Initiated in 2013, the seven-year Ecohome programme, also known as "EcoCasa €, is managed by the government Federal Mortgage Society (Sociedad Hipotecaria Federal - SHF) and supported by the German KfW Development Bank (KfW, 2014). The aim is to promote energy efficient social housing that reduces CO2 emissions by 20% to 40% compared to typical existing buildings (baseline house).

The eligible technologies covered by the programme include insulation of ceilings and walls, reflective paint, efficient gas heaters and others. EcoCasa has expanded its scope over time and now integrates new sustainability criteria such as water consumption, housing environment and carbon footprint of construction materials.

The SHF offers low-interest loans to project developers who invest in sustainable houses for low- and middle-income people. The requirements are defined by bioclimatic zone.

By May 2018, the programme had certified 56 307 houses and financed 47 302 (84%), establishing contracts with 75 project developers for 201 projects. Other accumulated results are:

1 801 824 tCO2e reductions over the house lifespan.

219 597 Mexicans Beneficiaries in 22 States.

Overall, the EcoCasa programme will invest approximately USD 230 million. The KfW Development Bank is providing a loan of EUR 128 million (euros) to SHF of which USD 102 million is from the Inter-American Development Bank (IADB). The programme is also one of the first to make use of USD 15.6 million from Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Action (NAMA) financing.

The $7 Trillion AI Boom Is Turning Into The Energy Trade of the Century

You might think that Shark Tank’s “Mr. Wonderful,” Kevin O’Leary, is betting it all on AI, but he is not. He is betting on the $5+ trillion in infrastructure required to run it, and that’s where big capital is flowing now. And he’s betting on Bitzero (NASDAQ: AIBZ) to be one of the first to break AI’s biggest chokepoint: power. Bitzero was looking further ahead while most of the rest of the market was narrowly focused on AI software and semiconductors. As a result, on May 5th, Bitzero…

Oil Markets Are Pricing A Supply Surge That Isn’t Guaranteed

Crude oil prices are in freefall after the United States and Iran agreed on a ceasefire, set to last 60 days. Traders expect the ceasefire to unleash an avalanche of crude, and indeed, tankers are leaving the Persian Gulf in growing numbers. And yet Iran just struck a commercial ship in Hormuz. Bloomberg reported earlier this week that the ceasefire prompted huge discounts in available crude cargoes, noting how Angolan crude was selling at a $10 discount to dated Brent—for the first time in a decade. Not only this, but Chinese refiners were…

The World's Biggest Energy Bet Is No Longer on Fossil Fuels

For years, critics of the energy transition have made essentially the same argument. Renewable energy was supposedly too expensive, too dependent on subsidies, too intermittent, and too vulnerable to survive a serious energy security crisis. Sooner or later, they argued, governments and investors would return to the comfort of oil, gas, and coal. The latest figures from the International Energy Agency suggest the opposite is happening. According to the IEA's newly released World Energy Investment 2026 report, global investment in clean energy has…

The World Is Racing to Develop New Nuclear Fuels

In the age of the nuclear renaissance, several countries are strategising to significantly increase their nuclear energy capacity over the coming decades, as part of efforts to diversify their energy mix and boost long-term energy security. However, securing fuel to power operations has been complicated, particularly following the introduction of sanctions on Russian energy products. Now, alternative uranium fuels offer promise for the nuclear energy industry. Nuclear fission, used in all existing nuclear power plants, is the process in which an…

China Eyes a Major Opportunity in Post-War Iran

Beijing is positioning itself to lead the post-war reconstruction effort in Tehran - a move analysts suggest could secure China long-term access to critical Iranian oil reserves. The diplomatic groundwork was laid during a recent meeting in New Delhi between Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and the deputy secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, according to Nikkei Asia. The talks underscore China's broader strategy to expand its economic and diplomatic footprint in the Middle East amid the vacuum left in the wake of one failed US…
