Renewable Energy - Wind: New Mexico Wind Energy Working Group

The New Mexico Wind Working Group is a collaborative group of individuals, professionals, and wind industry participants who have assembled to promote the development of wind energy in the state. The purpose of the group is to discuss, develop, and implement the tasks and methodologies that will hasten the development of wind energy in New Mexico. The group's objective is to promote environmental protection and boost economic development within the state through the use of wind energy and to foster the increased use of wind-generated electricity by the energy generators and consumers of New Mexico. Activities of the New Mexico Wind Working Group are funded by the US Department of Energy and coordinated by the New Mexico Energy Conservation and Management Division.

Topics:
* Impact of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act on New Mexico wind energy development
