CARSON CITY, NEVADA — The Public Utilities Fee of Nevada launched a draft order that may make rooftop photo voltaic costlier for Nevadans.
Wil Gehl, Intermountain West Regional senior supervisor for the Photo voltaic Power Industries Affiliation (SEIA), mentioned the next in response to the draft order:
“The draft order issued by the Nevada PUC unfairly imposes a compulsory demand cost on all residential clients in southern Nevada and rewrites the foundations for brand spanking new photo voltaic clients in northern Nevada. The draft order additionally contradicts the legislature’s intent when it restored internet metering in Nevada. This can be a vital step backward that makes photo voltaic much less accessible for Nevada households, and we urge the Commissioners to alter course.
“With the federal authorities abruptly ending its assist of residential photo voltaic, Nevadans now face a fair larger hurdle to accessing one of many few methods to cut back their electrical energy payments. The draft resolution discourages non-public funding in dependable, reasonably priced, clear power at a time when the grid wants each electron it may possibly get to energy Nevada’s financial system.”
In response to the U.S. Photo voltaic Market Perception Q3 2025 report by SEIA and Wooden Mackenzie, over 144,000 Nevada houses have photo voltaic, and Nevada has the threerd-most residential photo voltaic capability per capita of any state.
