This project involved the transfer of a generator, a high-pressure turbine and a low-pressure turbine, the trio of pieces arrived at one of the country's 5 major trading ports, the port of Altamira, located at the state of Tamaulipas in northeast of the federation, sharing its borders with the Gulf of Mexico to the east, the industrial state of Nuevo Leon to the west and the United States to the north.
These equipment will be part of the combined cycle power plant located in "El Sauz", within the state of Querétaro.
