Two wind farms of 252 MW in total Nuevo León, Mexico See on Google Maps
Largest contract for a turnkey project carried out by ACCIONA worldwide. The project, which was completed at the end of 2015 and went into full commercial operation in April 2016, has a total capacity of 252 MW.

The wind complex made up by Ventika and Ventika II wind farms represents the biggest turn-key contract (EPC) carried out by ACCIONA globally. This milestone in the company's track-record reaches 252 MW capacity thanks to eighty-four AW116/3000 wind turbines with Nordex/ACCIONA Windpower's technology. Each turbine, with 3 MW rated capacity, features a 116m-long rotor diameter on a 120m-high concrete tower. The project, which was installed by late 2015 and entered full commercial operation in April 2016, was built for a consortium formed by Fisterra Energy, CEMEX and some private inverstors. It is currently owned by IEnova (Sempra Energy). It was inaugurated by Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto on September 12, 2016.
