• Global CO2 emissions market (towards 40-60 dollars per Ton?).

• Voluntary policies of several countries (EU and its members, USA, China, India, Brasil) + local initiatives.

• Accelerated progress of renewable energy technologies by scientific and technological research.

43 countries have defined and implemented RE promotion policies .

These policies are exerting a decisive influence in the growth of RE markets:

Target setting for increased participation of REs in the energy sector,

Promotion of power generation,

Promotion of solar heating and cooling in the industrial and residential sectors,

Promotion of biofuels,

Voluntary policies of green power purchasing and introduction of green tariffs,

Promotion of RE at the municipal level,

Promotion of RE in the rural sector.

Policies for promotion of research and development in RE.

Worldwide examples of recent policy pro-RE

• 25 countries of the EU have defined an average target for 2010: 25% participation of RE in electricity generation and 12% in total energy consumption.

• Spain (Real ordinances of 1994,1997-98, 2002): 30% target for primary energy consumption from RE in 2020.

• China (RE law, January 2006): 15% target for primary energy consumption from RE in 2020, 60,000 MWe are planed.

• USA: increases budget for RE in 2006 (+65% biomass, +79% solar, +13% wind).

• Mexico has been doing some efforts to promote RE. Geothermal: 953 MWe, 30 year of development. Wind: 83 MWe, under construction. Solar: 25 MWe in a complex of 950 MWe Combine

cycle, under construction. Bioenergy: A law has been approved by the

congress and a very recent initiative to start the massive production of ethanol in order to have 7 mil 840 barrels by the end of 2012.

…….. but very limited.

In summary RE in Mexico

• Mexico requires a paradigm shift in the energy production Mexican hydrocarbon reserves will be depleted in

10 years at the current consumption and exportation rates.

Current energetic infrastructure makes Mexico highly dependent for technological reasons and importation of fuels (natural gas, gasoline).

The use of fossil fuels generates greenhouse gasses that contribute to the climate change.

• RE has the potential to solve the energetic problem of Mexico: They are an abundant resource in the country with

the potential to supply the energy demand in a sustainable manner in the cities and the countryside.

The country has the human resources to generate the research and development required for technology appropriation and to promote a national industry in RE.

This would imply the creation of tens of thousand of new jobs.

• To guaranty the sustainable development of the country, the Mexican government should compromise with a long term vision of RE exploitation. It is necessary to generate the policies, legal and

economic frameworks for the massive deployment of RE in the country.

A short, medium and long term national strategic plan for the utilization of RE must be generated.

A National Renewable Energy Commission and a National Renewable Energy Institute should be created, together with a national network of regional R&D&I centers in RE.
