New Mexico invests in community solar

State regulators have approved the initial 200 megawatts of solar-generated power for the community, marking the start of 45 projects that have the potential to serve people throughout New Mexico.

This initial allocation represents the beginning of numerous statewide projects that could eventually provide opportunities to local consumers in Albuquerque and other New Mexico cities. These projects would enable those who are unable to install solar systems on their own to take advantage of clean energy sources by being connected to community installations. This participation has the potential to reduce their electric bills while promoting clean energy initiatives and reducing their carbon footprints.

The Public Regulation Commission revealed the initial set of projects granted to specific energy developers. This marked the conclusion of a selection process that lasted six months. The process commenced in November when the commission-selected InClime Inc., a company based in Maryland, issued a request for proposals (RFP) to gauge how interested companies were in constructing and running installations. Official documents like these sometimes feature the Logo Design of the company issuing them.

The RFP resulted in over 408 potential power-generating projects in various locations around New Mexico, totaling over 1,700 MW of power generated from solar. This amount is about nine times greater than the permitted capacity in the initial stage of the program's development. The total combined community solar output will be capped at 200 MW.
