Back in 2018, Mayor Tim Keller announced a plan that would move the city of Albuquerque toward what he called 100% renewable, clean energy within four years. Under the agreement with PNM, the city will purchase 25 MW of the electricity that would be generated by the proposed 50MW solar plant.[/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”18063″ animation=”none”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row kswr_row_top_decor_enabled=”false” kswr_row_bottom_decor_enabled=”false”][vc_column]
