In 2016, the largest solar park of public access in Latin America was built. The Bicentennial Photovoltaic Park was built in Ciudad Victoria. These facilities include the Government Tower, the Polyforum, the State Congress, the Public Prosecutor's Office, the Civil Registry and the Fairgrounds.

The project consists of 45 thousand square meters, with a capacity of 2.6 MW and generates more than 50% of the energy consumed by the government of the state of Tamaulipas in its central offices.

The project has a covered roof area, made up of solar panels, for the use of more than 1,600 parking spaces.

The objective of the project is to maximize the main benefits of generating energy with the solar system.

The state surface is part of the provinces of Sierra Madre Oriental, Great Plains of North America and Northern Gulf Coastal Plain. Due to the action of the marine currents at the edge of the sea, a series of beaches have been formed that have separated and formed bodies of water such as the Laguna Madre.

In the west and on the international border there is an extension of hills, interrupted in the central part by the Chiquita mountain range.

There are mountain ranges in the Southwest, predominantly formed by sedimentary rocks (formed on beaches, rivers and oceans and where sand and mud accumulates), some intrusive igneous rocks (formed below the Earth's surface) and metamorphic rocks (which have undergone changes due to pressure and high temperatures). In these elevations, the highest is represented by the Peña Nevada hill with 3 510 meters above sea level.

Tamaulipas presently has three Integral Port Administrations (API's), Tampico and Altamira in the South (Federal), and Tamaulipas in the North, Port of Matamoros (State).

The Port offers in its Public Terminals, eleven docking positions with 2,149 linear meters and an area of roofed spaces for storage of more than 60,000 m².
