Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to reduce energy costs and combat climate change. Solarize Santa Fe installers and team members will connect you with utility programs to reduce your electricity and heating while increasing the comfort and safety of your house. Below are some of the services provided by the electric utility (PNM) and gas utility (NM Gas Company) serving Santa Fe residents.
NM Gas Energy Efficiency services
Most Santa Fe homes use natural gas for home heating, cooking, and heating their hot water used in faucets, showers, and clothes and dishwashers. There are a number of measures that can be done in most houses to reduce your heating, saving you money and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
NM Gas provides energy efficiency services and rebates to NM Gas customers. These include low-flow attachments for faucets and shower-heads, insulation of water heaters, ceiling and attic insulation, and rebates for new furnaces, water heaters, and smart thermostats.
- All customers can visit NM Gas’s energy efficiency page to learn about residential rebates, as well as download this one-page flyer.
- Income-qualified customers participating in Solarize Santa Fe’s rooftop solar program will qualify for a series of energy-saving weatherization measures that can be found here.
