Mexico's President Felipe Calderon opened the first biodiesel plant in Mexico, located in Tapachula, Chiapas.

Fuel generator had an investment of $21 million pesos from state government and $15 million pesos from Federal.

Its initial production capacity is of 20,000 liters per day and may expand up to 10 times.

Energy obtained in this plant will feed the entire public transport system of Tapachula and a portion of Tuxtla Gutierrez.

The plant will transform non-food agricultural products such as jatropha curcas oil, palm oil and recycled oil into clean fuel, federal government reported via a press release.

From now on 'Chiapas will be the main entity producing biofuels' said President Calderon.
