Sempra Infrastructure, a subsidiary of Sempra (SRE) has started the operations on 108 MW Phase II of its Energía Sierra Juárez (ESJ) wind farm in Tecate, Baja California, Mexico.
ESJ, the first cross-border renewable energy project between Mexico and the United States, now provides 263 MW of zero-carbon electricity to the California electricity market. The US$150 million ESJ Phase II project has created more than 1,700 direct and indirect jobs.
The Phase II expansion of ESJ added 26 wind turbines, supplied by Vestas, with a total incremental capacity of 108 MW. The increased production is equivalent to the annual energy consumption of over 180,000 homes and is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by nearly 170,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) per year.
