Friday, March 28, 2014


Latin America's largest solar power plant, a facility with 39 MW of generating capacity, has gone online in the northwestern Mexican state of Baja California Sur.

The Aura Solar I photovoltaic power plant was inaugurated by Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto on Wednesday and will supply electricity to the city of La Paz.

The energy industry reforms implemented last December will help lead to "more energy generation, cleaner energy and, above all, cheaper energy to help make Mexico a more competitive country," Peña Nieto said.
