TEGUCIGALPA, February 16, 2023 – Total Eren has signed an agreement to develop a 112-MW wind project in Honduras, the French renewable energy independent announced on Wednesday.

The company signed a 25-year power purchase agreement with Honduran national electricity company Empresa Nacional de Energía Eléctrica and San Marcos Wind Energy, the entity in charge of the development.

The development will be located in both the Choluteca and Francisco Morazán departments and involve 95 kilometres of 230-kV transmission lines, a new 230-kV substation and reinforcement works at two existing substations.
