PNM Sky Blue^®:
Renewable Energy for New Mexico

Support Renewable Energy in New Mexico

Did you know that PNM Sky Blue® is New Mexico's own home-grown source of 100% locally-generated, clean energy? PNM Sky Blue® uses 22,000 solar panels from our facility in Los Lunas plus wind purchased from the New Mexico Wind Energy Center near Fort Sumner to give our customers an easy, affordable way to show their support for clean energy. You have the opportunity to support renewable energy in New Mexico by volunteering to participate in the PNM Sky Blue® program.

How the Program Works

Joining PNM Sky Blue® makes it easy and affordable to support clean, renewable wind and solar energy without making the commitment of putting solar panels on your roof or wind turbines in your backyard. The program is completely voluntary, and it has no contract or long-term commitment. Participants in the program will receive a small renewable energy credit on their monthly bills for every kilowatt hour (kWh) they subscribe to as part of PNM  Sky Blue®. This means that for every $1.70 you spend on PNM Sky Blue®, you will receive a credit back of about $0.70 cents, or put another way, $.007 per kWh. This is money back in your pocket for supporting renewable energy in New Mexico.

Program Subscription Options

There are two different options for you to choose from depending on how you want to participate in the PNM Sky Blue® program. 

Option 1: Block Subscription - Fixed Monthly Cost

This block option is ideal for someone who wants to add more renewable energy to the power grid but wants a fixed cost each month.

• Purchase 100 kWh "blocks" of electricity. Each PNM Sky Blue® 100 kWh block is priced at $1.70 per month above your normal electricity cost. For each 100 kWh block purchased, you will receive a credit on your monthly bill equal to 100 x the renewable energy cost.
• The maximum number of blocks you can purchase will be based on your average usage.
• Example: A customer signing up for two 100 kWh blocks would pay an additional $3.40 per month and receive a renewable energy credit equal to $1.40.

Option 2: Percentage Subscription - Variable Monthly Cost

This percentage option is ideal for someone who wants to add more renewable energy to the power grid based on how much energy they use every month and doesn't mind the cost changing from month to month.

• Purchase any percentage of your monthly electric usage. Each PNM Sky Blue® kWh is priced at $0.017 per month above your normal electricity cost. For each PNM Sky Blue® kWh purchased, you will receive a credit on your monthly bill equal to the renewable energy cost.
• Because your electricity usage varies each month, your PNM Sky Blue® cost will vary monthly with your electric use.
• Example: A customer using 600 kWh of electricity subscribing to 20% of their monthly usage would pay $2.04 per month (20% of 600 kWh = 120 kWh, multiplied by $0.017 = $2.04) and receive a renewable energy credit equal to $0.84 (120 kWh x $0.007).
