Creation of a wholesale energy market in the West got a stamp of approval from Nevada last week when a legislative committee sent a letter to state officials urging them to support western regionalization – and citing AEE’s principles for doing so. “The West may meet its near-term clean energy policy targets” with current arrangements, committee chair Daniele Monroe-Moreno wrote. “However, to achieve long-term clean energy targets, western states and utilities must move towards even more flexible options and coordinated operations.”
The letter from the Nevada Interim Committee on Energy to Governor Sisolak, Office of Energy Director David Bobzien, Public Utilities Commission of Nevada Chairwoman Hayley Williamson, and President and CEO of NV Energy Doug Cannon came as a result of a year-long study of critical issues facing the state’s electricity sector.
