Sempra Energy has announced that its Mexican subsidiary, Infraestructura Energética Nova, S.A.B. de C.V. (IEnova), has completed the acquisition of the Ventika I and Ventika II wind generation facilities in Mexico for approximately US$ 900 million, including the assumption of outstanding debt.
Located in the state of Nuevo León, Mexico, Ventika I and Ventika II consist of 84 operating wind turbines with an installed power generation capacity of 252MW. Ventika, jointly developed by CEMEX, Blackstone Energy Partners and Fisterra Energy, started commercial operations in April 2016. Ventika's power generation and capacity are contracted through long-term, US dollar-denominated agreements with high-credit-rating commercial and industrial customers. CEMEX will remain the manager of the project.
