NV Energy has sufficiently proved to state energy regulators that it needs additional wildfire insurance, but the utility has so far failed to convince them that asking its customers to shell out hundreds of millions of dollars is the best way to increase its coverage.

Increasing power bills and significant cutbacks in Nevada’s burgeoning solar industry are among some of the consequences that clean energy experts say to expect from the recent passage of President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

NV Energy’s request for its Southern Nevada customers to reimburse it for millions of dollars of expenses, including limousine transportation and alcoholic beverages, has experts calling it problematic.

We are tracking more than 60 promises the Nevada governor has made from his time on the campaign trail in 2022 to the end of the 2025 legislative session.

NV Energy is asking state energy regulators to change the formula of how it bills customers in Southern Nevada — a change the utility says would give customers more decision-making power around energy efficiency, but that accountability groups argue would be confusing and expensive for customers.

Just two weeks after an investigation found that NV Energy overcharged tens of thousands of customers over the span of more than two decades, likely resulting in the shutoff of electricity for some customers, state lawmakers have stalled a bill that would require the utility to provide quarterly updates of where utility shut offs are occurring in the state.

A massive NV Energy transmission line project set to transect some of the state’s most pristine undeveloped land is being challenged in a lawsuit filed Wednesday by two Nevada conservation groups.

Brandon Barkhuff, NV Energy’s general counsel, will serve as the new leader of the electric utility that serves most of Nevada.

After a lengthy lobbying blitz, Republicans’ approach veered more toward a gutting of the bill — phasing out key credits and hampering the ones that have been preserved — rather than a more fine-tuned one.

NV Energy has overcharged tens of thousands of customers by millions of dollars since 2001, according to a state investigation by energy regulators released Wednesday.

While coming large-scale lithium mines and their future employees will bring revenue and jobs to rural Nevada communities hungry for an economic jolt, they’ll also bring growing pains. Rural counties will be on the hook to come up with the money to fund critical infrastructure and other expenses — but, with proceeds from the mines not reaching the counties until production is underway, those same counties have limited ways to prepare or pay for expenses in advance.

With a Republican Congress preparing for massive spending cuts, Nevada’s solar industry is worried about its future.

A bill making its way through the Legislature asks state energy regulators to search for a way to mitigate power bill volatility when fuel prices spike by potentially requiring NV Energy to have more skin in the game.

Nevada’s active and aspiring lithium developers are undeterred by the swing in global lithium prices, with the state's only active mine seeking to double its size and its two fully-permitted projects also moving forward.

President Donald Trump’s Unleashing American Energy executive order has pulled the plug on funding for many Nevada initiatives, including one that would install electric vehicle charging stations on state highways.

Energy regulators have approved a plan by NV Energy to convert the utility's last coal plant to natural gas. But it's what's happened since the plant’s conversion was approved that has watchdogs and conservationists frustrated.

State agencies and groups have diligently applied for their share of various federal pots for renewable energy and energy efficiency improvement goals, from electric school buses to solar installations to electric appliance rebates.

As part of the Trump administration's push to expand U.S. energy production, federal officials will review and consider redrawing the boundaries of national monuments created under previous presidents to protect unique landscapes and cultural resources.

Hailed at the time as a breakthrough moment for clean energy, the Ivanpah plant has been struggling to compete with cheaper solar technologies.

Between 2016 and 2020, it is estimated utility infrastructure caused nearly one-fifth of all wildfires. Major utilities found responsible for some of them, such as California’s PG&E, were forced to file for bankruptcy after being unable to pay for damages caused by the fires, an outcome NV Energy is looking to avoid. Now, the utility is now asking state energy regulators to approve a $500 million wildfire self-insurance policy to protect it in case its equipment sparks a blaze.
