KCEC has partnered with Guzman Energy since 2016. KCEC’s goals were to:

  • Stabilize their wholesale cost of power; KCEC’s wholesale rates had been raised at least 10 times over the 12-year period preceding its exit from its legacy G&T supplier.
  • Restore local decision-making and control over power choices like local generation and renewables.
  • Contribute to New Mexico’s statewide objective to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 45% by the year 2030.
  • Achieve over 70% renewable energy powered by 2028, and ultimately 100% renewable energy powered.
