Title

Quarterly Update on Utility System:  Electric Production - Hydroelectric Facilities

 

Body

This quarterly update will provide a high level overview of the Electric Production operation and power generation assets.  The Department of Public Utilities operates and manages the electric production assets to serve its customers with affordable, reliable and safe electric service.  This is accomplished through multiple contracts, a mix of power generation resources along with the transmission and the distribution system network to serve our customers.

 

The assets include the San Juan Generating Station near Farmington New Mexico operated by the Public Service Company of New Mexico and the Laramie River Station located in Wheatland Wyoming operated by Basin Electric Power Cooperative.  The County owned and operated renewable assets include the Solar PV array and hydroelectric facilities at the Abiquiu and El Vado reservoirs located in Northern New Mexico.
