NV Energy’s subsidary Sierra Pacific Power proposed a plan to acquire a Calpine combined cycle plant based in Arizona for $76 million, with plans to invest $21 million in the the facility and a proposal to spend $39.9 million on energy efficiency program, according to its Integrated Resource Plan filed with Nevada officials last week, Las Vegas Sun reports.
The plan also includes a bid for more time to provide the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada an analysis of the environmental and economic impacts of renewable resources, which was required by a procedural order issued by the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada (PUCN) earlier this year.
