The Viento Fronterizo project is a proposed 1001 MW wind generation project located in the Municipality Of Tecate, Mexico, within the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) region. The project, which consists of 1001 MW of wind capacity, is interconnected with San Diego Gas & Electric (SDGE) at the East County Substation 500 kV.
The project entered the CAISO interconnection queue as queue ID CAISO-1824 on April 15, 2020. Its proposed commercial operation date is May 10, 2033. The project's interconnection status is currently in the System Impact Study phase.
