Opposition candidate Xochitl Galvez Ruiz proposed the conversion of the thermoelectric plant to natural gas, a plant located in the municipality of Tula, Mexico’s Central state of Hidalgo, in order to reduce pollution from this power plant, and she reiterated her commitment to bring back the clean-energy auctions, as well as to continue advancing towards electromobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cToday Mexico City is declared in environmental contingency. Mrs. [Claudia] Sheinbaum, when she was opposition, said that she was betting on Tl\u00e1loc ,\u201d said the standard-bearer for the \u201cForce and Heart for Mexico\u201d coalition.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
At a real estate industry event, held in the country’s capital, Galvez Ruiz criticized the recent declarations of environmental contingency in the Valley of Mexico last week due to the high levels of ozone and other pollutants in the region’s atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cToday they are betting on Tl\u00e1loc to end the environmental contingency,\u201d said the presidential candidate in relation to the expected rains that would disperse pollutants. And do you know what has to be done in Mexico City? To inject gas into Tula thermoelectric plant. It’s that easy,\u00bb she said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
According to studies by environmental organizations, the Tula thermoelectric plant, owned and operated by the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE), is responsible for approximately 33 percent of particle pollution in the Valley of Mexico, by mainly burning fuel oil to generate energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Likewise, before the representatives of real estate companies, the candidate said that her government will continue to promote electromobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cLet’s move to electric cars, more electric transportation. I can tell you that Mexico City can become the most transparent region, but we must take measures in environmental matters and we are going to take them,\u201d she promised.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Regarding the long-term electricity auctions, canceled by the current federal administration, Galvez Ruiz promised to relaunch them, in addition to promoting an initiative to increase from 0.5 to 10 megawatts (MW) electricity generation exempt from permits by the Regulatory Commission of Energy (CRE).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cSo that you don’t have to go around asking the CRE for permits, which has also become corrupt\u00bb, Galvez said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
