“This is also solid evidence of the transformation of Mexico's energy industry, where renewable energy is growing in importance in both economic and environmental terms.”

When completed, the Reynosa wind farm will supply sufficient clean sustainable energy to meet the demands of nearly one million people and prevent the annual emission of 739,000t of CO2.

With the latest agreement, ACCIONA seeks to boost its position in the Mexican renewable energy industry.

So far, the company has installed 556MW of capacity in Mexico.
