NV Energy seeks right to stick ratepayers with Greenlink bill
AUGUST 2, 2022
When NV Energy turned to Nevada lawmakers last year to salvage a massive transmission line project that state utility regulators had already partially denied because of the potential cost to ratepayers, the utility’s CEO testified any increase to customers was years away.
“We will put thousands of people to work today and Nevadans will not be asked to pay for this investment until at least five to six years down the road.” NV Energy’s Doug Cannon told legislators, who approved the $2.5 billion project, known as Greenlink Nevada.
