The model, driven by the Zapotec commune and Grupo Yansa, avoided land leasing and earmarked part of the profits for a community trust. It was never built: in October 2012 the CFE closed the door on the project and awarded the last transmission capacity (~102 MW) to Enel Green Power; the commune filed an amparo lawsuit against the CFE.● Discontinued· scale subnational
