Panama to have region's biggest wind farm in 2013

By next year, Panama will have Central America's biggest wind farm and one of the largest in Latin America.

Rafael Pérez, the director of Spanish-owned Unión Eólica Panameña, said that the farm will cover 19,000 hectares and requires a $440 million investment.

It will have a capacity of 220 megawatts, double the power of its competitors in Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Honduras, he added.
