President Claudia Sheinbaum announced a technical committee to study the return of modern fracking in Mexico to cut reliance on US natural gas imports. She distinguished it from traditional methods by using technologies that recycle water and avoid potent chemicals, boosting energy sovereignty. The process will take 10 to 15 years and require major investments.
President Claudia Sheinbaum proposed ‘friendly fracking’ to extract natural gas responsibly and bolster Mexico’s energy sovereignty. She explained that new technologies use biodegradable components and enable water recycling. Environmental organizations criticized the plan, stating that sustainable fracking does not exist.
