NV Energy to Replace Coal Plant with Solar Plus Storage System

One of the plants, the Iron Point Solar Project, would be a 250 MW solar PV system paired with 200 MW of battery storage. The second project, the Hot Pot Solar Project, would be a 350 MW solar PV system paired with 280 MW of battery storage. Both projects are expected to be completed by December 2023 and December 2024, respectively.

NV Energy also plans to construct three grid-tied battery energy storage systems in northern Nevada to provide 66 MW of energy storage capacity to be dispatched during periods of high demand. The utility also wants to implement a trial program to deploy small-scale solar plus storage systems to customers in low-income and underserved communities.
