The Comision Federal de Electricidad, Mexico's national power company, expects to receive 15 bids by May 30 from companies looking to develop La Laguna II, a 450 MW combined-cycle gas-fired plant, and 19 offers for the CCGT Tuxpan V (479 MW) project by June 20. An official at the CFE says Spanish utilities Iberdrola and Union Fenosa, Electricité de France, Enel, AES and Canadian IPP TransAlta are among the large group of developers that will bid for both projects. Officials at the companies either declined to comment or did not return calls.
