Mexico City, December 8, 2023.- Given the growing energy demand that the country faces, and the national drive for greener energy, the renewable power sector in Mexico remains promising. Poised to support the energy transition in Mexico, the SPIC group, the global leading clean energy investor and IPP, and the ultimate parent company of Zuma Energía in Mexico, announced the majority acquisition of three solar parks from InfraRed and INVEX in Chihuahua. The remaining minority shareholdings are owned by AINDA, a renown and reputable private equity fund in Mexico.
The acquisition added 216 MW to its installed capacity in the country, rendering Zuma Energia the second-largest private renewable generation company in Mexico.
Currently, Zuma Energía has operations in Sonora, Chihuahua, and Jalisco with solar parks, and in Tamaulipas and Oaxaca with wind farms. In addition, opportunities are already being sought in Puebla, Querétaro, Yucatán, and Monterrey with clean energy projects and investments in new lines of business such as storage, electric vehicle solutions, solar panels, Smart Cities, and Smart Energy.
The integration of the Jaguar Solar project portfolio reinforces trust and commitment to the country to achieve the energy transition by expanding its investments in renewable generation for the betterment of society and the economy.
