The old power plant has been replaced with a new one up and running 2 years+-.

The old power plant is still up and running. It is 100 MW. Till now two modules of 40 MW (new but not very efficient diesel engines imported from Spain) each have been built in the new power station behind the hills. Another 80 MW is supposed to be built within next 6 years. Since all the capacity is currently in use and there is not much left to run the State of BCS I doubt CFE will be able to shut off the old thermoelectric for at least next 10 years.
The old thermoelectric cannot be shut off till another 100 MW get built....... so even the new power plant will not be enough......... in meantime just pray it does not break down during the summer heat.........
And PEMEX deposit tanks will never be removed anyway since the power plants still need to be refueled by sea tanker

And the old Cemex tower which remains in Manglito (colonia inalmbrica)? Jesse could you put that on the tear down list too, please?

According to plans (still with no approved source of funds) the old power plant could be shut down in 2015.


Look at page 30

Hey man, if those rich guy Mexicans can shut down that power plant that's great!
The whole city will benefit!
They could build new one out in the desert. A clean modern type.
I'm sure when they originally built that power plant it was a long way out of town.
But you know La Paz burns alot of electricity! And So does Los Cabo and...
There is another filthy power plant over on Mag Bay. You can use the smoke plume as a navigation aid when you are fishing. You can see that smoke for 100 miles!
That's how murcury gets into the ocean. And the fish!

I stayed at Costa baja last year, we refer to it now as "The Musak Marina", they have that piped music going on all day and evening. That conflicts with the loud music from 3 restaurants, then there was a band also playing for a special event.
Never again.
