Xcel Energy is required to file an Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) with the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission every three years. The IRP covers a 20-year planning period. Xcel Energy will file its next IRP in October 2026
In November 2022, the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission (NMPRC) put procedures in place for the state’s investor-owned electric utilities to follow to engage stakeholders in developing their 20-year Integrated Resource Plans (IRP). The NMPRC appointed Gridworks (external link) as the independent facilitator to lead a 2026 stakeholder process intended to advise the utility and reach a potential agreement on two key elements of the IRP – the statement of need and action plan.

View our previous Integrated Resource Plans: 2024-2043 and 2022-2041.
