Each of the new projects will be supported by power purchase agreements with Mexico’s Cámara de Compensación.
Expected to enter service by the first half of 2020, the facilities will be able to produce 2.09TWh/year of renewable energy once fully operational.
The resulting output is expected to help avoid around 960,000t of carbon dioxide annually.
