To be located in La Paz, the capital of Baja California Sur state, the plant is expected to be operational in June 2016.
The Baja California Sur V power plant will burn residual fuel oil to produce electricity through internal combustion motors.
The technology will optimise the crude oil cycle and minimise its environmental impact in the region.
