How New Mexico is Driving Clean Energy Savings and Equity |
|
New Mexico’s community solar program is accelerating clean energy growth and equity to help reach the state's goal of 50% renewable energy by 2030. Our latest blog explores this expanding initiative — including its 30% low-income carve-out — and how Standard Solar is leading the charge. With more than 65 MW of projects in New Mexico, highlighted by our new 48.4 MW portfolio, we are proud to strengthen the region’s clean-energy supply. |

The New Scorecard: Performance Plus Delivery Certainty |
|
In the latest issue of RE:NEW, Seth Adams, Senior VP of Construction, explains why procurement certainty and safe-harbor inventory have evolved from tax strategies into critical infrastructure requirements that keep projects on track. The ultimate metric for project success is no longer just megawatts installed — it’s schedule confidence and time-to-service. |
