Default major solar energy generation site in Baja California North

U.S.-based solar technology company SolFocus will lead the development of a major new solar energy generation site in the northern Mexican state of Baja California. The project, to be built in conjunction with Mexican real estate developer Grupo Musa and U.S. contractor Synergy Technologies, is projected to cost over US$1.5 billion and generate 450 Mw.

There is a huge slate of wind/solar farms being negotiated right now. The World Bank and a few large companies from Spain seem to be tripping over themselves in trying to work out deals with the ejidos.

Mexico is approaching the 30% mark in renewable energy production and is on a very good pace to leave the US in the dust if the next president/congress don't get their act together.
