The first cross-border wind farm has been opened, between the Mexico and US , in a collaborative bid to reduce carbon emissions. The wind farm project will save more than 125,809 metric tons of carbon dioxide a year and 189 metric tons of nitrogen oxides a year from entering the atmosphere and provide power to more than 70,000 households. The project consists of a 4.8 mile trans-boundary, transmission line made up of 47 wind turbines, each with a nominal capacity of 151.1MW , which will provide a total capacity of 3.3MW of electricity.
