Energy regulation to promote geothermal energy in Mexico

in
Geothermal Electricity Production [4]

To assist the CRE in defining the necessary actions to promote the installation of geothermal projects, making use of the regulator’s new powers.

Location

Brazil
15° 46' 46.92" S, 47° 55' 46.92" W
See map: Google Maps [5]
Main activity and output: 
  • Hire consultant with international experience in order to assist CRE
  • Assist in developing a conceptual model of geothermal potential for power generation; one which will help to develop instruments and methodologies to promote geothermal use
  • Suggest the necessary changes to regulatory instruments so they may fit the policies established by the Energy Ministry
Expected impact: 
  • Regulations and policies in place that attract investment in geothermal energy projects from private sector developers
  • Increased geothermal energy capacity, particularly in the northwestern region of Mexico, where tectonic plate conditions make geothermal a feasible option
