Nevada AB458 revises energy provisions, focusing on net metering and solar access programs.

Nevada AB458 amends energy regulations to ensure fair net metering practices and expand solar access. It mandates that electric utilities cannot charge customer-generators differently based on their net metering systems. The bill also establishes an expanded solar access program for low-income customers, requiring utilities to offer a mix of community-based and utility-scale solar resources. Additionally, it sets standards for solar-powered affordable housing systems, ensuring equitable allocation of benefits among tenants.
