Wind energy promtion

Mexico: Wind energy promotion

In Mexico, a  UNDP-GEF project expects to reduce national carbon dioxide emissions by 4 million tonnes per year by promoting the development of a commercial wind energy market with an installed capacity of 2000 megawatts by 2015. Succeeding in this effort will require education campaigns for government officials, hands-on technical training for engineers, and pre-feasibility studies of the country’s most promising wind energy sites.


Date Implemented: 2004

Status: In Force

Funding Information: $4.7 million UNDP/ GEF project

Targets: 2000 megawatts installed by 2015
