Mexico’s wind energy industry is entering a new phase of expansion, supported by rising electricity demand, national renewable-energy targets, grid investment, and a growing pipeline of clean-energy projects.
Wind generation reached **10,020 GWh during the first five months of 2026**, up 3.8% from the same period in 2025 and 87% higher than in 2018, highlighting the sector’s growing contribution to Mexico’s electricity system.
### Key Growth Drivers
???? Expansion of utility-scale wind projects
???? Increasing demand for clean and reliable electricity
???? Government-backed renewable-capacity additions
???? Grid modernization and transmission investment
???? Growing opportunities for hybrid wind-plus-storage projects
???? Rising interest in industrial and corporate clean-energy procurement
???? Development of domestic renewable-energy supply chains
### Strong Project Pipeline
Mexico’s 2025–2030 power-expansion strategy includes substantial renewable investment. The government has announced **2,850 MW of new wind capacity** alongside 5,393 MW of solar PV capacity as part of CFE’s planned additions.
In addition, five private renewable projects selected for development include **849 MW of wind capacity**, with projects spread across multiple Mexican states and paired with significant energy-storage capacity.
### Market Outlook to 2033
Mexico’s broader renewable-energy market is forecast to expand strongly through 2033, with wind remaining an important segment alongside solar, hydropower, and bioenergy.
Growth opportunities are emerging across **wind turbine manufacturing, project development, EPC services, grid infrastructure, energy storage, digital monitoring, operations & maintenance, and hybrid renewable systems**.
The Mexican government’s current renewable-energy expansion plan targets **32 GW of additional power capacity by 2030**, including 22 GW from renewable sources, reinforcing the long-term investment environment for clean-energy technologies.
