Albuquerque, a solar power center
New Mexico's sunny skies and renewable energy-friendly legislative climate have persuaded another solar startup company to plan a manufacturing plant here. SkyFuel LLC plans to build a factory in Albuquerque's Mesa Del Sol development to produce solar power generators using technology developed in Australia.
SkyFuel picked Albuquerque because of the laws that engourage utilities to use renewable energy,access to scientific talent from the Sandia National laboratories and opportunities to sell their product in the sun-rich southwest. They hope to have the project running within about five years,and would create 100 to 200 jobs.
In January, Advent Solar Inc. broke ground for a research,development and photovoltaic-cel factory at Mesa Del Sol that could employ as many as 1,000 people in a few years. In April, a partnership of two Arizona based companies, New Solar Ventures and Solar Torx, announced plans to build a photovoltaic factory and power plant near Deming NM.
