Industries secured a long-term agreement with CFEnergía in February 2026 to enable construction of an ultra-low-carbon methanol facility in Sinaloa. The MXN61.7bn ($3.3bn) project is set to begin in Q2 2026 and complete in early 2030, producing 1.8 million metric tonnes of blue methanol and 350,000 metric tonnes of green methanol annually.
Project analytics The industrial construction project pipeline in Mexico, tracked by GlobalData and covering projects above $25m from pre-planning through execution, totals $66.9bn and is heavily concentrated in early-stage developments, with 61.3% of value in pre-planning and planning as of March 2026. The largest project is the $10bn Ixtepec Green Hydrogen Plant, currently in the planning stage, alongside the $6.5bn Pyrolysis Plant Development in Ciudad Victoria, Tamaulipas, which remains in pre-planning and will include facilities to convert plastic waste into fuel, along with associated infrastructure such as cooling systems, oil storage tanks, gas-solid separators and gas scrubbing systems.
