Biden’s Permitting Office to Help New Mexico With Renewables
The White House’s internal permitting office struck an agreement on Thursday to streamline the buildout of renewable energy in New Mexico, the first such partnership in the agency’s history.
Under the agreement, the Federal Permitting Improvement Steering Council has formally agreed to lend its services to help the New Mexico Renewable Energy Transmission Authority (RETA) with its portfolio of renewable energy transmission and storage projects.
More such agreements could be in the offing, according to Eric Beightel, the Permitting Council’s executive director.
