                    Mexican state-owned utility Comision Federal de Electricidad (CFE), through its subsidiary CFEnergia, has called for submission of declarations of interest for the construction of six natural gas-fired, combined-cycle power plants. These include the 690-megawatt (MW) CCC Gonzalez Ortega; 697-MW CCC San Luis Rio Colorado (SLRC) and 164-MW CCC Baja California Sur in Baja California, Baja California Sur and Sonora, respectively; the 750-MW CCC Riviera Maya (Valladolid) and 532-MW CCC Merida in the Yucatan Peninsula; and the 1,108-MW CCC Tuxpan I in Veracruz.
The interested companies should present proposals for the design, development, financing, and construction of the plants, which are planned to be operational between 2023 and 2024. Once operational, the plants will be owned and operated by CFE through its generation subsidiaries.
These projects have been made priority items in CFE's recently released 2020-2025 Business Plan, together with the construction of a 500-MW peaking plant with aeroderivative mobile turbines to be built in CFE Transmision's Gonzalez Ortega Substation in the city of Mexicali. This project is currently in the purchasing phase, and the plant should be operational before next summer's demand peak.
