participate in the System.
Within this framework, the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE), the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT) and the ETS project implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (German Cooperation for Sustainable Development, GIZ) on behalf of the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU), joined forces and organized the workshop “Introduction to the Emissions Trading System (ETS) for representatives of the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE)”, with the main objective of building capacities for compliance with the ETS in participating facilities of this System in Mexico. The workshop was held on April 1st and 11th at the facilities of the CFE in Mexico City.
