President Claudia Sheinbaum launched the González Ortega Combined Cycle Power Plant, operated by the CFE in Mexicali, Baja California. The plant will contribute 653 megawatts to the National Electric System as part of a six-year goal of 32 thousand new MW.

“This vision that energy production in Mexico has to have at least three characteristics: the first is to guarantee national sovereignty; the second is to reduce its environmental impacts, sustainability; and the third is social justice,” said the president.

Benefits for Baja California

Sheinbaum also announced the renovation of 4,000 electrical poles in the region to reduce service interruptions. The director of CFE, Emilia Calleja, explained that the plant will generate more than 5 thousand gigawatt-hours per year, with direct benefit for the months of greatest demand for heat.

Of the 32 thousand MW planned, 22 thousand will come from renewable sources. The CFE will increase its participation in generation from 54 to 60 percent, supported by constitutional changes that guarantee priority to its plants over private ones.

Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila highlighted an investment of more than 73,900 million pesos in transmission, distribution and generation, in addition to a subsidy of 1,485 million for electricity rates in Mexicali and San Felipe, which will benefit more than 1.37 million people.

Since 2018, power supply continuity has improved 30 percent. Sheinbaum recognized the CFE workers and the women who lead the country’s energy strategy.

A Control judge linked Tomás “N”, Diana “N” and Jaqueline “N” to the trial for their probable responsibility in organized crime crimes for the purposes of kidnapping and aggravated kidnapping. The victims were five citizens of India, kidnapped in June 2025 in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua.

As a precautionary measure, the three defendants were placed in informal preventive detention in State Prisons 2 and 3 of the entity. The judge granted four months for the complementary investigation.

Investigation and capture

The case began when the Consul of the Indian Embassy in Mexico reported via email that five compatriots were deprived of their liberty. Based on that notice, the Special Prosecutor’s Office for Organized Crime (FEMDO) began the investigations.

Days later, agents of the Federal Ministerial Police, experts from the Federal Forensic Expert Center and elements of the National Guard executed a search warrant in five homes in Ciudad Juárez. Before these operations, the victims had already been released. During the investigations, they located the three men identified, who had current arrest warrants; They were secured and placed at the disposal of the judge.

Regional context

The connection to the process of these individuals—presumably linked to the Northeast Cartel—evidences the challenge that organized crime represents in the border area. The authorities have indicated that this type of crime affects both Mexican citizens and foreigners, and they maintain operations to dismantle kidnapping networks.
