- Nevada’s Latest and Greatest RPS
It’s looking like a bright future ahead for Nevada. Lawmakers hit the ground running in February 2017 and began the first steps in implementing a new RPS for the state with AB 206 stating that 40% of Nevada’s energy needs to be from renewable sources by 2030.
- Establishing Guidelines for a Solar Community Program
Although vetoed, SB 392 will be returning to the Nevada Senate floor in 2019. This bill would mean that the state will need to establish guidelines for a community solar program, including provisions allowing up to $1 million in incentives for low-income solar projects.
- ‘Grandfathering’ Proposal Benefiting Current Rooftop Solar Consumers
On January 25th, 2016, NV Energy announced a ‘grandfathering’ proposal that would allow existing rooftop solar customers to continue to receive rates under the existing rules for up to 20-years. This proposal was voted on and passed in September 2016.
