PNM is open to allowing its customers to interconnect customer-owned generation systems to the PNM electric distribution system. There are currently more than 400 customer-owned generation systems of various sizes interconnected with PNM's distribution system. Having customer-controlled distributed generation operating throughout PNM's system is a new consideration in how PNM operates its distribution system. As a result, PNM has developed an interconnection procedure and some minimal interconnection and safety standards to ensure that PNM's distribution system and the customer-owned generation are compatible and safe for both the generation owner and PNM employees. The procedure is easy. In fact, working with PNM up front can minimize the cost of interconnection. Interconnection rules and The N.M. Interconnection Manual
The interconnection process varies slightly depending on the type and size of the generating system being installed. The differences are due in part to the rules and definitions set forth by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission rule that governs cogeneration and small power production.
Read the following descriptions and select the option that best describes the facility to be interconnected to the PNM power grid.
