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.

The United States seems set on propelling itself backwards.
Maybe, as they say, “Hell has a special place reserved in it” for people like Thom Tillis, Republican Senator from North Carolina, who enabled Trump to rape and destroy the United States.
That was until it became clear to Tillis that he could jump ship, write a scathing book about the president, get all over mainstream news promoting it, and go on to enjoy another chapter of political success.
That we Americans are so stupid that we accept this blatant hypocrisy and criminality is sad proof that we’re not the people we were 20 years ago. Maybe what many people are saying are correct: we deserved what we got.
Here’s a short video from Elle Cordova that reminds us that science is something of a rarity in human history.
The great tyrants of history have done their best to cause the people they ruled to reject science, simply to ensure the masses are ignorant, terrified, superstitious, and thus easily controlled.
The current political administration is particularly engrossed in the rejection of science. I wonder why.
