Description
The project is an allocation under the Mexico Climate Action framework loan which will be intermediated by NAFIN (Nacional Financiera). The project concerns the construction of a 199.5 MW wind farm in Mexico. The wind farm comprises 95 wind turbine generators (WTGs), rated at 2.1 MW each, and associated infrastructure, including access roads, control centre and interconnection to the grid.
Objectifs
The project aims to help meet the Mexican national target of 35% of electricity generated from renewable energy sources by 2024. It is also consistent with the EIB's objectives outside the European Union, contributing to the promotion of renewable energy generation, and will contribute to the attainment of the UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) on climate action.

Aspects environnementaux
If the plant was located within the EU it would fall under Annex II of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive (2011/92/EU), requiring the competent authorities to determine whether an EIA is required. Following Mexican national legislation a full EIA is mandatory for the project. Due to the specificities of the land tenancy in Mexico and the vulnerability of certain groups, the social impact will be carefully assessed at appraisal. Compliance with the EIB's environmental and social standards, with national law and EU environmental and social principles with particular reference to EU environmental horizontal directives, stakeholder engagement, access to information and impact on biodiversity and cumulative impact will also be verified at appraisal.
