Ventika Wind Farms
The new wind power installations are located in the municipality of General Bravo, in the State of Nuevo León, and will comprise 84 3-MW ACCIONA wind turbines.
In 2014, ACCIONA was awarded the contracts for the Ventika and Ventika II wind farms, signed with a company formed by Fisterra Energy, a company majority owned by funds managed by Blackstone, CEMEX and private investors. The start of the commercial operation is expected to take place in the second quarter of 2016, and it will beone of the largest wind farms in Latin America. In environmental terms, it will prevent the annual emission of more than 600,000 tons of CO2.
