Reuters.- Economy Secretary Raquel Buenrostro met with representatives of Canadian energy companies to review the “positive agreements” reached with the country’s president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, and they agreed to meet again at the end of February, the agency said on Monday. .
We share the names of the Canadian companies the Economy Secretary spoke to today:
The Canadian companies served by the Economic Secretary were: Northland Power, Canadian Solar and CDPQ.
López Obrador had already received those companies as well as Atco and Pattern, with the latter two no longer having outstanding electricity issues, Economía said.
The president said on Thursday he had met with four Canadian electricity companies and resolved concerns about their operation in Mexico, after repeated complaints from authorities and companies there about a change in the rules of the game.
A week earlier, at the Summit of North American Leaders held in the Mexican capital, López Obrador spoke with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about the matter, for which Ottawa and Washington began a process of consultation under the regional trade agreement, TMEC.

The Economy Ministry did not provide further details on when the next meeting will be held or which companies attended the meeting.
Since coming to power in 2018, López Obrador has promoted legal changes to favor the state’s Federal Electricity Commission (CFE), giving it dominance over foreign and renewable energy companies, including some from Canada. .
