Finsolar’s 500M Peso Solar Boost for Quintana Roo

Cancún, Mexico — The company Finsolar has announced a 500 million peso investment in solar energy projects in the state of Quintana Roo. This investment is equivalent to approximately 50 solar farms or sufficient energy to supply about 40,000 homes per year.

The resources will be allocated to promote solar power generation projects, integrating different modalities and business models to guarantee flexibility and efficiency. The plan contemplates an initial capacity of approximately 30 MW, which is in a process of expansion as new roofs and land plots are incorporated.

The first projects are expected to begin by the end of 2025, although some will be underway before the year concludes, consolidating sustained growth throughout 2026 with the objective of maximizing economic and environmental benefits for the region.

Leveraging Existing Infrastructure for Energy Production

Hernán Varela Posada, Commercial Director of Finsolar in Mexico, explained that, in addition to its abundant solar radiation, Quintana Roo also stands out for its infrastructure and potential in the tourism, commercial, and industrial sectors. The region has numerous spaces without productive use on roofs and land linked to its bustling economic activity, which, through Finsolar's model, can be rented and monetized.

"These conditions make Quintana Roo a state of opportunity to leverage existing infrastructure to generate resources, promote sustainability, and attract investment," he stated.

Finsolar will focus its efforts on transforming select industrial, commercial, and tourism roofs, in addition to strategic land plots, into productive assets through rental contracts. The benefits for the owners of these spaces include passive income without additional investment.

Economic and Environmental Benefits

The executive assured that these projects represent a significant opportunity for the state in terms of diversification and increased income for owners of roofs and land, converting unused spaces into productive assets.

Furthermore, they contribute significantly to the reduction of thousands of tons of annual CO2 emissions, supporting efforts to combat climate change. Similarly, the projects are expected to drive the creation of direct and indirect jobs during their construction and operation stages, generating a positive impact on the region's sustainable economic growth.
