The president said that it is Pablo Daniel Taddei Arriola, son of the delegate of the Ministry of Well-being in Sonora, and reiterated that the governor of that state, Alfonso Durazo, will be the coordinator of the entire comprehensive plan to guarantee that the projects are consolidated, related to this new company.

It is proven, he said, that the largest deposits of this mineral are in Sonora, it is also giving the opportunity and responsibility to a young man from Hermosillo, who studied a bachelor’s degree, has a master’s degree, in November he has his doctorate, and has the conditions to hold the position.

Yesterday, López Obrador received Durazo at the National Palace to develop a plan to help turn Sonora into a state that generates renewable energy and is the center of lithium battery production.

He recalled that the largest solar energy production plant in Latin America is starting up, in Puerto Peñasco, which will serve to bring energy to the state of Baja California.

We have the market, that is important, for electricity in Baja California, there are sufficient lithium reserves, there is already an automobile plant, we also have the border with Arizona and California in the United States, so there are unbeatable conditions, the official said. We are going to consolidate the plan and it will be extended to Chihuahua and other northern states, he stressed.

López Obrador assured he will promote renewable energies to bring Sonora closer to the United States economy and mentioned that the lithium company will be working with public and private investment because a large budget is required.

In addition, it will serve to reach the goal of using only electric cars in the country in the next decade, he explained.
