A new wind farm that will be Mexico’s largest and one of the biggest in Latin America will be inaugurated Monday in Reynosa, Tamaulipas.
The $600 million Reynosa I project will have the capacity to produce 424 megawatts of energy annually and supply electricity to 900,000 people.
The 8,000-hectare wind farm was built by the Spanish firm Acciona Energy for the Mexican company Zuma Energía.
It will prevent the emission of 739,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every year.
The company will eventually operate four other wind farms: Reynosa II, III and IV at the same site and Reynosa V at a different location 14 kilometers (nine miles) away.
