en.Wedoany.com Reported - Mexico currently has 7,413 megawatts of installed wind power capacity, operating through 71 wind farms and accounting for 8.26% of the national electricity system. According to official targets, 45% of electricity generation will come from renewable sources by 2030, and the country's wind power sector is in an expansion phase. By the end of 2025, 20 new wind projects have been approved, while another 28 projects are awaiting approval from Mexico's Ministry of Energy and the Mexican Wind Energy Association.

Wind power development is concentrated in strategic regions, with three states leading national production. The Isthmus of Tehuantepec in Oaxaca is the area with the highest wind density, where the Eurus wind farm and the Oaxaca I, II, III, IV complexes harness persistent winds crossing from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean. Tamaulipas has positioned itself as the second most important hub, with the Reynosa wind farm being one of the largest in Mexico by area and scale, and new complexes planned for locations such as Ciudad Victoria and Tampico. Wind farms like Ventikas and El Mezquite in Coahuila and Nuevo León utilize border interconnection infrastructure to supply power to heavy industry. The states of Puebla, Yucatán, and Baja California (Sierra Juárez wind farm) are also increasing their participation.

Under a mixed public and private sector investment plan, approximately 85 billion pesos will be injected between 2026 and 2028. The technical goal is to exceed 10 gigawatts of installed capacity by the end of this decade, which involves not only installing more wind turbines but also modernizing transmission lines to integrate clean energy from places like Zacatecas and Jalisco into the national grid. With projects restarting and capital inflows increasing, wind energy is once again confirmed as an engine for Mexico to diversify its energy mix, reduce carbon emissions, and secure a sustainable electricity supply for the future.
