Global opportunities and challenges of DERs: a focus on legal issues and their solutions in MexicoAriel GarfioVon Wobeser y Sierra, Mexico Cityagarfio@vwys.com.mxAlejandro BeasVon Wobeser y Sierra, Mexico Cityabeas@vwys.com.mxIntroductionIn the context of the global energy transition, Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) have emerged as a key component for the modernisation of energy systems. Challenges for DERs in MexicoRegulatory and legal complexityThe regulatory and legal framework in Mexico, which has historically favoured large centralised generators, presents significant challenges for the expansion of DERs.

I Thought Coming Out To My Mom Would Bring Us Closer. Then I Received Something Shocking In The Mail.

Google wants you to turn to its navigation appQueenie Wong | (TNS) Los Angeles TimesSearch giant Google wants people to use its navigation app for more than just finding directions and avoiding traffic.

Tech companies such as Meta, Apple and Microsoft have been responding to this change by infusing more generative AI tools into their products. Daniel said when Google Maps provides users answers to their questions, the company isn’t using individualized information to provide personal results but contextual ones.
