Director General for Foreign Trade, at the Ministry of Economy

edit

As Director General for Foreign Trade and President of the Foreign Trade Commission (COCEX). Mr. Hernandez led the Single Window for International Trade Project (Ventanilla Única de Comercio Exterior, VUCEM), together with Customs Mexico. It was the first large project that constructed a single electronic system to process customs and foreign trade authorizations in Mexico.[3] The Single Window was launched by President Felipe Calderón together with Bruno Ferrari, Secretary of Economy, on January 16, 2012.[4]

Mr. Hernandez also coordinated the development of Mexico's regulatory system for export controls. Together with officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Hernandez negotiated the accession of Mexico to the international export controls systems, the Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods and Technologies, the Australia Group, and the Nuclear Suppliers Group.[5] On January 20, 2012, Mexico was admitted to the Wassenaar Arrangement.[6]

Deputy Secretary of Energy for Electricity, at the Ministry of Energy

edit
 

Mr. Hernandez was a leading figure in the 2013-2014 Mexican Energy Reform. Initially he served as Chief Legal Counsel at the Ministry of Energy on February 1, 2013, and as Secretary of the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos (Pemex)[7] and Secretary of the Governing Board of Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE).[8] He served on those positions for one year.

On February 5, 2014, he was appointed Deputy Secretary of Energy for Electricity by President Enrique Peña Nieto.[9] As Deputy Secretary of Electricity between 2014 and 2017 he coordinated the design and implementation of the most comprehensive legal and regulatory reform in the power sector of Mexico since 1938, creating the wholesale electricity market, establishing an independent system operator, unbundling Mexico's national electric utility (CFE), and designing clean energy certificates to enforce the national clean energy goals for the sector. Furthermore, he led the team that designed and implemented the first three long-term power auctions for renewable energy that resulted in some of the lowest solar and wind electricity prices in the world in 2016[10][11] and 2017.[12]

During his four-year tenure as Mexico's Deputy Secretary of Energy for Electricity, César Hernández and his team at the Ministry of Energy worked in the implementation of Mexico's 2013 Constitutional Energy Reform. Among others, four new laws directly related to the electricity sector were published, and the Ministry of Energy electricity technical team coordinated by Dr. Hernández was instrumental in its drafting: the Electricity Industry Law and the Geothermal Energy Law,[13] the Law of the Federal Electricity Commission,[14] and the Energy Transition Law.[15]

Creation of Mexico's First Electricity Markets

edit

Additionally, during Dr. Hernández' tenure as Deputy Secretary, the Ministry of Energy wielded regulatory powers for the creation of a new Wholesale Electricity Power Market that would later be transferred to independent regulatory bodies (the Energy Regulatory Commission, CRE; and the National Center for Energy Control, CENACE). The 2014 Electricity Industry Law gave the Ministry of Energy powers to "issue the first Electricity Power Market Rules on one sole occasion".[16] Accordingly, several regulations were published as part of the first Electricity Power Market Rules. In this matter, the Secretary of Energy published the Bases of the Electricity Market (September 8, 2015)[17] along with several manuals.[note 1]

Creation and Implementation of Mexico's first Renewable Portfolio Standard

edit

In the matter of transition to clean energies, during Dr. Hernandez's tenure the Ministry of Energy published the Guidelines that establish the criteria for the granting of Clean Energy Certificates and the requirements for their acquisition (October 31, 2014),[30] and the Clean Energy Certificate Mandatory Requirements for 2018,[31] 2019,[32] 2020, 2021 and 2022.[33]

Independent Long Term Planning of Electricity System Development

edit

The Electricity Industry Law established that the Ministry of Energy would publish, each year, 15 year programs for the development of the Mexican electricity system (formerly planning was professional, but not independent, done by the national electric utility, CFE). In the matter of electricity system planning, during Dr. Hernández's tenure the Ministry published the first three Programs for the Development of the National Electricity System (PRODESEN), the 2015-2029 PRODESEN,[34] the 2016-2030 PRODESEN[35] and the 2017-2031 PRODESEN.[36] Additionally, it published the 2017 Smart Grid Program.[37]

Universal Access to Energy. Creation and Implementation of FSUE

edit

In the matter of universal access to electricity, during Dr. Hernández tenure, the Ministry of Energy created and started the operation of the Universal Electricity Service Fund (FSUE) established in the Electricity Industry Law, chaired by the Deputy Secretary of Energy for Electricity, which financed electricity access for over 800,000 Mexicans not previously covered. The Ministry published the Policies and Strategies for the electrification of rural communities and marginalized urban areas (March 29, 2017), which contemplated two different alternatives for taking electricity service to Mexicans no previously attended: a) extending coverage of CFE's basic service to communities located at a distance 5 km or less from the electricity distribution grid, and b) installing off-grid systems.[38] In implementation of the Policies and Strategies, the Universal Electricity Service Fund (FSUE), through CFE and FIDE, financed the extension of the distribution grid and the installation of off-grid electricity systems. By the end of 2017 CFE had extended service to 2,011 towns with 352,938 inhabitants not previously attended.[39] And FIDE, the government entity in charge of competitively assigning off-grid projects, reported that by the end of 2018, contracts had been assigned to 37 companies to develop off-grid projects in 1,596 towns, to provide electricity to 138,304 inhabitants not previously covered.[40]

