Wind Power in Mexico Could Double in Three Years

Mexico’s wind energy is surging . In 2005, it had just three megawatts (MW), but by the end of this year that total will have increased to two gigawatts (2,000 MW). In three years, it will double. And, from that total of 4 GW, it will triple by 2020. The planned ramp-up will make Mexico the fastest growing wind power nation this year, of the top 20 economic national powers. “With strong wind through the south, consistent sunlight in the north and a stable market, Mexico is well positioned for continued renewables growth,” says Brian Gardner, Energy Analyst for the Economist Intelligence Unit. For example, a $600-million, 306-MW project (204 turbines) is being finished that reportedly will power 700,000 Mexican homes. La Ventosa is one of the hubs for wind power construction due to its consistent high winds. It is located in Oaxaca. Eighteen of Mexico’s twenty-seven wind po...
