Natural gas is fueling nearshoring in Nuevo León.

Nuevo León, Mexico's third-most populous state and a key hub for manufacturing, is experiencing a nearshoring boom. To meet the growing demand for natural gas, Naturgy, a Spanish energy company, has invested $7 million in a new terminal at the Monterrey Interport. The terminal will add 30% more supply capacity to the region.

The new infrastructure is part of a pipeline built by the Howard Energy-Clisa consortium, which connects Webb County, Texas, with the Monterrey metropolitan area. The pipeline is 30 kilometers long in the United States and 290 kilometers long in Mexico.
