Mexico's sustainable economy is moving more and more towards renewable wind energy. Wind energy has proven to be one of the most important supplies of energy in the world's ever-changing global environment.
Mexico has recently reached a capacity of 1,000 megawatts of installed wind generated energy. This figure is up from 519 megawatts in 2011, indicating substantial, rapid growth of Mexico's renewable energy sector.
On the topic of this movement towards the establishment of a more sustainable reliance on renewable resources, the president of the Mexican Wind Energy Association, Leopoldo Rodriguez stated in an interview,
"And we can say with complete certainty that by 2012 at least 2,500 MW will be installed at projects already under construction or in very advanced stages." He went on to say, "of course is that it's a source that doesn't emit contaminants; from the perspective of the country's goal of mitigating greenhouse gases to combat climate change, it's an ideal source. "
Wind energy growth and knowledge in Mexico is extremely important for not only Mexico but the environmental state of the world. Most of the wind generated energy comes from established wind turbines in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec region in southeastern Mexico. Turbines have also been built in the northwestern part of Baja California.
