NV Energy Seeks Proposals for Additional 100 Megawatts of Renewable Energy (News Release)

2014 and 2015 RFP is for a total of 200 MW Renewable Energy


NV Energy has announced that it is seeking proposals to secure an additional 100 megawatts of renewable energy resources for Southern Nevada customers as part of its 2015 Request for Proposals (RFP) for renewable energy resources.  The 2015 RFP will be combined with the previously issued 2014 renewable energy RFP for a total of up to 200 megawatts of new renewable energy resources.

The company had issued a 100-megawatt Renewable Energy RFP in October 2014, with plans to issue an additional 100 megawatt RFP in late 2015. However, in response to comments raised by the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada and interested stakeholders regarding the ability to develop additional renewable energy resources prior to the expiration of certain federal energy tax credits and other public-interest benefits, the Commission recently issued an order that requested NV Energy to accelerate issuance of the 2015 RFP and combine it with the previously-issued 2014 RFP for evaluation and negotiations with winning bidders. Bidders in the original 2014 RFP will be provided an opportunity to refresh their original proposals.  More information.........
