PNM has filed an application with the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission (NMPRC) for new energy resources to be added by summer 2028.

The proposed resource portfolio extends existing resources and adds 430 MW of new solar and battery storage to meet PNM’s forecasted peak load requirements in 2028.

The filing requests approval for:

  • extension of a Valencia PPA for 167 MW through 2039, as the current agreement expires in 2028
  • addition of 300 MW capacity through Energy Storage Agreements for two 150 MW battery stand-alone storage facilities
  • addition of a 100 MW solar and 30 MW battery storage facility, with an option for an additional 20 MW of battery storage, to be owned and operated by PNM

The proposed placement of the 130 MW facility is in New Mexico’s Central Consolidated School District, where the San Juan Generating Station was retired in 2022.

The filing is subject to approval by the NMPRC and PNM has requested approval of the resources within nine months.

PNM is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TXNM Energy.

Some people may be, but, to a person, the foreigners I’ve met are deeply saddened, and terrified of the consequences of the Trump regime.

Their feeling is simply that America re-elected a convicted felon, rapist, and traitor who attempted to overthrow the U.S. federal government.  If we’re willing to do that, we’re capable of anything, regardless of how depraved.

Trump’s Supporters Eat Up His Lies

I’ve never understood why those who compose total bullshit like this don’t go for the gusto.  Why 95% and not 99% or 100%?

Trump’s actual approval rating among Republicans is somewhere between 75% and 80%, as can be easily verified by anyone on Earth with a cell phone or computer. That number continues to dwindle, as he faces more pressure regarding the war, gas prices, child rape, etc.

Obviously, the president’s supporters are suckers for his lies, but isn’t this a bit over the top?

The Future of Energy

I get a call every week or so from someone working for a start-up in oil exploration, hoping that I’ll invest.  I guess my name and cell number got collected somehow from various online searches I’ve made.

I’m always quick to explain, “Oh, sorry, I don’t support wrecking the planet, even if I can profit from it.  Neither should you. Bye now.”
