PROJECTS
ELECTRICA DEL VALLE DE MEXICO:
67.5MW under the self-supply provision of Mexico's Electric Power Service Law, in conjunction with Energies Nouvelles (Electricité de France) and Mitsui in Oaxaca to supply power to over 300 Grupo Walmart de Mexico stores. Under development since 2000. Clipper Liberty Wind Turbines ordered in July, 2008. Construction completed in February, 2010. Commissioned Spring, 2010. $21M IDB funding announced December 2009. http://www.iadb.org/projects/project.cfm?id=ME-L1076&lang=en SEE PHOTO OF INSTALLATION BELOW: In July 2009 the European Investment Bank (EIB) announced $75MUSD in debt financing offer. http://www.eib.org/projects/pipeline/2009/20090038.htm?lang=-en. In March, 2010, the project won the EXIM Bank Project of the Year Award in Washington, D.C.
APA was a founding partner of this project, and has remained a minority partner through plant inauguration.
APAIT FLECHA (Arrowhead) Projects: Located in the Indigenous Pai I'Pai Community of Mission Santa Catarina, about 70 miles south of San Diego in Baja CA. Estimated developable 326MW of Class 7.0 - 9.0 M/S wind power projects will serve as the anchor for a 1000MW wind and possibly solar project for power supply to CA (See below) Up to 40 MW to be dedicated to local "self supply" projects to industry and commerce in Baja CA, which has a total demand of 2000MW - a small fraction of the 60,000MW (10,000 developable) of strong wind power within 100 miles of the CA border.
The Pai Pai have been living in harmony with nature on their land for over 3,500 years. Together we are forging new ways to sustain our ever-shrinking global village through 100% green energy development. Local "self-supply" power projects in conjunction with APA's energy saving solutions for Municipal and Large Commercial users in Baja CA and export projects to California. "Shooting straight for energy developing social equity and a clean environment." Unique community development model, with assistance from US tribes and Mexican Native NGO's. Over 100 square miles of desert land available for solar development - with a substantial aquifer within relatively easy pumping range.
EXPORT TO CALIFORNIA PROJECT: (4) 250MW Projects to supply wind and potentially solar power from The 263 square mile Indigenous Pai I'Pai Community of Mission Santa Catarina, 80 miles from San Diego and from various ejidos and private properties near the Baja CA / CA border, to the California, USA grid. APA is applying for a 2010 "Post Reform" 1000MW CAISO Queue Position to deliver clean energy to California Utilities starting in 2013 and continuing up to 2016.
