Environmental sustainability

PNM Resources is committed to protecting, preserving and wisely using natural resources as we provide safe and reliable energy. It is the responsibility of today's generation to preserve and protect clean air, water and open space for future generations to use and enjoy. As a natural resources-based company, we will do our part in meeting this ethical responsibility by being an exemplary steward of the environment.

PNM Resources will practice sustainable business development whereby a business can grow and thrive while at the same time protecting, preserving and wisely using natural resources. We will balance the economic, environmental and social impacts of all our actions, now and in the future. We will integrate sustainability considerations into business decisions and performance measurements.

PNM Resources will view products and services from a full life-cycle perspective in terms of their impact on the environment. We will use natural resources and energy efficiently to reduce or eliminate waste. And we will minimize and responsibly manage the environmental impacts and risks of operations. We will make environmental protection and stewardship integral to facility design, construction, operation and maintenance, as well as business planning and employee and management training. We will set challenging goals and establish performance measures and we will encourage our business colleagues upstream and downstream of our direct operations to conduct their affairs in a similar fashion.
