Wind power at the Centro Regional de Tecnologia Eólica in Mexico CASE STUDY: MEXICO—WIND POWER These projects in Mexico show the development of wind energy technology in a country, starting from creating the enabling environment, investments in the technology, and development and transfer of a technology for local production. In 2004, Mexico’s Electrical Research Institute and the UNDP started the “Action Plan for Removing Barriers to the Full-Scale Implementation of Wind Power in Mexico”. Under this Action Plan, Mexico accelerated the depreciation of investments in renewable energy technologies, began assessments on wind resources, started proposals on the legal, regulatory, and institutional framework, and started a green development fund. Further the Regional Wind Technology Centre (Centro Regional de Tecnología Eólica) was created, which aims to offer support to interested wind turbine manufacturers, means to train local technicians, an easily accessible national technology display that facilitates the encounter between wind turbine manufacturers and Mexican industries, and many more. The development of the La Venta II wind power project in Oaxaca (83.5 MW, which became operational in January 2007), supported by carbon financing, is an impact of the GEF project. The “Large Scale Renewable Energy Development Project” by the World Bank has: provided technical assistance to various Government of Mexico agencies involved in the wind sector, and supported a higher tariff for La Venta III, the first private wind Independent Power Producer with US$25 million GEF grant. The La Venta III wind farm will have an installed capacity of 102 MW. Construction started in 2009 and the facility is slated to come on stream in November 2010. The technology transfer pilot project “Promotion and Development of Local Wind Technologies in Mexico” by the IDB will support the local development of a national wind turbine market, by structuring a value chain for the production of goods and services at the national level in the wind energy sector, and by building human and technical capacities for the manufacturing, testing and certification of wind turbines.

Mexico has a tremendous wind energy potential conservatively estimated at more than 40 GW. However, its development has been extremely slow by global wind industry standards. This is due both to lack of adequate financial incentives for private developers and investors, as well as various issues with the existing regulatory framework and policies relating to wind energy.
