On April 21, leaders of the California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA), the California Energy Commission (CEC), and Mexico City signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to strengthen cooperation on energy, environmental protection, and climate action through October 2024, replacing a previous version signed in 2019.
At the signing ceremony, CalEPA Yana García noted that the MOU formalizes California and Mexico City’s “deep partnership and shared commitment to rapid decarbonization and transitioning to a clean energy economy. It also lays the groundwork for renewed cross-governmental collaboration on climate action, environmental protection, and energy.”
