Sweeping changes to Mexico’s clean energy regulations by president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador’s administration has sparked a legal backlash from the industry.
In October, Mexico’s energy ministry said it would grant older, government-run projects the same energy certificates — known as CELs — as the new projects the certificates were designed to support. Now, clean energy companies representing 14 projects and almost half of all CELs issued have sued to block the changes from taking effect.
