Developed and built by Gamesa, the $160m plant can generate over 250 million kWh of clean energy and can offset over 100 thousand tons of CO2 on an annual basis.

It is equipped with 37 Gamesa wind turbines of 2MW.

Enel Green Power CEO Francesco Starace said Bii Nee Stipa II is the company’s first venture into wind power technology in Mexico.

‘We will continue to grow in the Country with this technology as well as hydro, a sector in which we are already present in Mexico.

"We have development plans in this important Country, encompassing all the generation technologies we have at our disposal, given the major opportunities we can see in this sector.’
