* The Farmington Electric Utility System (FEUS) is owned and operated by the City of Farmington, serving approximately 46,000 metered customers.  Its service territory covers 1,718 square miles and encompasses the city, much of San Juan County, and a small portion of Rio Arriba County.
* As of June 2021, the City generates approximately 36% of its consumed power from its own gas-fired generation facilities, 17% from the [[Navajo Dam]] hydroelectric facility, and the remainder purchased from third party generation resources.
* Aside from Navajo Lake (where generation facilities were established in 1988), a nominal amount of expansion of its owned generation facilities has been using renewable resources.  Renewable energy is predominantly sourced from external third parties or via purchasing agreements with [[Net metering|net metered]] facilities in its service area.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Farmington Electric Utility System {{!}} Farmington, NM - Official Website |url=https://www.fmtn.org/181/Farmington-Electric-Utility-System |access-date=2022-11-10 |website=www.fmtn.org}}</ref>
