Environmental Stewardship
PNM takes seriously its responsibility to be a
good steward of our environment and to achieve superior levels
of environmental performance.
Among PNM's efforts:
- reducing air emissions at power plants
- reducing water use at power plants
- managing all gas- and coal-fired power plants under ISO
14001-certified Environmental Management Systems
- operating all electric services under
an EMS that is consistent with the ISO 14001 standard.
- wildlife protection
- development of an environmental sustainability policy
PNM also supports educating our youth about the importance
of our environment, including through our sponsorship of
the PNM Butterfly Pavilion at the Albuquerque BioPark.
PNM is proud of its role in the creation of the New Mexico
Wind Energy Center, which can produce enough power to supply
94,000 average-sized New Mexico homes — without emissions
or water use.
