"From Fossil Fuels to Solar Power: New Mexico's Clean Energy Revolution": "So we have the potential to shift from being an energy leader in the oil and gas in the fossil world to continuing to be an energy leader in the clean revolution."

Revamping America's Energy Backbone: "Most of the grids in The United States are old and brittle and unfortunately sagging and may be causing wildfires."

"Green Jobs Revolution": "So there's jobs at foot, green jobs happening right now."

Innovative Energy Solutions: "One, for example, is what's called thermal storage where you just take a a giant, like, silo, like a farm silo, fill it full of sand, point solar panels at it, and just simply heat them up and let the sand get really, really hot, like boiling water kind of hot."

"Clean Energy Innovations": "If you put that together, you can create or you can use batteries, especially batteries, for example, in your car, like your electric car is basically giant battery on wheels. And if it can either absorb excess electricity at certain times or discharge back into the grid at times when the grid needs it, you have you're solving a lot of problems for the grid."

Bridge to Bankability: "The state of New Mexico, through a program called a SEFI program, a state energy financing institution, through the SEFI program, the state will partner with the feds, with you on your fabulous program, whatever it is, and we will put in money to help you get a very cheap below market loan from the LPL for a hundred million and up depending on what your project is."

"Unlocking Green Energy Potential": "So and what's a green energy project? If you are a Navajo chapter house and you're putting in solar plus storage, if you are a police department and you're buying electric vehicles, if you are a union hall and you're installing a ground source heat pump or something like that, you can be eligible for these tax credits."

"Adopting Geothermal: A Collaborative Future": "Yeah. I mean, well, for example, there's eight different geothermal companies that we're in some version of talks with, or each taking advantage of one of the different menu choices that I just offered depending on their own financing and their own situation. One of them, for example, is partnering with a Pueblo or in talks to partner with a Pueblo. And so we're looking at that opens the door to us bringing in grant money that they're gonna combine with the geothermal tax credit, and then maybe there's a CEPI loan in there."

"New Mexican Values: 'But then I think the other sort of intangible ingredient that really brings it all together in New Mexico is our New Mexican values of neighborliness where we we don't really compete with each other. We just wanna help each other out.'"

"Uniting Perspectives for Global Solutions": "So my advice would be find someone who disagrees with you, find someone who confuses you, and ask them a question and get curious about why they see things the way they do and listen to it because they're probably looking at the same problem as you from the other side of the room."
