Resumen:

Mexico has committed in the Paris Agreement to ambitious greenhouse gas reductions by 2030. Their plan to meet these goals, summarized in their CCUS Technology Roadmap in Mexico, includes widespread deployment of CCUS technologies in power and other industries and includes utilization applications, particularly enhanced oil recovery (EOR). One of the main objectives is to set commitments for CFE, the power company, and PEMEX, the oil and gas company, to develop integrated CCUS projects, using CO2from power for EOR. Mexico recognizes that facilitating CCUS requires policy commitments, regulatory development, and technology advancement from pilot-scale to commercialization, but also workforce training. The Engineering School at the Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) and University of California's Berkeley Energy and Climate Institute (BECI) are collaborating to establish a Master's degree in engineering with specialization in CCUS and to explore international opportunities for joint research.
