PNM Quick Saver Program for Small Business 

Reduce your electric bill and save money by making lighting or refrigeration retrofit upgrades. Start with a free energy assessment to learn where you can save, receive a written proposal, and then you decide how to move forward after reviewing the recommendations and rebate offers.  Participate in the PNM Quick Saver^TM Program to take advantage of these savings.

Retrofit Rebates

Improve your existing facility with prescriptive or custom energy-efficient improvements. PNM customers receive rebates for installing energy-efficient equipment such as lighting, heating,  ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), refrigeration, and food service equipment that help you reduce your energy bill and save you money in the long run.  Find out how the PNM Retrofit Rebates program may be just right for you. 

PNM Building Tune-Up

Optimize your facility's performance and offset the cost by improving the efficiency of your existing operations through the Retro-Commissioning program. If you manage an older facility, it may be time for a tune-up. We help you by paying for a portion of the building assessment and providing rebates for the savings you achieve. Also, certify your team through the Building Operator Certification program.

Refrigerator & Freezer Recycling Rebate

Recycle those old refrigerators or freezers at your business locations and get paid. PNM offers a Refrigerator Recycling Program for business customers who are managing offices, office complexes, multi-family residences, or other business operations where an old refrigerator or freezer is contributing to high energy use. We haul the old unit away for free and you can start saving energy and money.

Energy Management Programs

Strategic Energy Management Program

Most organizations address energy management by retrofitting inefficient equipment, making changes to how equipment is operated, or adjust operations or work processes to lower utility costs. For many, the approach is reactive - a series of independent projects and activities that may lack a good strategy for achieving a defined business purpose. Strategic Energy Management uses Continuous Improvement approaches like those found in LEAN or Six Sigma to identify and remove waste from your energy streams and Management System methods like those found in Environmental, Health, and Safety programs to help your organization plan, manage, and control energy performance on a sustained basis. Learn more about how your organization can benefit from a Strategic Energy Management program. 

PNM Energy Efficiency - the Bigger Picture

Helping customers save money by becoming more energy-wise is an important part of what we do every day. Since 2007, PNM Energy Efficiency programs have provided more than $121 million in customer rebates and helped save almost 5.9 billion kilowatt hours of electricity. That is enough to power approximately 703,000 homes for a year. These programs have kept an estimated 3.5 million metric tons of carbon dioxide out of the air and saved 1.8 billion gallons of water.

* The above figures for powering homes are based on estimated 2021 consumption values.
