track record
Pioneering Wind Energy Projects and PPAs: Gauss's initiative to pioneer wind energy projects in Mexico is a groundbreaking achievement. By developing and marketing wind energy, Gauss is contributing significantly to the renewable energy landscape. The engagement of major prime off-takers such as Bimbo, Walmart, Chedraui, and Volkswagen through private-to-private Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) structures demonstrates Gauss's leadership in fostering sustainable energy solutions while catering to the needs of prominent companies.
Aura I - First Large-Scale Photovoltaic Facility in Mexico: The launch of Aura I marks a significant milestone for Gauss and the entire renewable energy sector in Mexico. Being the first large-scale PV plant in the country, it signifies a major step forward in harnessing solar energy. This accomplishment not only showcases Gauss's commitment to innovation but also positions Mexico as a player in the global renewable energy arena.
Aura II - Largest Solar Park in Mexico and Central America: The successful launch of Aura II represents Gauss's dedication to expanding its solar energy footprint beyond Mexico's borders. Aura II is a testament to Gauss's capacity to execute ambitious projects and contribute to the clean energy transition in the region.
Aura III - First Large-Scale solar+storage facility in Mexico: The commissioning of Aura III solidifies Gauss's position as a leader in renewable energy solutions on a regional scale. By introducing the first photovoltaic plant with a large-scale storage solution in Mexico, Gauss is at the forefront of pushing technological boundaries. This milestone underscores the commercial viability of utility-scale solar+storage solutions in the region.
We specialize in commercial and financial structuring for projects that ensure their bankability through power purchase agreements (PPAs) or direct sales to the wholesale electricity market
The Aura Solar Initiative is geared towards the development, management, and operation of profitable large-scale solar generation projects. It seizes the allure and competitive edges of photovoltaic and energy storage technologies.
Our vision encompasses the integration of investment opportunities within a diversified portfolio of expansive projects. This initiative took its inaugural stride with the Aura Solar I project, marking a pivotal moment in the evolution of the Mexican solar sector.
The Aura Solar Initiative propels the portfolio of renewable energies in the country with the objective of contributing to the goal to add up to 35% of the installed generation capacity in the country.
