CFE plans $12.5 billion renewable energy expansion across several Mexican states
What happened
Mexico’s state power company CFE announced new infrastructure projects across Campeche, Coahuila, Baja California, and Nuevo León. CFE is expected to vote on a solar and wind plan covering more than 60 projects, valued at approximately US$12.5 billion, on October 20. The proposed plants, mostly wind farms and solar parks, would add about 8.2 gigawatts of capacity.

Why it matters
The expansion is relevant because factories that serve American customers depend on a grid that has suffered seasonal blackouts. The new capacity aims to increase energy stability and reduce operational risk for manufacturing in the affected states.
