Trio of bills could boost Nev.’s clean-energy economy
By Mick Akers, Las Vegas Sun
Three major clean energy bills were passed through their respective committees last week at the Nevada Legislature to get them a step closer to becoming law.
Assembly Bills 206 and 223 and Senate Bill 150 were passed with amendments this week before Friday’s first house passage deadline.
A report carried out by ICF International and commissioned by the Natural Resources Defense Council indicates the bills could increase Nevada’s renewable energy and energy efficient share, drawing up to $3.3 billion in capital investments.
