    PNM customers have benefited from the affordability and dependability of coal generation for many decades, primarily from the San Juan Generating Station near Farmington, New Mexico. 

    In 2017, our integrated resource plan (IRP) showed that removing coal from our energy mix would provide a long-term cost benefit to customers. PNM proposed drastically reducing coal power generation by retiring the San Juan Generating Station by the end of 2022 and completely removing coal from our generation mix by exiting the Four Corners Power Plan when our purchasing contracts with that facility end in 2031.

    The San Juan Generating Station, located near Farmington, NM.

    PNM is a partial owner of the Four Corners Power Plant, located south of the Farmington area on Navajo Nation tribal land. Four Corners Power Plant is operated by Arizona Public Service Company.