Resignation from the Ministry of Energy

edit

Dr. Hernández resigned from the Energy Ministry on November 23, 2017.[41]

Federal Economic Competition Commission (COFECE)

On December 1, 2017, Dr. Hernández was appointed Head of the Unit for Planning, Institutional Relations and International Affairs (UPVAI) at the Federal Economic Competition Commission (COFECE), Mexico's federal antitrust agency.[42] UPVAI is the COFECE Unit in charge of, among other things, competition advocacy. During his ten-month tenure, COFECE published several competition advocacy studies, including "Rethinking competition in the Digital Economy" (March 1, 2018),[43] "Transition to Competitive Markets in Energy: LP Gas" (June 18, 2018),[44] "A Competition Agenda towards integrity in Public Procurement" (July 20, 2018),[45] and prepared "Market Power and Social Welfare" (October 12, 2018).[46] It organized, together with the Institute for Legal Research of UNAM, an International Seminar on Attorney-Client Privilege in Antitrust Investigations (May 30, 2018),[47] and published a recommendation to the Ministry of Communications and Transport to eliminate the exclusivity exercised by Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares (ASA), a government owned enterprise, in the services for storage, commercialization and retail of fuels for aircraft at national airports.[48]

Dr. Hernández left his position at COFECE on September 30, 2018, to become part of the Ministry of Economy transition team of President-elect López Obrador headed by future Secretary Graciela Márquez Colín; he was replaced by David Lamb de Valdés.[49]

CONAMER also promoted state laws that were harmonized with the institutions and provisions of the 2018 General Law. Thus, CONAMER published a Model State Law on Better Regulation (February 1, 2019), and promoted the approval and publication of State Laws on Better Regulation by the 32 Local Congresses of the country. Accordingly, Commissioner Hernández attended meetings of Local Better Regulation Councils and met with the Governors of the States of Campeche,[53] Chihuahua,[54] Colima,[55] Durango,[56] Guanajuato,[57] Jalisco,[58] Mexico,[59] Michoacán,[60] Querétaro,[61] San Luis Potosí,[62] Sonora,[63] Veracruz[64] and Yucatán.[65] By March 31, 2020, 27 such new State Laws on Better Regulation had been published.[66]

Law on the Promotion of Public Trust

edit

CONAMER promoted with Congress the approval of a new Law on the Promotion of Public Trust. The new Law regulates the work of inspectors and the conduct of inspections –in harmony with the General Law on Better Regulation-, and provides for benefits to citizens that declared to be in compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. CONAMER is the entity in charge of executing this new law. The Law, originally proposed by President-elect López, was passed by the Senate, the Chamber of Deputies, and published by President López Obrador.[citation needed] It was presented by President Lopez Obrador and the National Commissioner of CONAMER on the Presidential Morning Press Conference of January 30, 2020.[67] In implementation of the Law on Public Trust and of the General Law on Better Regulation (in the matter of federal inspections and inspectors), CONAMER published the Guidelines on the Implementation of the Law to Promote Public Trust (February 20, 2020),[68] and the Guidelines on the National Registry of Federal Inspections and Inspectors (February 19, 2020).[69] The Law on the Promotion of Public Trust provided for the creation on a new Registry of Public Trust incorporated in an electronic platform which was also presented by President López Obrador, the Secretary of Economy Graciela Márquez and the National Commissioner of CONAMER on the Presidential Morning Press Conference of .[70]

Resignation from CONAMER

edit

He resigned his position as National Commissioner at CONAMER on May 15, 2020. His resignation was reported by The Wall Street Journal: "César Hernández, head of the commission on regulatory improvement and one of the architects of the power-sector overhaul that allowed foreign and private investment in the electricity market, resigned Friday after the Energy Ministry requested a waiver from the commission to publish the new rules without a public consultation."[78] It was also reported in the US State Department 2020 Investment Climate Statement for Mexico: "CONAMER's widely-respected director, Cesar Hernandez, resigned May 15.  Hours later, the acting head of CONAMER waived the requirement for a Regulatory Impact Assessment for a controversial energy policy directive that could affect the viability of private sector power projects in Mexico's energy market."[79] Mexican political activist and academic John M. Ackerman celebrated: "César Hernández resignation is excellent news that shows we are moving in the right direction… Hérnandez was architect of the privatizing 2014 Energy Reform".[80]
