Envision, a leading global smart energy solution provider, announced today a strategic partnership with Bow Power to evaluate, develop, and operate utility-scale wind farm projects in Latin America, starting with a 90-megawatt project in the Peninsula of Yucatan, Mexico. This collaboration brings together state of the art technology and services provided by Envision, with engineering, construction and asset management capabilities from Bow Power and affiliate companies. “The purpose of this alliance is to work together to pursue specific opportunities across global markets, in an effort to enhance our participation in the renewable energy sector. Envision is committed to bringing advanced technologies to support Mexico in its energy transformation. We are committed to creating a clean and sustainable future while lowering the levelized cost of energy,” Envision Group Executive Director Felix Zhang said.

Bow Power joint venture in Energia Renovable de la Peninsula, developed by Envision’s local partner ViveEnergia, was awarded with two power purchase agreements (PPAs) with Mexico`s utility company CFE in the 1st Renewable Energy Auction (energy and clean certificates) and a third contract in the 2nd Auction offering capacity. “This is one of two projects in the country that has been awarded with contracts in two auctions to supply all three products demanded by CFE.
