Invest in New Mexico's Energy Future
The Energy Conservation and Management Division develops and implements effective clean energy programs
– renewable energy, energy efficiency and conservation, clean fuels and efficient transportation –
to promote environmental and economic sustainability for New Mexico and its citizens.
By statute (Sections 9-5A-1 through 7, NMSA 1978), the New Mexico Energy Conservation and Management Division (ECMD) is responsible for planning and administering energy efficiency and renewable energy technology programs. Included are programs related to the development and use of solar, wind, geothermal, and biomass resources as well as alternative fuels and transportation. In addition, this division provides technical assistance and information in these areas to government agencies, Indian tribes and pueblos, educational institutions, and the general public. ECMD receives U.S. Department of Energy funding support through its State Energy Program (SEP) to accomplish our division's clean energy goals.
ECMD partners with citizens, businesses, industry, schools, universities, and research laboratories to invest in clean energy infrastructure and to conduct clean energy programs. Our staff develops and implements effective clean energy programs – renewable energy, energy efficiency and conservation, efficient transportation and clean fuels – that reduce energy use and utility expenditures by increasing and diversifying energy supplies to promote environmental and economic sustainability for New Mexico and its citizens.
As the importance of energy efficiency, energy conservation, and renewable energy grows each year on a global scale, the State of New Mexico and ECMD are becoming major stakeholders in the development and implementation of effective programs that strive to lessen dependence on fossil fuels and foreign oil.
On behalf of our division, I welcome you to our website and encourage your suggestions as to how this site can serve your needs better.
