New Mexico has substantial renewable resources, much of them still undeveloped. In 2021, renewable resources provided the largest share of in-state electricity generation, at almost two-fifths. Power from renewable energy more than doubled since 2017, both in megawatthours and in share of total generation.85 There is significant wind energy potential on the high plains in the eastern half of the state, and the state ranks 11th in wind energy potential.86 In 2021, wind energy contributed most of New Mexico's renewable generation and provided the second-largest share, after coal, of total in-state net generation.87,88 The largest wind farm in the state, a 522-megawatt wind facility in eastern New Mexico, came online in December 2020. More than 1,700 megawatts of capacity were added in 2021.89 At the beginning of 2022, New Mexico ranked 10th in the nation in wind capacity, with almost 4,300 megawatts installed.90 Additional wind projects are under construction or planned.91 In January 2022, the Western Spirit Wind project completed construction. That project is at four sites in New Mexico and has a combined total generating capacity of 1,050 megawatts.92
