550 million, including capitalized interest at the project level and project contingency. The actual amount of these capital expenditures may differ substantially from our estimates. We expect the Cimarrón Wind project to begin generating energy in late 2025 and commence commercial operations in the first half of 2026.

Hackberry Carbon Sequestration Project. Sempra Infrastructure is developing the potential Hackberry Carbon Sequestration project near Hackberry, Louisiana, together with TotalEnergies SE, Mitsui & Co., Ltd. and Mitsubishi Corporation. This proposed project is designed to permanently sequester carbon dioxide from the Cameron LNG Phase 1 facility, the proposed Cameron LNG Phase 2 project and potentially other sources. In April 2025, the Louisiana Department of Energy and Natural Resources (LDENR) issued a draft Class VI carbon injection well construction permit. We expect the LDENR to issue the final permit later in 2025, once the required public hearings and feedback process are complete.

In 2024, the Mexican government adopted changes to the Mexican Constitution to reinforce state control over strategic sectors by granting a central role to government entities like the CFE and PEMEX, which have been converted from for-profit state-owned enterprises into federal administrative agencies under SENER. Following these constitutional reforms, in March 2025, the Mexican government adopted energy-related laws (2025 Energy Laws), including the ESL, which repealed the LIE, and the HSL, which repealed the LH. The 2025 Energy Laws increase the government’s control
